< Psalms 108 >

1 A SONG. A PSALM OF DAVID. My heart is prepared, O God, I sing, indeed, I sing praise, also my glory.
Wimbo. Zaburi ya Daudi. Ee Mungu, moyo wangu ni thabiti; nitaimba na kusifu kwa moyo wangu wote.
2 Awake, stringed instrument and harp, I awake the dawn.
Amka, kinubi na zeze! Nitayaamsha mapambazuko.
3 I thank You among peoples, O YHWH, And I praise You among the nations.
Nitakusifu wewe, Ee Bwana, katikati ya mataifa; nitaimba habari zako, katikati ya jamaa za watu.
4 For Your kindness [is] great above the heavens, And Your truth to the clouds.
Kwa maana upendo wako ni mkuu, ni juu kuliko mbingu; uaminifu wako unazifikia anga.
5 Be exalted above the heavens, O God, And Your glory above all the earth.
Ee Mungu, utukuzwe juu ya mbingu, utukufu wako na uenee duniani kote.
6 That Your beloved ones may be delivered, Save [with] Your right hand, and answer us.
Tuokoe na utusaidie kwa mkono wako wa kuume, ili wale uwapendao wapate kuokolewa.
7 God has spoken in His holiness: I exult, I apportion Shechem, And I measure the Valley of Succoth,
Mungu amenena kutoka patakatifu pake: “Nitaigawa Shekemu kwa ushindi na kulipima Bonde la Sukothi.
8 Gilead [is] Mine, Manasseh [is] Mine, And Ephraim [is] the strength of My head, Judah [is] My lawgiver,
Gileadi ni yangu, Manase ni yangu, Efraimu ni kofia yangu ya chuma, nayo Yuda ni fimbo yangu ya utawala.
9 Moab [is] a pot for My washing, On Edom I cast My shoe, Over Philistia I habitually shout.
Moabu ni sinia langu la kunawia, juu ya Edomu natupa kiatu changu; nashangilia kwa kushindwa kwa Ufilisti.”
10 Who brings me [into] the fortified city? Who has led me to Edom?
Ni nani atakayenipeleka hadi mji wenye ngome? Ni nani atakayeniongoza hadi nifike Edomu?
11 Have You not, O God, cast us off? And You do not go out, O God, with our hosts!
Ee Mungu, si ni wewe uliyetukataa sisi, na hutoki tena na majeshi yetu?
12 Give to us help from adversity, And the salvation of man is vain.
Tuletee msaada dhidi ya adui, kwa maana msaada wa mwanadamu haufai kitu.
13 We do mightily in God, And He treads down our adversaries!
Kwa msaada wa Mungu tutapata ushindi, naye atawaponda adui zetu.
