Psalms 132
1 A song of ascents. Yahweh, for David's sake call to mind all his afflictions.
Wimbo wa kwenda juu. Ee Bwana, mkumbuke Daudi na taabu zote alizozistahimili.
2 Call to mind how he swore to Yahweh, how he vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob.
Aliapa kiapo kwa Bwana na akaweka nadhiri kwa Yule Mwenye Nguvu wa Yakobo:
3 He said, “I will not enter my house or get into my bed,
“Sitaingia nyumbani mwangu au kwenda kitandani mwangu:
4 I will not give sleep to my eyes or rest to my eyelids
sitaruhusu usingizi katika macho yangu, wala kope zangu kusinzia,
5 until I find a place for Yahweh, a tabernacle for the Mighty One of Jacob.”
mpaka nitakapompatia Bwana mahali, makao kwa ajili ya Yule Mwenye Nguvu wa Yakobo.”
6 See, we heard about it in Ephrathah; we found it in the fields of Jaar.
Tulisikia habari hii huko Efrathi, tulikutana nayo katika mashamba ya Yaara:
7 We will go into God's tabernacle; we will worship at his footstool.
“Twendeni kwenye makao yake, na tuabudu kwenye kiti cha kuwekea miguu yake;
8 Arise, Yahweh, to your resting place, you and the ark of your strength!
inuka, Ee Bwana, uje mahali pako pa kupumzikia, wewe na Sanduku la nguvu zako.
9 May your priests be clothed with integrity; may your faithful ones shout for joy.
Makuhani wako na wavikwe haki, watakatifu wako na waimbe kwa furaha.”
10 For your servant David's sake, do not turn away from your anointed king.
Kwa ajili ya Daudi mtumishi wako, usimkatae mpakwa mafuta wako.
11 Yahweh swore a sure oath to David, a sure oath that he will not revoke: “I will place one of your descendants on your throne.
Bwana alimwapia Daudi kiapo, kiapo cha uhakika ambacho hatakitangua: “Nitamweka mmoja wa wazao wako mwenyewe katika kiti chako cha enzi,
12 If your sons keep my covenant and the laws that I will teach them, their children also will sit on your throne forevermore.”
kama wanao watashika Agano langu na sheria ninazowafundisha, ndipo wana wao watarithi kiti chako cha enzi milele na milele.”
13 Certainly Yahweh has chosen Zion, he has desired her for his seat.
Kwa maana Bwana ameichagua Sayuni, amepaonea shauku pawe maskani yake:
14 “This is my resting place forever. I will live here, for I desire her.
“Hapa ni mahali pangu pa kupumzika milele na milele; hapa ndipo nitakapoketi nikitawala, kwa sababu nimepaonea shauku:
15 I will abundantly bless her with provisions. I will satisfy her poor with bread.
Nitambariki kwa kumpa mahitaji tele: nitashibisha maskini wake kwa chakula.
16 I will clothe her priests with salvation, her faithful ones will shout aloud for joy.
Nitawavika makuhani wake wokovu, nao watakatifu wake watadumu wakiimba kwa furaha.
17 There I will make a horn to sprout for David and set up a lamp for my anointed one.
“Hapa nitamchipushia Daudi pembe, na kuweka taa kwa ajili ya masiya wangu.
18 I will clothe his enemies with shame, but on him his crown will shine.”
Adui zake nitawavika aibu, bali taji kichwani pake itangʼaa sana.”
