Psalms 21

1 For the end, a Psalm of David. O Lord, the king shall rejoice in thy strength; and in thy salvation he shall greatly exult.

Kwa kiongozi wa muziki. Zaburi ya Daudi. Mfalme anashangilia katika uweza wako, Yahwe! Ni kwa namna kuu anashangilia katika wokovu uliouleta!

2 Thou hast granted him the desire of his soul, and hast not withheld from him the request of his lips. (Pause)

Wewe umempa yeye matamanio ya moyo wake na hauja mkatalia maombi midomo yake.

3 For thou hast prevented him with blessings of goodness: thou has set upon his head a crown of precious stone.

Kwa kuwa wewe unamletea baraka nyingi; wewe uliweka katika kichwa chake taji ya dhahabu iliyo safi kabisa.

4 He asked life of thee, and thou gavest him length of days for ever and ever.

Yeye alikuomba wewe maisha; ukampatia maisha; wewe ulimpatia maisha malefu milele na milele.

5 His glory is great in thy salvation: thou wilt crown him with glory and majesty.

Yeye utukufu wake ni mkuu kwa sababu ya ushindi wako; wewe umemuwekea mapambo na enzi.

6 For thou wilt give him a blessing for ever and ever: thou wilt gladden him with joy with thy countenance.

Kwa kuwa unampatia yeye baraka za kudumu; unamfurahisha kwa furaha ya uwepo wako.

7 For the king trusts in the Lord, and through the mercy of the Highest he shall not be moved.

Kwa kuwa Mfalme humwamini Yahwe; kwa kupitia uaminifu wa agano la aliye juu zaidi yeye hataondolewa.

8 Let thy hand be found by all thine enemies: let thy right hand find all that hate thee.

Mkono wako utawakamata adui zangu wote wote; mkono wako wa kuume utawakamata wale wote wanao kuchukia.

9 Thou shalt make them as a fiery oven at the time of thy presence: the Lord shall trouble them in his anger, and fire shall devour them.

Wakati wa hasira yako, wewe utawachoma kama katika tanuru la moto. Yahwe atawamaliza wao katika hasira yake, na moto utawateketeza upesi wao.

10 Thou shalt destroy their fruit from the earth, and their seed from [among] the sons of men.

Wewe utawaangamiza watoto wao duniani na ukoo wao kutoka katika mrorongo wa wanadamu.

11 For they intended evils against thee; they imagined a device which they shall by no means be able to perform.

Kwa kuwa walikusudia kukufanyia mambo maovu wewe; wao walitunga njama ambayo kwayo hawawezi kufanikiwa!

12 For thou shalt make them [turn their] back in thy latter end, thou wilt prepare their face.

Kwa kuwa wewe utawarudisha nyuma; wewe utafyatua upinde wako mbele yao.

13 Be thou exalted, O Lord, in thy strength: we will sing and praise thy mighty acts.

Uninuliwe, Yahwe, katika uweza wako; tutaimba na kusifu nguvu zako.
