Psalms 21
1 TO THE OVERSEER. A PSALM OF DAVID. YHWH, the king is joyful in Your strength, How greatly he rejoices in Your salvation.
Kwa kiongozi wa muziki. Zaburi ya Daudi. Mfalme anashangilia katika uweza wako, Yahwe! Ni kwa namna kuu anashangilia katika wokovu uliouleta!
2 You gave the desire of his heart to him, And You have not withheld the request of his lips. (Selah)
Wewe umempa yeye matamanio ya moyo wake na hauja mkatalia maombi midomo yake.
3 For You put blessings of goodness before him, You set a crown of fine gold on his head.
Kwa kuwa wewe unamletea baraka nyingi; wewe uliweka katika kichwa chake taji ya dhahabu iliyo safi kabisa.
4 He has asked for life from You, You have given length of days to him, For all time and forever.
Yeye alikuomba wewe maisha; ukampatia maisha; wewe ulimpatia maisha malefu milele na milele.
5 Great [is] his glory in Your salvation, You place splendor and majesty on him.
Yeye utukufu wake ni mkuu kwa sababu ya ushindi wako; wewe umemuwekea mapambo na enzi.
6 For You make him blessings forever, You cause him to rejoice with joy, By Your countenance.
Kwa kuwa unampatia yeye baraka za kudumu; unamfurahisha kwa furaha ya uwepo wako.
7 For the king is trusting in YHWH, And in the kindness of the Most High he is not moved.
Kwa kuwa Mfalme humwamini Yahwe; kwa kupitia uaminifu wa agano la aliye juu zaidi yeye hataondolewa.
8 Your hand comes to all Your enemies, Your right hand finds Your haters.
Mkono wako utawakamata adui zangu wote wote; mkono wako wa kuume utawakamata wale wote wanao kuchukia.
9 You make them as a furnace of fire, At the time of Your presence. YHWH swallows them in His anger, And fire devours them.
Wakati wa hasira yako, wewe utawachoma kama katika tanuru la moto. Yahwe atawamaliza wao katika hasira yake, na moto utawateketeza upesi wao.
10 You destroy their fruit from earth, And their seed from the sons of men.
Wewe utawaangamiza watoto wao duniani na ukoo wao kutoka katika mrorongo wa wanadamu.
11 For they stretched out evil against You, They devised a wicked scheme, they do not prevail,
Kwa kuwa walikusudia kukufanyia mambo maovu wewe; wao walitunga njama ambayo kwayo hawawezi kufanikiwa!
12 For You make them turn their back, When You prepare Your strings against their faces.
Kwa kuwa wewe utawarudisha nyuma; wewe utafyatua upinde wako mbele yao.
13 Be exalted, O YHWH, in Your strength, We sing and we praise Your might!
Uninuliwe, Yahwe, katika uweza wako; tutaimba na kusifu nguvu zako.
