Psalms 20

1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. The LORD hear thee in the day of trouble; the name of the God of Jacob defend thee.

Kwa kiongozi wa muziki. Zaburi ya Daudi. Mungu akusaidie wakati wa shida; na jina la Mungu wa Yakobo likulinde

2 Send thee help from the sanctuary, and strengthen thee out of Zion.

na kutuma msaada kutoka mahali patakatifu kwa ajili ya kukutegemeza wewe kutoka Sayuni.

3 Remember all thy offerings, and accept thy burnt-sacrifice. (Selah)

Naye akumbuke sadaka yako yote na kuipokea sadaka ya kuteketezwa.

4 Grant thee according to thy own heart, and fulfill all thy counsel.

Naye akujalie haja za moyo wako na kutimiza mipango yako yote.

5 We will rejoice in thy salvation, and in the name of our God we will set up [our] banners: the LORD fulfill all thy petitions.

Ndipo tutakapo shangilia katika ushindi wako, na, katika jina la Mungu wetu, tutapeperusha bendera. Yahwe naakupe maombi yako yote ya haki.

6 Now I know that the LORD saveth his anointed; he will hear him from his holy heaven with the saving strength of his right hand.

Sasa ninajua ya kuwa Yahwe atawaokoa wapakwa mafuta wake; yeye atamjibu yeye kutoka katika mbingu takatifu kwa uweza wa mkono wake wa kuume ambao waweza kumuokoa yeye.

7 Some [trust] in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the name of the LORD our God.

Baadhi hamini katika magari na wengine katika farasi, lakini sisi tumuita Yahwe Mungu wetu.

8 They are brought down and fallen: but we are raised, and stand upright.

Wao watashushwa chini na kuanguka, bali sisi tutainuka na kusimama wima!

9 Save, LORD: let the king hear us when we call.

Yahwe, umuokoe mfalme; utusaidie sisi tukuitapo.
