Psalms 21

1 Unto the end. A psalm for David. In thy strength, O Lord, the king shall joy; and in thy salvation he shall rejoice exceedingly.

Kwa mwimbishaji. Zaburi ya Daudi. Ee Bwana, mfalme huzifurahia nguvu zako. Tazama jinsi ilivyo kuu furaha yake kwa ushindi unaompa!

2 Thou hast given him his heart’s desire: and hast not withholden from him the will of his lips.

Umempa haja ya moyo wake na hukumzuilia maombi ya midomo yake.

3 For thou hast prevented him with blessings of sweetness: thou hast set on his head a crown of precious stones.

Ulimkaribisha kwa baraka tele na kumvika taji ya dhahabu safi kichwani pake.

4 He asked life of thee: and thou hast given him length of days for ever and ever.

Alikuomba maisha, nawe ukampa, wingi wa siku milele na milele.

5 His glory is great in thy salvation: glory and great beauty shalt thou lay upon him.

Kutokana na ushindi uliompa, utukufu wake ni mkubwa, umeweka juu yake fahari na utukufu.

6 For thou shalt give him to be a blessing for ever and ever: thou shalt make him joyful in gladness with thy countenance.

Hakika umempa baraka za milele, umemfanya awe na furaha kwa shangwe ya uwepo wako.

7 For the king hopeth in the Lord: and through the mercy of the most High he shall not be moved.

Kwa kuwa mfalme anamtumaini Bwana; kwa upendo usiokoma wa Aliye Juu Sana hatatikiswa.

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

Mkono wako utawashika adui zako wote, mkono wako wa kuume utawakamata adui zako.

9 Thou shalt make them as an oven of fire, in the time of thy anger: the Lord shall trouble them in his wrath, and fire shall devour them.

Wakati utakapojitokeza utawafanya kama tanuru ya moto. Katika ghadhabu yake Bwana atawameza, moto wake utawateketeza.

10 Their fruit shalt thou destroy from the earth: and their seed from among the children of men.

Utawaangamiza wazao wao kutoka duniani, uzao wao kutoka wanadamu.

11 For they have intended evils against thee: they have devised counsels which they have not been able to establish.

Ingawa watapanga mabaya dhidi yako na kutunga hila, hawawezi kufanikiwa,

12 For thou shalt make them turn their back: in thy remnants thou shalt prepare their face.

kwa kuwa utawafanya wakimbie utakapowalenga usoni pao kwa mshale kutoka kwenye upinde wako.

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

Ee Bwana, utukuzwe katika nguvu zako, tutaimba na kusifu nguvu zako.
