< Psalms 61 >
1 To the chief Musician. On a stringed instrument. [A Psalm] of David. Hear, O God, my cry; attend unto my prayer.
Sikia kulia kwangu, shughulikia maombi yangu.
2 From the end of the earth will I call unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: thou wilt lead me on to a rock which is too high for me.
Kutokea mwisho wa nchi nitakuita wewe wakati moyo wangu umeelemewa; uniongoze kwenye mwamba ulio juu kuliko mimi.
3 For thou hast been a refuge for me, a strong tower from before the enemy.
Maana wewe umekuwa kimbilio langu la usalama, nguzo imara dhidi ya adui.
4 I will sojourn in thy tent for ever; I will take refuge in the covert of thy wings. (Selah)
Uniache niishi hemani mwako milele! Nipate kimbilio salama chini ya makazi ya mbawa zako. (Selah)
5 For thou, O God, hast heard my vows; thou hast given [me] the inheritance of those that fear thy name.
Kwa kuwa wewe, Mungu, umesikia viapo vyangu, wewe umenipa mimi urithi wa wale wanao liheshimu jina lako.
6 Thou wilt add days to the days of the king: his years shall be as many generations.
Wewe utaongeza maisha ya mfalme; miaka yake itakuwa kama vizazi vingi.
7 He shall abide before God for ever: bestow loving-kindness and truth, that they may preserve him.
Yeye atabakia mbele ya Mungu milele.
8 So will I sing forth thy name for ever, performing my vows from day to day.
Nitaliimbia sifa jina lako milele ili kwamba niweze kufanya viapo vyangu kila siku.
