Psalms 21
1 Unto the end. A Psalm of David. In your virtue, Lord, the king will rejoice, and over your salvation, he will exult exceedingly.
Kwa kiongozi wa muziki. Zaburi ya Daudi. Mfalme anashangilia katika uweza wako, Yahwe! Ni kwa namna kuu anashangilia katika wokovu uliouleta!
2 You have granted him the desire of his heart, and you have not cheated him of the wish of his lips.
Wewe umempa yeye matamanio ya moyo wake na hauja mkatalia maombi midomo yake.
3 For you have gone ahead of him with blessings of sweetness. You have placed a crown of precious stones on his head.
Kwa kuwa wewe unamletea baraka nyingi; wewe uliweka katika kichwa chake taji ya dhahabu iliyo safi kabisa.
4 He petitioned you for life, and you have granted him length of days, in the present time, and forever and ever.
Yeye alikuomba wewe maisha; ukampatia maisha; wewe ulimpatia maisha malefu milele na milele.
5 Great is his glory in your salvation. Glory and great adornment, you will lay upon him.
Yeye utukufu wake ni mkuu kwa sababu ya ushindi wako; wewe umemuwekea mapambo na enzi.
6 For you will give him as a blessing forever and ever. You will make him rejoice with gladness in your presence.
Kwa kuwa unampatia yeye baraka za kudumu; unamfurahisha kwa furaha ya uwepo wako.
7 Because the king hopes in the Lord, and in the mercy of the Most High, he will not be disturbed.
Kwa kuwa Mfalme humwamini Yahwe; kwa kupitia uaminifu wa agano la aliye juu zaidi yeye hataondolewa.
8 May your hand be found by all your enemies. May your right hand discover all those who hate you.
Mkono wako utawakamata adui zangu wote wote; mkono wako wa kuume utawakamata wale wote wanao kuchukia.
9 You will make them like an oven of fire, in the time of your presence. The Lord will stir them up with his wrath, and fire will 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 You will destroy their fruit from the earth and their offspring from the sons of men.
Wewe utawaangamiza watoto wao duniani na ukoo wao kutoka katika mrorongo wa wanadamu.
11 For they have turned evils upon you; they have devised plans, which they have not been able to accomplish.
Kwa kuwa walikusudia kukufanyia mambo maovu wewe; wao walitunga njama ambayo kwayo hawawezi kufanikiwa!
12 For you will make them turn their back; with your remnants, you will prepare their countenance.
Kwa kuwa wewe utawarudisha nyuma; wewe utafyatua upinde wako mbele yao.
13 Be exalted, Lord, by your own power. We will play music and sing psalms to your virtues.
Uninuliwe, Yahwe, katika uweza wako; tutaimba na kusifu nguvu zako.
