Psalms 91
1 The Praise of a Canticle, of David. Whoever dwells with the assistance of the Most High will abide in the protection of the God of heaven.
Yeye akaaye mahali pa salama pake Yeye Aliye Juu Sana, atadumu katika uvuli wake Mwenyezi.
2 He will say to the Lord, “You are my supporter and my refuge.” My God, I will hope in him.
Nitasema kumhusu Bwana, “Yeye ndiye kimbilio langu na ngome yangu, Mungu wangu, ambaye ninamtumaini.”
3 For he has freed me from the snare of those who go hunting, and from the harsh word.
Hakika yeye ataniokoa na mtego wa mwindaji, na maradhi ya kuambukiza ya kuua.
4 He will overshadow you with his shoulders, and you will hope under his wings.
Atakufunika kwa manyoya yake, chini ya mbawa zake utapata kimbilio, uaminifu wake utakuwa ngao na kinga yako.
5 His truth will surround you with a shield. You will not be afraid: before the terror of the night,
Hutaogopa vitisho vya usiku, wala mshale urukao mchana,
6 before the arrow flying in the day, before the troubles that wander in the darkness, nor of invasion and the midday demon.
wala maradhi ya kuambukiza yanayonyemelea gizani, wala tauni iharibuyo adhuhuri.
7 A thousand will fall before your side and ten thousand before your right hand. Yet it will not draw near you.
Ijapo watu elfu wataangukia kando yako, kumi elfu mkono wako wa kuume, lakini haitakukaribia wewe.
8 So then, truly, you will consider with your eyes, and you will see the retribution of sinners.
Utatazama tu kwa macho yako na kuona adhabu ya waovu.
9 For you, O Lord, are my hope. You have set the Most High as your refuge.
Kama ukimfanya Aliye Juu Sana kuwa makao yako: naam, Bwana ambaye ni kimbilio langu,
10 Disaster will not draw near to you, and the scourge will not approach your tabernacle.
basi hakuna madhara yatakayokupata wewe, hakuna maafa yataikaribia hema yako.
11 For he has given his Angels charge over you, so as to preserve you in all your ways.
Kwa kuwa atawaagiza malaika zake kwa ajili yako, wakulinde katika njia zako zote.
12 With their hands, they will carry you, lest you hurt your foot against a stone.
Mikononi mwao watakuinua, ili usijikwae mguu wako kwenye jiwe.
13 You will walk over the asp and the king serpent, and you will trample the lion and the dragon.
Utawakanyaga simba na nyoka wakali, simba mkubwa na nyoka utawaponda kwa miguu.
14 Because he has hoped in me, I will free him. I will protect him because he has known my name.
Bwana asema, “Kwa kuwa ananipenda, nitamwokoa; nitamlinda, kwa kuwa analikiri Jina langu.
15 He will cry out to me, and I will heed him. I am with him in tribulation. I will rescue him, and I will glorify him.
Ataniita, nami nitamjibu; nitakuwa pamoja naye katika taabu, nitamwokoa na kumheshimu.
16 I will fill him with length of days. And I will reveal to him my salvation.
Kwa siku nyingi nitamshibisha na kumwonyesha wokovu wangu.”
