< Psalms 62 >

1 To the chief music-maker. After Jeduthun. A Psalm. Of David. My soul, put all your faith in God; for from him comes my salvation.
Katika ukimya ninamsubiri Mungu pekee; wokovu wangu watoka kwake.
2 He only is my Rock and my salvation; he is my high tower; I will not be greatly moved.
Yeye pekee ni mwamba wangu na wokovu wangu; yeye ni mnara wangu mrefu; sitasogezwa kamwe.
3 How long will you go on designing evil against a man? running against him as against a broken wall, which is on the point of falling?
Mpaka lini, ninyi nyote, mtamshambulia mtu, ili kwamba mumpindue yeye kama ukuta ulio inama au kama fensi isiyo imara?
4 Their only thought is to put him down from his place of honour; their delight is in deceit: blessing is in their mouths but cursing in their hearts. (Selah)
Wanashauliana naye ili tu kumshusha chini kutoka kwenye nafasi yake heshimiwa; wao wanapenda kuongea uongo; wanambariki yeye kwa midomo yao, lakini mioyoni mwao wana mlaani yeye. (Selah)
5 My soul, put all your faith in God; for from him comes my hope.
Katika ukimya ninamsubiri Mungu pekee; kwa maana matumaini yangu yako kwake.
6 He only is my Rock and my salvation; he is my high tower; I will not be greatly moved.
Yeye pekee ni mwamba wangu na wokovu wangu; yeye ni mnara wangu mrefu; sitasogezwa.
7 In God is my salvation, and my glory; the Rock of my strength, and my safe place.
Na Mungu ni wokovu wangu na utukufu wangu; mwamba wa nguvu yangu na kimbilio langu salama liko katika Mungu.
8 Have faith in him at all times, you people; let your hearts go flowing out before him: God is our safe place. (Selah)
Mwaminini Mungu wakati wote, ninyi watu; mimina moyo wako mbele zake; Mungu ni kimbilio salama kwa ajili yetu. (Selah)
9 Truly men of low birth are nothing, and men of high position are not what they seem; if they are put in the scales together they are less than a breath.
Hakika watu wenye msimamo mdogo ni ubatili, na watu wenye msimamo mkubwa ni waongo; wao watakuwa wepesi kwenye mzani; uzito wao pamoja ni wepesi kuliko kitu chochote.
10 Have no faith in the rewards of evil-doing, or in profits wrongly made: if your wealth is increased, do not put your hopes on it.
Usiamini katika ukandamizaji au wizi; usitumainie utajiri, maana hawatazaa matunda; usiuweke moyo wako kwenye hivyo.
11 Once has God said, twice has it come to my ears, that power is God's:
Mungu ameongea mara moja, mara mbili nimesikia hili: nguvu ni za Mungu.
12 And mercy, O Lord, is yours, for you give to every man the reward of his work.
Pia kwako, Bwana, ni uaminifu wa agano, maana humlipa kila mtu kwa kile alichokifanya.
