Psalms 61

1 [For the Chief Musician. For a stringed instrument. By David.] Hear my cry, God. Listen to my prayer.

Sikia kulia kwangu, shughulikia maombi yangu.

2 From the most remote place of the earth, I will call to you, when my heart is overwhelmed. Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

Kutokea mwisho wa nchi nitakuita wewe wakati moyo wangu umeelemewa; uniongoze kwenye mwamba ulio juu kuliko mimi.

3 For you have been a refuge for me, a strong tower from the enemy.

Maana wewe umekuwa kimbilio langu la usalama, nguzo imara dhidi ya adui.

4 I will dwell in your tent forever. I will take refuge in the shelter of your wings. (Selah)

Uniache niishi hemani mwako milele! Nipate kimbilio salama chini ya makazi ya mbawa zako. (Selah)

5 For you, God, have heard my vows. You have given me the heritage of those who fear your name.

Kwa kuwa wewe, Mungu, umesikia viapo vyangu, wewe umenipa mimi urithi wa wale wanao liheshimu jina lako.

6 You will prolong the king's life; his years shall be for generations.

Wewe utaongeza maisha ya mfalme; miaka yake itakuwa kama vizazi vingi.

7 He shall be enthroned in God's presence forever. Appoint your loving kindness and truth, that they may preserve him.

Yeye atabakia mbele ya Mungu milele.

8 So I will sing praise to your name forever, that I may fulfill my vows day after day.

Nitaliimbia sifa jina lako milele ili kwamba niweze kufanya viapo vyangu kila siku.
