Zaburi 59
1 Kwa mwimbishaji. Mtindo wa “Usiharibu!” Utenzi wa Daudi. Wakati Sauli alipotuma wapelelezi nyumbani mwa Daudi ili wamuue. Ee Mungu, uniokoe na adui zangu, unilinde kutokana na hao wanaoinuka dhidi yangu.
`In Jeroms translacioun thus, To the ouercomer, that thou lese not Dauid, meke and simple, `whanne Saul sente and kepte the hous, to slee hym. `In Ebreu thus, To the ouercomyng, leese thou not the semeli song of Dauid, and so forth. Mi God, delyuer thou me fro myn enemyes; and delyuer thou me fro hem that risen ayens me.
2 Uniponye na watu watendao mabaya, uniokoe kutokana na wamwagao damu.
Delyuer thou me fro hem that worchen wickidnesse; and saue thou me fro menquelleris.
3 Tazama wanavyonivizia! Watu wakali wananifanyia hila, ingawa Ee Bwana, mimi sijakosea wala kutenda dhambi.
For lo! thei han take my soule; stronge men fellen in on me.
4 Sijatenda kosa; hata hivyo wako tayari kunishambulia. Inuka unisaidie, uone hali yangu mbaya!
Nethir my wickidnesse, nether my synne; Lord, Y ran with out wickidnesse, and dresside `my werkis.
5 Ee Bwana Mwenye Nguvu Zote, Mungu wa Israeli! Zinduka uyaadhibu mataifa yote, usionyeshe huruma kwa wasaliti.
Rise vp thou in to my meetyng, and se; and thou, Lord God of vertues, art God of Israel. Yyue thou tent to visite alle folkis; do thou not merci to alle that worchen wickidnesse.
6 Hurudi wakati wa jioni, wakibweka kama mbwa, wakiuzurura mji.
Thei schulen be turned at euentid, and thei as doggis schulen suffre hungir; and thei schulen cumpas the citee.
7 Tazama yale wanayotema kutoka vinywa vyao, hutema upanga kutoka midomo yao, nao husema, “Ni nani atakayetusikia?”
Lo! thei schulen speke in her mouth, and a swerd in her lippis; for who herde?
8 Lakini wewe, Bwana, uwacheke; unayadharau mataifa hayo yote.
And thou, Lord, schalt scorne hem; thou schalt bringe alle folkis to nouyt.
9 Ee nguvu yangu, ninakutazama wewe, wewe, Ee Mungu, ndiwe ngome yangu,
I schal kepe my strengthe to thee;
10 Mungu wangu unipendaye. Mungu atanitangulia, naye atanifanya niwachekelee wale wanaonisingizia.
for God is myn vptaker, my God, his mercy schal come byfore me.
11 Lakini usiwaue, Ee Bwana, ngao yetu, au sivyo watu wangu watasahau. Katika uwezo wako wafanye watangetange na uwashushe chini.
God schewide to me on myn enemyes, slee thou not hem; lest ony tyme my puples foryete. Scatere thou hem in thi vertu; and, Lord, my defender, putte thou hem doun.
12 Kwa ajili ya dhambi za vinywa vyao, kwa ajili ya maneno ya midomo yao, waache wanaswe katika kiburi chao. Kwa ajili ya laana na uongo wanaotamka,
Putte thou doun the trespas of her mouth, and the word of her lippis; and be thei takun in her pride. And of cursyng and of leesyng; thei schulen be schewid in the endyng.
13 wateketeze katika ghadhabu, wateketeze hadi wasiwepo tena. Ndipo itakapofahamika katika miisho ya dunia kwamba Mungu anatawala juu ya Yakobo.
In the ire of ending, and thei schulen not be; and thei schulen wite, that the Lord schal be Lord of Jacob, and of the endis of erthe.
14 Hurudi jioni, wakibweka kama mbwa, wakiuzurura mji.
Thei schulen be turned at euentid, and thei as doggis schulen suffre hungur; and thei schulen cumpas the citee.
15 Wanatangatanga wakitafuta chakula, wasipotosheka hubweka kama mbwa.
Thei schulen be scaterid abrood, for to eete; sotheli if thei ben not fillid, and thei schulen grutche.
16 Lakini mimi nitaziimba nguvu zako, asubuhi nitaimba juu ya upendo wako; kwa maana wewe ndiwe ngome yangu na kimbilio langu wakati wa shida.
But Y schal synge thi strengthe; and eerli Y schal enhaunse thi merci. For thou art maad myn vptaker; and my refuyt, in the dai of my tribulacioun.
17 Ee uliye Nguvu zangu, ninakuimbia sifa. Wewe, Ee Mungu, ndiwe ngome yangu, Mungu unipendaye.
Myn helper, Y schal synge to thee; for thou art God, myn vptaker, my God, my mercy.
