Psalms 5
1 “To the chief musician upon Nechiloth, a psalm of David.” To my words give ear, O Lord, have regard to my mediation.
Kwa mwimbishaji. Kwa filimbi. Zaburi ya Daudi. Ee Bwana, tegea sikio maneno yangu, uangalie kupiga kite kwangu.
2 Listen unto the voice of my loud cry, my King, and my God, when unto thee I pray.
Sikiliza kilio changu ili unisaidie, Mfalme wangu na Mungu wangu, kwa maana kwako ninaomba.
3 O Lord! in the morning do thou hear my voice: in the morning will I set in order [my prayer] before thee, and 1ook up with hope.
Asubuhi, unasikia sauti yangu, Ee Bwana; asubuhi naleta haja zangu mbele zako, na kusubiri kwa matumaini.
4 For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness: evil cannot abide with thee.
Wewe si Mungu unayefurahia uovu, kwako mtu mwovu hataishi.
5 The arrogant cannot stand up before thy eyes: thou hatest all workers of wickedness.
Wenye kiburi hawawezi kusimama mbele yako, unawachukia wote watendao mabaya.
6 Thou wilt destroy those that speak lies: the man of blood and deceit the Lord abhorreth.
Unawaangamiza wasemao uongo. Bwana huwachukia wamwagao damu na wadanganyifu.
7 But as for me—in the abundance of thy kindness will I enter thy house: I will bow myself down before thy holy temple in the fear of thee.
Lakini mimi, kwa rehema zako kuu, nitakuja katika nyumba yako, kwa unyenyekevu, nitasujudu kuelekea Hekalu lako takatifu.
8 O Lord, lead me in thy righteousness because of those that regard me enviously; make straight before me thy way.
Niongoze katika haki yako, Ee Bwana, kwa sababu ya adui zangu, nyoosha njia yako mbele yangu.
9 For there is not in their mouth any sincerity; their inward part is full of deception; an open sepulchre is their throat: they flatter with their tongue.
Hakuna neno kinywani mwao linaloweza kuaminika, mioyo yao imejaa maangamizi. Koo lao ni kaburi lililo wazi, kwa ndimi zao, wao hunena udanganyifu.
10 Condemn them, O God: let them fall through their own counsels; for the multitude of their transgressions cast them down; for they have rebelled against thee.
Uwatangaze kuwa wenye hatia, Ee Mungu! Hila zao ziwe anguko lao wenyewe. Wafukuzie mbali kwa sababu ya dhambi zao nyingi, kwa kuwa wamekuasi wewe.
11 Then will rejoice all those that put their trust in thee; for ever will they shout for joy, when thou protectest them: and then will exult in thee those that love thy name.
Lakini wote wakimbiliao kwako na wafurahi, waimbe kwa shangwe daima. Ueneze ulinzi wako juu yao, ili wale wapendao jina lako wapate kukushangilia.
12 For thou wilt bless the righteous, O Lord; as with a shield wilt thou encompass him with favor.
Kwa hakika, Ee Bwana, unawabariki wenye haki, unawazunguka kwa wema wako kama ngao.
