Psalms 54

1 “To the chief musician on Neginoth, a Maskil of David, When the Ziphim came and said to Saul, Behold, David is hiding himself with us.” O God, by thy name save me, and by thy strength grant me justice.

Uniokoe, Mungu, kwa jina lako, na kwa nguvu zako unihukumu.

2 O God, hear my prayer; give ear to the words of my mouth.

Usikie maombi yangu, Mungu; uyategee sikio maneno ya mdomo wangu.

3 For strangers [to goodness] are risen up against me, and powerful oppressors seek after my soul: they have not set God before them. (Selah)

Kwa maana wageni wameinuka dhidi yangu, na watu wasio na huruma wanaitafuta roho yangu; nao hawakumuweka Mungu mbele yao. (Selah)

4 Behold, God is a helper unto me: the Lord is among those that uphold my soul.

Tazama, Mungu ni msaidizi wangu; Bwana ndiye anisaidiaye.

5 He will cause the evil to return upon those that regard me with envy: in thy truth cut them off.

Naye atawalipizia uovu maadui zangu; katika uaminifu wako, uwaharibu!

6 I will liberally sacrifice unto thee: I will give thanks unto thy name, O Lord; for it is good.

Nitakutolea dhabihu kwa moyo mkunjufu; nitalishukuru jina lako, Yahwe, kwa maana ni jema.

7 For out of all distress hath he delivered me: and my eye hath seen [its desire] on my enemies.

Kwa kuwa yeye ameniokoa katika kila shida; macho yangu yamewatazama adui zangu yakiwa na ushindi.
