Psalms 54

1 Unto the end, In verses, understanding for David. When the men of Ziph had come and said to Saul: Is not David hidden with us? Save me, O God, by thy name, and judge me in thy strength.

Kwa mwimbishaji. Na ala za nyuzi za uimbaji. Utenzi wa Daudi. Wakati Wazifu walimwendea Sauli na kumjulisha, “Je, Daudi hajifichi miongoni mwetu?” Ee Mungu uniokoe kwa jina lako, unifanyie hukumu kwa uwezo wako.

2 O God, hear my prayer: give ear to the words of my mouth.

Ee Mungu, sikia maombi yangu, usikilize maneno ya kinywa changu.

3 For strangers have risen up against me; and the mighty have sought after my soul: and they have not set God before their eyes.

Wageni wananishambulia, watu wakatili wanayatafuta maisha yangu, watu wasiomjali Mungu.

4 For behold God is my helper: and the Lord is the protector of my soul.

Hakika Mungu ni msaada wangu, Bwana ndiye anayenitegemeza.

5 Turn back the evils upon my enemies; and cut them off in thy truth.

Mabaya na yawarudie wale wanaonisingizia, kwa uaminifu wako uwaangamize.

6 I will freely sacrifice to thee, and will give praise, O God, to thy name: because it is good:

Nitakutolea dhabihu za hiari; Ee Bwana, nitalisifu jina lako kwa kuwa ni vyema.

7 For thou hast delivered me out of all trouble: and my eye hath looked down upon my enemies.

Kwa maana ameniokoa katika shida zangu zote, na macho yangu yamewatazama adui zangu kwa ushindi.
