Psalms 108
1 A SONG. A PSALM OF DAVID. My heart is prepared, O God, I sing, indeed, I sing praise, also my glory.
Ee Mungu, moyo wangu u thabiti; nitaimba, naam, nitaimba sifa pia kwa moyo mkuu.
2 Awake, stringed instrument and harp, I awake the dawn.
Amka, kinanda na kinubi; nitaamka alfajiri.
3 I thank You among peoples, O YHWH, And I praise You among the nations.
Nitakushukuru wewe, Yahwe, kati ya watu; nitakuimbia sifa kati ya mataifa.
4 For Your kindness [is] great above the heavens, And Your truth to the clouds.
Kwa maana uaminifu wa agano lako ni mkuu juu ya mbingu; na uaminifu wako wafika mawinguni.
5 Be exalted above the heavens, O God, And Your glory above all the earth.
Ee Mungu, uinuliwe, juu ya mbingu, na utukufu wako utukuke juu ya nchi.
6 That Your beloved ones may be delivered, Save [with] Your right hand, and answer us.
Ili kwamba wale uwapendao waokolewe, utuokoe sisi kwa mkono wako wa kuume na unijibu.
7 God has spoken in His holiness: I exult, I apportion Shechem, And I measure the Valley of Succoth,
Mungu ameongea katika utakatifu wake; “Nitashangilia; nitaigawanya Shekemu na nitalipima 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, na manase ni yangu; Ephraimu ni nguvu ya kichwa changu; Yuda ni fimbo yangu ya kifalme.
9 Moab [is] a pot for My washing, On Edom I cast My shoe, Over Philistia I habitually shout.
Moabu ni bakuli langu la kunawia; nitatupa kiatu changu juu ya Edomu; nitapaza sauti katika ushindi kwa ajili ya Filisti.
10 Who brings me [into] the fortified city? Who has led me to Edom?
Ni nani atakaye nipeleka kwenye mji imara? Ni nani atakayeniongoza mpaka Edomu?”
11 Have You not, O God, cast us off? And You do not go out, O God, with our hosts!
Ee Mungu, sio wewe uliyetukataa? Hauendi vitani na jeshi letu.
12 Give to us help from adversity, And the salvation of man is vain.
Utupe msaada dhidi ya adui yetu, maana msaada wa wanadamu ni bure.
13 We do mightily in God, And He treads down our adversaries!
Tutashinda kwa msaada wa Mungu; atawakanyaga kwa adui zetu.
