Zaburi 27
1 Zaburi ya Daudi. Bwana ni nuru yangu na wokovu wangu, nimwogope nani? Bwana ni ngome ya uzima wangu, nimhofu nani?
Of David - Yahweh - [is] light my and salvation my from whom? will I be afraid Yahweh [is] [the] refuge of life my from whom? will I be in dread.
2 Waovu watakaposogea dhidi yangu ili wanile nyama yangu, adui zangu na watesi wangu watakaponishambulia, watajikwaa na kuanguka.
When drew near on me - evil-doers to devour flesh my opponents my and enemies my to me they they stumbled and they fell.
3 Hata jeshi linizunguke pande zote, moyo wangu hautaogopa; hata vita vitokee dhidi yangu, hata hapo nitakuwa na ujasiri.
Though it will encamp on me - a camp not it will fear heart my though it will arise on me warfare in this I [will be] trusting.
4 Jambo moja ninamwomba Bwana, hili ndilo ninalolitafuta: niweze kukaa nyumbani mwa Bwana siku zote za maisha yangu, niutazame uzuri wa Bwana na kumtafuta hekaluni mwake.
One [thing] - I have asked from with Yahweh it I will seek to dwell I in [the] house of Yahweh all [the] days of life my to look on [the] kindness of Yahweh and to inquire in temple his.
5 Kwa kuwa siku ya shida, atanihifadhi salama katika maskani yake, atanificha uvulini mwa hema yake na kuniweka juu kwenye mwamba.
For he will conceal me - in refuge his in a day of trouble he will hide me in [the] hiding place of tent his on a rock he will raise up me.
6 Kisha kichwa changu kitainuliwa juu ya adui zangu wanaonizunguka. Katika maskani yake nitatoa dhabihu kwa kelele za shangwe; nitamwimbia Bwana na kumsifu.
And now it will rise head my above enemies my around me and I will sacrifice in tent his sacrifices of a shout of joy I will sing and I will sing praises to Yahweh.
7 Isikie sauti yangu nikuitapo, Ee Bwana, unihurumie na unijibu.
Hear O Yahweh voice my I call out and show favor to me and answer me.
8 Moyo wangu unasema kuhusu wewe, “Utafute uso wake!” Uso wako, Bwana “Nitautafuta.”
Of you - it has said heart my seek face my face your O Yahweh I will seek.
9 Usinifiche uso wako, usimkatae mtumishi wako kwa hasira; wewe umekuwa msaada wangu. Usinikatae wala usiniache, Ee Mungu Mwokozi wangu.
May not you hide face your - from me may not you turn aside in anger servant your help my you have been may not you abandon me and may not you forsake me O God of salvation my.
10 Hata kama baba yangu na mama wakiniacha, Bwana atanipokea.
For father my and mother my they have forsaken me and Yahweh he will receive me.
11 Nifundishe njia yako, Ee Bwana, niongoze katika njia iliyonyooka kwa sababu ya watesi wangu.
Teach me O Yahweh way your and lead me in a path of level ground on account of enemies my.
12 Usiniachilie kwa nia za adui zangu, kwa maana mashahidi wa uongo wameinuka dhidi yangu, wakipumua ujeuri.
May not you give me in [the] desire of opponents my for they have arisen on me witnesses of falsehood and a witness of violence.
13 Nami bado nina tumaini hili: nitauona wema wa Bwana katika nchi ya walio hai.
If not I had believed to look on [the] goodness of Yahweh in [the] land of living [people].
14 Mngojee Bwana, uwe hodari na mwenye moyo mkuu, nawe, umngojee Bwana.
Wait to Yahweh be strong so may it show strength heart your and wait to Yahweh.
