Zaburi 28
1 Zaburi ya Daudi. Ninakuita wewe, Ee Bwana, Mwamba wangu; usiwe kwangu kama kiziwi. Kwa sababu ukinyamaza nitafanana na walioshuka shimoni.
Of David to you O Yahweh - I call out O rock my may not you be deaf from me lest you should be silent from me and I will be equal with [those who] go down [the] pit.
2 Sikia kilio changu unihurumie ninapokuita kwa ajili ya msaada, niinuapo mikono yangu kuelekea Patakatifu pa Patakatifu pako.
Hear [the] sound of supplications my when cry for help I to you when lift up I hands my to [the] innermost room of holiness your.
3 Usiniburute pamoja na waovu, pamoja na hao watendao mabaya, ambao huzungumza na jirani zao maneno mazuri, lakini mioyoni mwao wameficha chuki.
May not you drag away me with wicked [people] and with [those who] do wickedness [who] speak peace with neighbors their and evil [is] in heart their.
4 Walipe sawasawa na matendo yao, sawasawa na matendo yao maovu; walipe sawasawa na kazi za mikono yao, uwalipe wanavyostahili.
Requite to them according to work their and according to [the] wickedness of deeds their according to [the] work of hands their requite to them repay recompense their to them.
5 Kwa kuwa hawaheshimu kazi za Bwana, na yale ambayo mikono yake imetenda, atawabomoa na kamwe hatawajenga tena.
For not they consider [the] deeds of Yahweh and to [the] work of hands his he will tear down them and not he will rebuild them.
6 Bwana asifiwe, kwa maana amesikia kilio changu nikimwomba anihurumie.
[be] blessed Yahweh for he has heard [the] sound of supplications my.
7 Bwana ni nguvu zangu na ngao yangu, moyo wangu umemtumaini yeye, nami nimesaidiwa. Moyo wangu unarukaruka kwa furaha nami nitamshukuru kwa wimbo.
Yahweh - [is] strength my and shield my in him it has trusted heart my and I was helped and it exulted heart my and from song my I will give thanks to him.
8 Bwana ni nguvu ya watu wake, ngome ya wokovu kwa mpakwa mafuta wake.
Yahweh [is] strength of them and [is] [the] refuge of [the] salvation of anointed his he.
9 Waokoe watu wako na uubariki urithi wako; uwe mchungaji wao na uwabebe milele.
Save! - people your and bless inheritance your and shepherd them and carry them until perpetuity.
