Psalms 21
1 For the music director. A psalm of David. The king celebrates your strength, Lord; he is so happy you made him victorious!
Kwa mwimbishaji. Zaburi ya Daudi. Ee Bwana, mfalme huzifurahia nguvu zako. Tazama jinsi ilivyo kuu furaha yake kwa ushindi unaompa!
2 You gave him everything he wanted; you didn't hold anything back he asked for.
Umempa haja ya moyo wake na hukumzuilia maombi ya midomo yake.
3 You welcomed him on his return with special blessings; you placed a crown of pure gold on his head.
Ulimkaribisha kwa baraka tele na kumvika taji ya dhahabu safi kichwani pake.
4 He asked you to give him a good life, and you gave him a long life, forever and ever.
Alikuomba maisha, nawe ukampa, wingi wa siku milele na milele.
5 Your victories brought him great glory; you granted him splendor and majesty.
Kutokana na ushindi uliompa, utukufu wake ni mkubwa, umeweka juu yake fahari na utukufu.
6 You give him blessings forever. He is full of joy because you are with him.
Hakika umempa baraka za milele, umemfanya awe na furaha kwa shangwe ya uwepo wako.
7 For the king trusts in the Lord; he stands firm because of the trustworthy love of the Most High.
Kwa kuwa mfalme anamtumaini Bwana; kwa upendo usiokoma wa Aliye Juu Sana hatatikiswa.
8 You, the king, will find and capture all your enemies; you will seize everyone who hates you.
Mkono wako utawashika adui zako wote, mkono wako wa kuume utawakamata adui zako.
9 When you appear on the scene you will burn them up like in a furnace; the Lord in his anger will destroy them, burning them up with fire.
Wakati utakapojitokeza utawafanya kama tanuru ya moto. Katika ghadhabu yake Bwana atawameza, moto wake utawateketeza.
10 You will wipe out their children from the earth, their descendants from humankind.
Utawaangamiza wazao wao kutoka duniani, uzao wao kutoka wanadamu.
11 Though they plot evil against you, their malicious schemes will not succeed.
Ingawa watapanga mabaya dhidi yako na kutunga hila, hawawezi kufanikiwa,
12 They will turn and run away when they see your arrows fired at them.
kwa kuwa utawafanya wakimbie utakapowalenga usoni pao kwa mshale kutoka kwenye upinde wako.
13 Rise up, Lord, for you are strong! We will sing and praise your power!
Ee Bwana, utukuzwe katika nguvu zako, tutaimba na kusifu nguvu zako.
