Psalms 30

1 I will extol thee, O Yhwh; for thou hast lifted me up, and hast not made my foes to rejoice over me.

Nitakutukuza wewe, Yahwe, kwa kuwa umeniinua na haujawaruhusu maadui zangu juu yangu.

2 O Yhwh my God, I cried unto thee, and thou hast healed me.

Yahwe Mungu wangu, nilikulilia wewe kwa ajili ya msaada, nawe ukaniponya.

3 O Yhwh, thou hast brought up my soul from the grave: thou hast kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit. (Sheol h7585)

Yahwe, wewe umeitoa roho yangu kuzimuni; nawe umeniweka hai mbali na kaburi. (Sheol h7585)

4 Sing unto Yhwh, O ye saints of his, and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness.

Mwimbieni sifa Yahwe, ninyi waaminifu wake! Mshukuruni Bwana mkumbukapo utakatifu wake.

5 For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favour is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.

Kwa kuwa hasira yake ni ya muda tu; bali neema yake yadumu milele. Kilio huja usiku, bali furaha huja asubuhi.

6 And in my prosperity I said, I shall never be moved.

Kwa ujasiri nilisema, “Sitatikiswa kamwe.”

7 Yhwh, by thy favour thou hast made my mountain to stand strong: thou didst hide thy face, and I was troubled.

Yahwe, kwa neema yako uliniweka mimi kama mlima imara; lakini ulipouficha uso wako, nilisumbuka.

8 I cried to thee, O Yhwh; and unto Yhwh I made supplication.

Nilikulilia wewe, Yahwe, na kuomba msaada kwa Bwana wangu!

9 What profit is there in my blood, when I go down to the pit? Shall the dust praise thee? shall it declare thy truth?

Kuna faida gani katika kifo changu, kama nitaenda kaburini? Je, mavumbi yatakusifu wewe? Yatatangaza uaminifu wako?

10 Hear, O Yhwh, and have mercy upon me: Yhwh, be thou my helper.

Sikia, Yahwe, na unihurumie! Yahwe, uwe msaidizi wangu.

11 Thou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing: thou hast put off my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness;

Wewe umegeuza kuomboleza kwangu kuwa kucheza; wewe umeyaondoa mavazi yangu ya magunia na kunivisha furaha.

12 To the end that my glory may sing praise to thee, and not be silent. O Yhwh my God, I will give thanks unto thee for ever.

Hivyo sasa utukufu wangu utakuimbia sifa wewe na hautanyamaza; Yahwe Mungu wangu, nitakushukuru wewe milele!
