Psalms 30

1 “A psalm of David. To the air of songs for the dedication of a house.” I will extol thee, O LORD! for thou hast lifted me up, And hast not suffered my enemies to rejoice over me.

Utenzi wa kuweka wakfu hekalu. Zaburi ya Daudi. Nitakutukuza wewe, Ee Bwana, kwa kuwa umeniinua kutoka vilindi, na hukuacha adui zangu washangilie juu yangu.

2 O Jehovah, my God! I called upon thee, and thou hast healed me!

Ee Bwana, Mungu wangu, nilikuita unisaidie na wewe umeniponya.

3 O LORD! thou hast raised me up from the underworld; Thou hast kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit. (Sheol h7585)

Ee Bwana, umenitoa Kuzimu, umeniokoa nisishuke kwenye shimo la mauti. (Sheol h7585)

4 Sing unto the LORD, O ye his servants! And praise his holy name!

Mwimbieni Bwana, enyi watakatifu wake; lisifuni jina lake takatifu.

5 For his anger endureth but a moment, But his favor through life; In the evening sorrow may be a guest, But joy cometh in the morning.

Kwa maana hasira yake ni ya muda mfupi, bali upendo wake hudumu siku zote. Inawezekana kilio kiwepo usiku kucha, lakini asubuhi kukawa na furaha.

6 I said in my prosperity, “I shall never be moved!”

Nilipofanikiwa nilisema, “Sitatikiswa kamwe.”

7 Thou, O LORD! by thy favor, hast made my mountain to stand strong; Thou didst hide thy face, and I was troubled!

Ee Bwana, uliponijalia, uliuimarisha mlima wangu, lakini ulipouficha uso wako nilifadhaika.

8 I cried unto thee, O LORD! To the LORD I made supplication:

Kwako wewe, Ee Bwana, niliita, kwa Bwana niliomba rehema:

9 “What will my blood profit thee, that I should go down to the pit? Can dust praise thee? Can it declare thy faithfulness?

“Kuna faida gani katika kuangamia kwangu? Katika kushuka kwangu shimoni? Je, mavumbi yatakusifu? Je, yatatangaza uaminifu wako?

10 Hear, O LORD! and have pity upon me! Be thou, LORD! my helper!”

Ee Bwana, unisikie na kunihurumia, Ee Bwana, uwe msaada wangu.”

11 Thou didst turn my mourning into dancing; Thou didst loose my sackcloth, and gird me with gladness.

Uligeuza maombolezo yangu kuwa kucheza, ulinivua nguo za gunia ukanivika shangwe,

12 Therefore I will sing praise to thee, and not be silent. O Jehovah, my God! I will give thanks to thee for ever!

ili moyo wangu uweze kukusifu na usikae kimya. Ee Bwana Mungu wangu, nitakushukuru milele.
