Psalms 5
1 For the Leader; upon the Nehiloth. A Psalm of David. Give ear to my words, O LORD, consider my (meditation)
Sikiliza nikuitapo, Yahweh; tazama kuugua kwangu.
2 Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God; for unto Thee do I pray.
Sikiliza sauti yangu nikuitapo, Ee Mfalme wangu na Mungu wangu, kwa kuwa ni kwako Bwana naomba.
3 O LORD, in the morning shalt Thou hear my voice; in the morning will I order my prayer unto Thee, and will look forward.
Yahweh; sikia kilio changu asubuhi; na asubuhi nitaleta dua yangu kwako na kungoja kwa matarajio.
4 For Thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness; evil shall not sojourn with Thee.
Hakika wewe ni Mungu usiye kubaliana na uovu; watu waovu hawawezi kuwa wageni wako.
5 The boasters shall not stand in Thy sight; Thou hatest all workers of iniquity.
Wenye kiburi hawata simama katika uwepo wako; wewe unawachukia wote wanaofanya maovu.
6 Thou destroyest them that speak falsehood; the LORD abhorreth the man of blood and of deceit.
Nawe utawaharibu waongo; Yahweh huwadharau vurugu na watu wadanganyifu.
7 But as for me, in the abundance of Thy lovingkindness will I come into Thy house; I will bow down toward Thy holy temple in the fear of Thee.
Lakini kwangu mimi, kwa sababu ya ukuu na uaminifu wa agano lako, nitakuja nyumbani mwako; na kwa heshima nitakuinamia mbele ya hekalu lako takatifu.
8 O LORD, lead me in Thy righteousness because of them that lie in wait for me; make Thy way straight before my face.
Oh Bwana, uniongoze katika haki yako kwa sababu ya adui zangu; usawazishe njia yako mbele yangu.
9 For there is no sincerity in their mouth; their inward part is a yawning gulf, their throat is an open sepulchre; they make smooth their tongue.
Kwa kuwa midomoni mwao hamna ukweli; utu wao wa ndani ni mwovu; makoo yao ni kaburi lililo wazi; husifu kinafiki kwa ulimi wao.
10 Hold them guilty, O God, let them fall by their own counsels; cast them down in the multitude of their transgressions; for they have rebelled against Thee.
Mungu, wafanye kuwa na hatia; mipango yao iwe kuanguka kwao! Kwa ajili ya makosa yao mengi uwatoe nje, kwa kuwa wamekuasi wewe.
11 So shall all those that take refuge in Thee rejoice, they shall ever shout for joy, and Thou shalt shelter them; let them also that love Thy name exult in Thee.
Bali wale wanao kukimbilia wafurahi; uwafanye wapige kelele kwa shangwe siku zote kwa sababu unawapigania; uwafanye wenye furaha ndani yako, wale walipendao jina lako.
12 For Thou dost bless the righteous; O LORD, Thou dost encompass him with favour as with a shield.
Kwa maana utawabariki wenye haki, Yahweh; utawazunguka kwa neema kama ngao.
