Psalms 36
1 The transgression of the wicked says within my heart, that there is no fear of God before his eyes.
Kwa mwimbishaji. Zaburi ya Daudi mtumishi wa Bwana. Kuna neno moyoni mwangu kuhusu hali ya dhambi ya mwovu. Hakuna hofu ya Mungu mbele ya macho yake.
2 For he flatters himself in his own eyes, until his iniquity be found to be hateful.
Kwa kuwa machoni pake mwenyewe hujisifu mno hata hawezi kugundua au kuichukia dhambi yake.
3 The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit: he has left off to be wise, and to do good.
Maneno ya kinywa chake ni maovu na ya udanganyifu, ameacha kuwa mwenye hekima na kutenda mema.
4 He devises mischief on his bed; he sets himself in a way that is not good; he abhors not evil.
Hata kitandani mwake hupanga hila mbaya, hujitia katika njia ya dhambi na hakatai lililo baya.
5 Your mercy, O LORD, is in the heavens; and your faithfulness reaches to the clouds.
Upendo wako, Ee Bwana, unafika hadi mbinguni, uaminifu wako hadi kwenye anga.
6 Your righteousness is like the great mountains; your judgments are a great deep: O LORD, you preserve man and beast.
Haki yako ni kama milima mikubwa, hukumu zako ni kama kilindi kikuu. Ee Bwana, wewe huwahifadhi mwanadamu na mnyama.
7 How excellent is your loving kindness, O God! therefore the children of men put their trust under the shadow of your wings.
Upendo wako usiokoma ni wa thamani mno! Watu wakuu na wadogo hujificha uvulini wa mbawa zako.
8 They shall be abundantly satisfied with the fatness of your house; and you shall make them drink of the river of your pleasures.
Wanajifurahisha katika wingi nyumbani mwako, nawe utawanywesha katika mto wa furaha zako.
9 For with you is the fountain of life: in your light shall we see light.
Kuwa pamoja nawe ni kijito cha uzima, katika nuru yako twaona nuru.
10 O continue your loving kindness to them that know you; and your righteousness to the upright in heart.
Dumisha upendo wako kwa wale wanaokujua wewe, haki yako kwa wale walio wanyofu wa moyo.
11 Let not the foot of pride come against me, and let not the hand of the wicked remove me.
Mguu wa mwenye kiburi usije dhidi yangu, wala mkono wa mwovu usinifukuze.
12 There are the workers of iniquity fallen: they are cast down, and shall not be able to rise.
Angalia jinsi watenda mabaya walivyoanguka: wametupwa chini, hawawezi kuinuka!
