Psalms 72
1 [By Solomon.] God, give the king your justice; your righteousness to the royal son.
Mpe mfalme amri ya haki yako, Mungu, haki yako kwa wana wa mfalme.
2 He will judge your people with righteousness, and your poor with justice.
Naye awaamue watu wako kwa haki na maskini wako kwa haki sawa.
3 The mountains shall bring prosperity to the people. The hills bring the fruit of righteousness.
Milima iwazalie watu amani; vilima navyo vizae haki.
4 He will judge the poor of the people. He will save the children of the needy, and will break the oppressor in pieces.
Naye awahukumu watu maskini; awaokoe watoto wa wahitaji na kuwavunja vipande vipande wenye kuwatesa.
5 They shall fear you while the sun endures; and as long as the moon, throughout all generations.
Na wakuheshimu wewe wakati wa jua, na kwa kipindi cha kudumu kwa mwezi katika vizazi vyote.
6 He will come down like rain on the mown grass, as showers that water the earth.
Naye apate kuja kama mvua juu ya nyasi zilizokatwa, kama manyuyu yanyunyizayo nchi.
7 In his days, the righteous shall flourish, and abundance of peace, until the moon is no more.
Mwenye haki na astawi kwa wakati wake, na amani iwepo kwa wingi mpaka mwezi utakapotoweka.
8 He shall have dominion also from sea to sea, from the River to the farthest parts of the earth.
Na awe na mamlaka toka bahari na bahari, na kutoka Mto hadi miisho ya dunia.
9 Those who dwell in the wilderness shall bow before him. His enemies shall lick the dust.
Na wote waishio jangwani wainame mbele zake; adui zake na walambe mavumbi.
10 The kings of Tarshish and of the islands will bring tribute. The kings of Sheba and Seba shall offer gifts.
Wafalme wa Tashishi na visiwa walete kodi; wafalme wa Sheba na Seba watoe zawadi.
11 Yes, all kings shall fall down before him. All nations shall serve him.
Hakika wafalme wote wamwinamie yeye; mataifa yote yamtumikie yeye.
12 For he will deliver the needy when he cries; the poor, who has no helper.
Kwa kuwa yeye humsaidia mhitaji na maskini asiye na msaidizi.
13 He will have pity on the poor and needy. He will save the souls of the needy.
Yeye huwahurumia maskini na wahitaji, na huokoa maisha ya wahitaji.
14 He will redeem their soul from oppression and violence. Their blood will be precious in his sight.
Huyaokoa maisha yao dhidi ya mateso na vurugu, na damu yao ni ya thamani machoni pake.
15 And he shall live, and the gold of Sheba shall be given to him. Men shall pray for him continually. He shall bless him all day long.
Naye apate kuishi! Na dhahabu za Sheba apewe yeye. Watu wamuombee yeye siku zote; Mungu ambariki daima.
16 There shall be abundance of grain throughout the land. Its fruit sways like Lebanon. Let it flourish, thriving like the grass of the field.
Kuwepo na nafaka nyingi katika ardhi; juu ya milima kuwe na mawimbi ya mimea. Matunda yake yawe kama Lebanoni; watu wasitawi katika miji kama nyansi za kondeni.
17 His name endures forever. His name continues as long as the sun. Men shall be blessed by him. All nations will call him blessed.
Jina lake lidumu milele; jina lake ilindelee kama vile jua ling'aavyo; watu wabarikiwe katika yeye; mataifa yote wamwite mbarikiwa.
18 Praise be to Jehovah, the God of Israel, who alone does marvelous deeds.
Yahwe Mungu, Mungu wa Israel, atukuzwe, ambaye pekee hufanya mambo ya ajabu.
19 Blessed be his glorious name forever. Let the whole earth be filled with his glory. Amen and amen.
Jina lake tukufu litukuzawe milele, nayo nchi yote ijazwe na utukufu wake. Amina, Amina.
20 This ends the prayers by David, the son of Jesse.
