Zaburi 20

1 Kwa mwimbishaji. Zaburi ya Daudi. Bwana na akujibu unapokuwa katika dhiki, jina la Mungu wa Yakobo na liwe kinga yako.

YHWH hear thee in the day of trouble; the name of the Elohim of Jacob defend thee;

2 Na akutumie msaada kutoka patakatifu na akupatie msaada kutoka Sayuni.

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

3 Na azikumbuke dhabihu zako zote, na azikubali sadaka zako za kuteketezwa.

Remember all thy offerings, and accept thy burnt sacrifice; (Selah)

4 Na akujalie haja ya moyo wako, na aifanikishe mipango yako yote.

Grant thee according to thine own heart, and fulfil all thy counsel.

5 Tutashangilia kwa furaha utakaposhinda, tutainua bendera zetu kwa jina la Mungu wetu. Bwana na akupe haja zako zote.

We will rejoice in thy salvation, and in the name of our Elohim we will set up our banners: YHWH fulfil all thy petitions.

6 Sasa nafahamu kuwa Bwana humwokoa mpakwa mafuta wake, humjibu kutoka mbingu yake takatifu kwa nguvu za wokovu wa mkono wake wa kuume.

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

7 Wengine wanatumaini magari ya vita, na wengine farasi, bali sisi tutalitumainia jina la Bwana, Mungu wetu.

Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the name of YHWH our Elohim.

8 Wao wameshushwa chini na kuanguka, bali sisi tunainuka na kusimama imara.

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

9 Ee Bwana, mwokoe mfalme! Tujibu tunapokuita!

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