Psalms 41
1 To him that excelleth. A Psalme of Dauid. Blessed is he that iudgeth wisely of the poore: the Lord shall deliuer him in ye time of trouble.
Amebarikiwa mtu yule amkumbukaye mnyonge; katika siku ya taabu, Yahwe atamuokoa.
2 The Lord will keepe him, and preserue him aliue: he shalbe blessed vpon the earth, and thou wilt not deliuer him vnto the will of his enemies.
Yahwe atamuhifadhi na kumuweka hai, naye atabarikiwa duniani; Yahwe hata mrudisha kwenye mapenzi ya adui zake.
3 The Lord wil strengthen him vpon ye bed of sorow: thou hast turned al his bed in his sicknes.
Awapo kwenye kitanda cha mateso Yahwe atamsaidia; nawe utakifanya kitanda cha ugonjwa kuwa kitanda cha uponyaji.
4 Therefore I saide, Lord haue mercie vpon me: heale my soule, for I haue sinned against thee.
Nami nilisema, “Yahwe unihurumie! Uniponye, kwa maana nimekutenda dhambi wewe.”
5 Mine enemies speake euill of me, saying, When shall he die, and his name perish?
Adui zangu huongea maovu dhidi yangu, wakisema, 'Atakufa lini na jina lake lipotee?'
6 And if hee come to see mee, hee speaketh lies, but his heart heapeth iniquitie within him, and when he commeth foorth, he telleth it.
Adui yangu ajapo kuniona, huongea mambo yasiyo na maana; moyo wake hukusanya maafa yangu kwa ajili yake mwenyewe; na aondokapo kwangu, yeye huwaambia watu wengine kuhusu hayo.
7 All they that hate me, whisper together against me: euen against me do they imagine mine hurt.
Wale wote wanaonichukia kwa pamoja hunon'gona dhidi yangu; nao wanafarijika kwa ajili ya maumivu yangu.
8 A mischiefe is light vpon him, and he that lyeth, shall no more rise.
Wakisema, “Gonjwa baya limemshikilia yeye haswa; na sasa kuwa amelala kitandani, hatainuka kamwe.”
9 Yea, my familiar friend, whom I trusted, which did eate of my bread, hath lifted vp the heele against me.
Kweli, hata rafiki yangu wa karibu, ambae nilimuamini, aliye kula mkate wangu, ameinua kisigino chake dhidi yangu.
10 Therefore, O Lord, haue mercy vpon mee, and raise me vp: so I shall reward them.
Bali wewe, Yahwe, unihurumie na uniinue ili kwamba niwalipizie kisasi.
11 By this I know that thou fauourest me, because mine enemie doth not triumph against me.
Na hivi nitajua kuwa unafurahishwa nami, kwa kuwa adui yangu hatafurahia kunishinda.
12 And as for me, thou vpholdest me in mine integritie, and doest set me before thy face for euer.
Kwangu mimi, wewe unanisaidia katika uadilifu wangu na utaniweka mbele ya uso wako milele.
13 Blessed be the Lord God of Israel worlde without ende. So be it, euen so be it.
Yahwe, Mungu wa Israeli asifiwe milele na milele. Amen na Amen. Kitabu ya Pili
