Psalms 86

1 A Prayer of David. Bow down thy ear, O LORD, hear me: for I am poor and needy.

Sikia, Ee Yahwe, na unijibu, kwa kuwa ni maskini na mnyonge.

2 Preserve my soul; for I am holy: O thou my God, save thy servant that trusteth in thee.

Unilinde, maana mimi ni mwaminifu; Mungu wangu, umuokoe mtumishi wako anayekuamini.

3 Be merciful to me, O Lord: for I cry to thee daily.

Unihurumie, Bwana, maana ninakulilia wewe mchana kutwa.

4 Rejoice the soul of thy servant: for to thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.

Umfurahishe mtumishi wako, maana ni kwako, Bwana, ninaomba.

5 For thou, Lord, art good, and ready to forgive; and abundant in mercy to all them that call upon thee.

Wewe, Bwana, ni mwema, na uko tayari kusamehe, na huonesha huruma kubwa kwa wale wanao kulilia wewe.

6 Give ear, O LORD, to my prayer; and attend to the voice of my supplications.

Yahwe, sikiliza maombi yangu; sikia sauti ya ombi langu.

7 In the day of my trouble I will call upon thee: for thou wilt answer me.

Katika siku ya shida ninakuita wewe, kwa maana utanijibu.

8 Among the gods there is none like thee, O Lord; neither are there any works like thy works.

Katikati ya miungu hakuna wa kufananishwa na wewe, Bwana. Hakuna matendo kama matendo yako.

9 All nations whom thou hast made shall come and worship before thee, O Lord; and shall glorify thy name.

Mataifa yote ambayo umeyafanya yatakuja kwako na kusujudu mbele zako, Bwana. nao wataliheshimu jina lako.

10 For thou art great, and doest wondrous things: thou art God alone.

Kwa kuwa wewe ni mkuu na utendaye mambo ya ajabu; wewe pekee ndiwe Mungu.

11 Teach me thy way, O LORD; I will walk in thy truth: unite my heart to fear thy name.

Unifundishe njia zako, Yahwe. Kisha nitatembea katika kweli yako. Unifanye kukuheshimu wewe.

12 I will praise thee, O Lord my God, with all my heart: and I will glorify thy name for evermore.

Bwana Mungu wangu, nitakusifu kwa moyo wangu wote; nitalitukuza jina lako milele.

13 For great is thy mercy toward me: and thou hast delivered my soul from the lowest hell. (Sheol h7585)

Kwa maana uaminifu wa agano lako ni mkuu kwangu; wewe umeokoa uhai wangu kutoka chini kuzimuni. (Sheol h7585)

14 O God, the proud have risen against me, and the assemblies of violent men have sought after my soul; and have not set thee before them.

Ee Mungu, wenye kiburi wameinuka dhidi yangu. Kundi la watu wenye vurugu wanautafuta uhai wangu. Nao hawakuheshimu wewe.

15 But thou, O Lord, art a God full of compassion, and gracious, longsuffering, and abundant in mercy and truth.

Lakini wewe, Bwana, ni mwenye huruma na neema, hukasiliki haraka, na mwingi katika uaminifu wa agano lako na kweli.

16 O turn to me, and have mercy upon me; give thy strength to thy servant, and save the son of thy handmaid.

Unigeukie na unihurumie; mpe nguvu zako mtumishi wako; umuokoe mwana wa mjakazi wako.

17 Show me a sign for good; that they who hate me may see it, and be ashamed: because thou, LORD, hast helped me, and comforted me.

Unioneshe ishara ya fadhila zako. Kisha wale wanichukiao wataziona na kuaibishwa kwa sababu yako; Yahwe, umenisaidia na kunifariji.
