Psalms 61

1 To the Chief Musician. Upon a Stringed Instrument. David’s. Hear, O God, my loud cry, Attend unto my prayer:

Sikia kulia kwangu, shughulikia maombi yangu.

2 From the end of the earth, unto thee do I cry, When my heart fainteth away, Unto a rock that is higher than I, wilt thou lead me.

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

3 For thou hast been, A Refuge to me, A Tower of Strength, from the face of the foe.

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

4 I would be a guest in thy tent to the ages, I would seek refuge in the concealment of thy wings. (Selah)

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

5 For, thou, O God, hast hearkened to my vows, Thou hast granted a possession, unto them who revere thy Name.

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

6 Days—unto the days of the king, wilt thou add. His years, as of generation after generation:

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

7 Let him retain his seat age-abidingly before God, Appoint that, lovingkindness and faithfulness, my watch over him!

Yeye atabakia mbele ya Mungu milele.

8 So, will I sing thy Name unto futurity, Paying my vows, day by day.

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