Psalms 86

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

Maombi ya Daudi. Ee Bwana, sikia na unijibu, kwa maana mimi ni maskini na mhitaji.

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

Linda maisha yangu, kwa maana nimejiweka kwako, wewe ni Mungu wangu, mwokoe mtumishi wako anayekutumaini.

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

Ee Bwana, nihurumie mimi, kwa maana ninakuita mchana kutwa.

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

Mpe mtumishi wako furaha, kwa kuwa kwako wewe, Ee Bwana, ninainua nafsi yangu.

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

Ee Bwana, wewe ni mwema na mwenye kusamehe, umejaa upendo kwa wote wakuitao.

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

Ee Bwana, sikia maombi yangu, sikiliza kilio changu unihurumie.

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

Katika siku ya shida yangu nitakuita, kwa maana wewe utanijibu.

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

Ee Bwana, katikati ya miungu hakuna kama wewe, hakuna matendo ya kulinganishwa na yako.

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

Ee Bwana, mataifa yote uliyoyafanya yatakuja na kuabudu mbele zako; wataliletea utukufu jina lako.

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

Kwa maana wewe ni mkuu, na unafanya mambo ya ajabu; wewe peke yako ndiwe Mungu.

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

Ee Bwana, nifundishe njia yako, nami nitakwenda katika kweli yako; nipe moyo usiositasita, ili niweze kulicha jina lako.

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

Ee Bwana wangu, nitakusifu kwa moyo wote; nitaliadhimisha jina lako milele.

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

Kwa maana upendo wako ni mkuu kwangu; umeniokoa kutoka kwenye vilindi vya kaburi. (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 majivuno wananishambulia; kundi la watu wakatili linatafuta uhai wangu: watu wasiokuheshimu wewe.

15 But thou, O LORD, [art] a God full of compassion, and gracious; long-suffering, and abundant in mercy and truth.

Lakini wewe, Ee Bwana, ni Mungu wa huruma na neema, si mwepesi wa hasira, bali ni mwingi wa upendo na uaminifu.

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

Nigeukie na unihurumie; mpe mtumishi wako nguvu zako, mwokoe mwana wa mtumishi wako wa kike.

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

Nipe ishara ya wema wako, ili adui zangu waione nao waaibishwe, kwa kuwa wewe, Ee Bwana, umenisaidia na kunifariji.
