Psalms 6

1 To the Chief Musician, with stringed Instruments upon the eighth. A Melody of David. O Yahweh! do not, in thine anger, correct me, nor, in thy wrath, chastise me.

Yahweh, usinikemee ukiwa na hasira au usiniadhibu katika gadhabu yako.

2 Show me favour, O Yahweh, for languishing am I: Heal me, O Yahweh, —for dismayed are my bones:

Unihurumie, Yahwe, kwa maana ni dhaifu; uniponye, Yahweh, kwa kuwa mifupa yangu ina tikisika.

3 Yea, my soul, is dismayed greatly, Thou, then, O Yahweh—how long?

Moyo wangu pia umesumbuka sana. Lakini wewe, Yahweh, mpaka lini hali hii itaendelea?

4 Return, O Yahweh, deliver my soul, Save me, for the sake of thy lovingkindness;

Rudi, Yahweh! uniokoe. Uniokoe kwa sababu ya uaminifu wa agano lako!

5 For, in death, is no remembrance of thee, —In hades, who shall give thanks unto thee? (Sheol h7585)

kwa kuwa kifoni hakuna kumbukumbu lako. Kuzimuni ni nani atakaye kushukuru? (Sheol h7585)

6 I am weary with my sighing, I flood, through the whole night, my couch, —With my tears, I cause, my bed, to dissolve:

Nimechoshwa na kuugua kwangu. Ninalowanisha kitanda changu kwa machozi usiku kucha; ninaosha kiti changu kwa machozi.

7 My face, is all sunken with sorrow, —it hath aged, because of all mine adversaries.

Macho yangu yanafifia kwa kulia sana; yanazidi kuwa dhaifu kwa sababu ya adaui zangu.

8 Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity, for Yahweh hath heard the voice of my weeping:

Ondokeni kwangu, nyote mtendao maovu; kwa kuwa Yahweh amesikia sauti ya kilio changu.

9 Yahweh, hath heard my supplication, Yahweh, will receive, my prayer.

Yahweh amesikia malalamiko yangu kwa ajili ya huruma; Yahweh ameyapokea maombi yangu.

10 Let all my foes, turn pale and be greatly dismayed, Again let them turn pale in a moment.

Maadui zangu wote wataaibishwa na kuteswa sana. Watarudi nyuma na ghafra kufedheheshwa.
