< Psalms 79 >
1 Of Asaph. God, hethene men cam in to thin eritage; thei defouliden thin hooli temple, thei settiden Jerusalem in to the keping of applis.
Zaburi ya Asafu. Mungu, Mataifa ya kigeni yameingia kwenye urithi wako; wamelinajisi hekalu lako takatifu; wameigeuza Yerusalemu kuwa chungu cha magofu.
2 Thei settiden the slayn bodies of thi seruauntis, meetis to the volatilis of heuenes; the fleischis of thi seyntis to the beestis of the erthe.
Wamezitoa maiti za watumishi wako ziwe chakula cha ndege wa angani, miili ya watakatifu wako iwe chakula cha wanyama wa nchi.
3 Thei schedden out the blood of hem, as watir in the cumpas of Jerusalem; and noon was that biriede.
Wamemwaga damu zao kama maji sehemu zote za Yesrusalemu, na hakuwepo wa kuwazika.
4 We ben maad schenschipe to oure neiyboris; mowynge and scornynge to hem, that ben in oure cumpas.
Sisi tumekuwa aibu kwa majirani zetu, tukidhihakiwa na kuzomewa na wale wanaotuzunguka.
5 Lord, hou longe schalt thou be wrooth in to the ende? schal thi veniaunce be kyndelid as fier?
Mpaka lini Yahwe? Utabaki kuwa na hasira milele? Ni kwa muda gani hasira yako ya wivu itawaka kama moto?
6 Schede out thin ire in to hethene men, that knowen not thee; and in to rewmes, that clepiden not thi name.
Mwaga hasira yako juu ya mataifa ambayo hayakujui wewe na ufalme ambao hauliiti jina lako.
7 For thei eeten Jacob; and maden desolat his place.
Kwa maana walimvamia Yakobo na waliharibu kijiji chake.
8 Haue thou not mynde on oure elde wickidnesses; thi mercies bifore take vs soone, for we ben maad pore greetli.
Usiendelee kukumbuka dhambi za baba zetu dhidi yetu; matendo yako ya huruma yaje kwetu, maana tuko chini.
9 God, oure heelthe, helpe thou vs, and, Lord, for the glorie of thi name delyuer thou vs; and be thou merciful to oure synnes for thi name.
Utusaidie, Mungu wa wokovu wetu, kwa ajili ya utukufu wa jina lako; utuokoe na usamehe dhambi zetu kwa ajili ya jina lako.
10 Lest perauenture thei seie among hethene men, Where is the God of hem? and be he knowun among naciouns bifore oure iyen. The veniaunce of the blood of thi seruauntis, which is sched out; the weilyng of feterid men entre in thi siyt.
Kwa nini mataifa yalazimike kusema, “Mungu wao yuko wapi?” Damu ya watumishi wako ambayo ilimwagwa na ilipize kisasi juu ya mataifa mbele ya macho yako.
11 Vpe the greetnesse of thin arm; welde thou the sones of slayn men.
Kilio cha wafungwa na kije mbele zako; kwa uweza wa nguvu zako uwaweke ai wana wa mauti.
12 And yelde thou to oure neiyboris seuenfoold in the bosum of hem; the schenschip of hem, which thei diden schenschipfuli to thee, thou Lord.
Uwalipize majirani zetu vifuani mwao mara saba zaidi ya walivyo kutukana wewe, Bwana.
13 But we that ben thi puple, and the scheep of thi leesewe; schulen knouleche to thee in to the world. In generacioun and in to generacioun; we schulen telle thin heriyng.
Hivyo sisi watu wako na kondoo wa malisho yako tutakushukuru milele. Tutazisimulia sifa zako kwa vizazi vyote.
