< Psalms 6 >
1 “To the chief musician on Neginoth upon Sheminith, a psalm of David.” O Lord, correct me not in thy anger, and chastise me not in thy wrath.
Yahweh, usinikemee ukiwa na hasira au usiniadhibu katika gadhabu yako.
2 Be gracious unto me, O Lord; for I am withering away; heal me, O Lord; for my bones are terrified.
Unihurumie, Yahwe, kwa maana ni dhaifu; uniponye, Yahweh, kwa kuwa mifupa yangu ina tikisika.
3 And my soul is greatly terrified; but thou, O Lord, how long yet—?
Moyo wangu pia umesumbuka sana. Lakini wewe, Yahweh, mpaka lini hali hii itaendelea?
4 Return, O Lord, deliver my soul: help me for the sake of thy kindness.
Rudi, Yahweh! uniokoe. Uniokoe kwa sababu ya uaminifu wa agano lako!
5 For in death men do not remember thee: in the nether world, who shall give thee thanks? (Sheol )
kwa kuwa kifoni hakuna kumbukumbu lako. Kuzimuni ni nani atakaye kushukuru? (Sheol )
6 I am weary with my sighing; I flood every night my bed; With my tears I moisten my couch.
Nimechoshwa na kuugua kwangu. Ninalowanisha kitanda changu kwa machozi usiku kucha; ninaosha kiti changu kwa machozi.
7 My eye is consumed because of grief; it waxeth old because of all my assailants.
Macho yangu yanafifia kwa kulia sana; yanazidi kuwa dhaifu kwa sababu ya adaui zangu.
8 Depart from me, all ye workers of wickedness; for the Lord hath heard the voice of my weeping.
Ondokeni kwangu, nyote mtendao maovu; kwa kuwa Yahweh amesikia sauti ya kilio changu.
9 The Lord hath heard my supplication; the Lord will accept my prayer.
Yahweh amesikia malalamiko yangu kwa ajili ya huruma; Yahweh ameyapokea maombi yangu.
10 Ashamed and greatly terrified shall become all my enemies; they will turn round, and be made ashamed in a moment.
Maadui zangu wote wataaibishwa na kuteswa sana. Watarudi nyuma na ghafra kufedheheshwa.
