Psalms 5
1 To the chief Musician. Upon Nehiloth. A Psalm of David. Give ear to my words, O Jehovah; consider my (meditation)
Sikiliza nikuitapo, Yahweh; tazama kuugua kwangu.
2 Hearken unto the voice of my crying, my king and my God; for to thee will I pray.
Sikiliza sauti yangu nikuitapo, Ee Mfalme wangu na Mungu wangu, kwa kuwa ni kwako Bwana naomba.
3 Jehovah, in the morning shalt thou hear my voice; in the morning will I address myself to thee, and will look up.
Yahweh; sikia kilio changu asubuhi; na asubuhi nitaleta dua yangu kwako na kungoja kwa matarajio.
4 For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness; evil shall not sojourn with thee.
Hakika wewe ni Mungu usiye kubaliana na uovu; watu waovu hawawezi kuwa wageni wako.
5 Insolent fools shall not stand before thine eyes; thou hatest all workers of iniquity.
Wenye kiburi hawata simama katika uwepo wako; wewe unawachukia wote wanaofanya maovu.
6 Thou wilt destroy them that speak lies: Jehovah abhorreth a man of blood and deceit.
Nawe utawaharibu waongo; Yahweh huwadharau vurugu na watu wadanganyifu.
7 But as for me, in the greatness of thy loving-kindness will I enter thy house; I will bow down toward the temple of thy holiness in thy fear.
Lakini kwangu mimi, kwa sababu ya ukuu na uaminifu wa agano lako, nitakuja nyumbani mwako; na kwa heshima nitakuinamia mbele ya hekalu lako takatifu.
8 Lead me, Jehovah, in thy righteousness, because of my foes; make thy way plain before me.
Oh Bwana, uniongoze katika haki yako kwa sababu ya adui zangu; usawazishe njia yako mbele yangu.
9 For there is no certainty in their mouth; their inward part is perversion, their throat is an open sepulchre; they flatter with their tongue.
Kwa kuwa midomoni mwao hamna ukweli; utu wao wa ndani ni mwovu; makoo yao ni kaburi lililo wazi; husifu kinafiki kwa ulimi wao.
10 Bring guilt upon them, O God; let them fall by their own counsels: drive them out in the multitude of their transgressions, for they have rebelled against thee.
Mungu, wafanye kuwa na hatia; mipango yao iwe kuanguka kwao! Kwa ajili ya makosa yao mengi uwatoe nje, kwa kuwa wamekuasi wewe.
11 And all that trust in thee shall rejoice: for ever shall they shout joyously, and thou wilt protect them; and they that love thy name shall exult in thee.
Bali wale wanao kukimbilia wafurahi; uwafanye wapige kelele kwa shangwe siku zote kwa sababu unawapigania; uwafanye wenye furaha ndani yako, wale walipendao jina lako.
12 For thou, Jehovah, wilt bless the righteous [man]; with favour wilt thou surround him as [with] a shield.
Kwa maana utawabariki wenye haki, Yahweh; utawazunguka kwa neema kama ngao.
