Psalms 41

1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. Blessed [is] he that considereth the poor: the LORD will deliver him in the time of trouble.

Kwa mwimbishaji. Zaburi ya Daudi. Heri mtu yule anayemjali mnyonge, Bwana atamwokoa wakati wa shida.

2 The LORD will preserve him, and keep him alive; [and] he shall be blessed upon the earth: and thou wilt not deliver him to the will of his enemies.

Bwana atamlinda na kuyahifadhi maisha yake, atambariki katika nchi na hatamwacha katika tamaa ya adui zake.

3 The LORD will strengthen him upon the bed of languishing: thou wilt make all his bed in his sickness.

Bwana atamtegemeza awapo mgonjwa kitandani, atamwinua kutoka kitandani mwake.

4 I said, LORD, be merciful to me: heal my soul; for I have sinned against thee.

Nilisema, “Ee Bwana nihurumie, niponye, maana nimekutenda dhambi wewe.”

5 My enemies speak evil of me, When shall he die, and his name perish?

Adui zangu wanasema kwa hila, “Lini atakufa, na jina lake litokomee kabisa.”

6 And if he cometh to see [me], he speaketh vanity: his heart gathereth iniquity to itself; [when] he goeth abroad, he telleth [it].

Kila anapokuja mtu kunitazama, huzungumza uongo, huku moyo wake hukusanya masingizio; kisha huondoka na kuyasambaza huku na huko.

7 All that hate me whisper together against me: against me do they devise my hurt.

Adui zangu wote hunongʼonezana dhidi yangu, hao huniwazia mabaya sana, wakisema,

8 An evil disease, [say they], cleaveth fast to him: and [now] that he lieth he shall rise no more.

“Ugonjwa mbaya sana umempata, kamwe hatainuka tena kitandani mwake.”

9 Yes, my own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, who ate of my bread, hath lifted up [his] heel against me.

Hata rafiki yangu wa karibu niliyemwamini, yule aliyekula chakula changu ameniinulia kisigino chake.

10 But thou, O LORD, be merciful to me, and raise me up, that I may requite them.

Lakini wewe, Ee Bwana, nihurumie, ukaniinue tena, ili niweze kuwalipiza kisasi.

11 By this I know that thou favorest me, because my enemy doth not triumph over me.

Najua kwamba wapendezwa nami, kwa kuwa adui yangu hanishindi.

12 And as for me, thou upholdest me in my integrity, and settest me before thy face for ever.

Katika uadilifu wangu unanitegemeza na kuniweka kwenye uwepo wako milele.

13 Blessed [be] the LORD God of Israel from everlasting, and to everlasting. Amen, and amen.

Msifuni Bwana, Mungu wa Israeli, tangu milele na hata milele.
