Zaburi 6
1 Kwa mwimbishaji. Kwa ala za nyuzi za muziki. Mtindo wa sheminithi. Zaburi ya Daudi. Ee Bwana, usinikemee katika hasira yako, wala usiniadhibu katika ghadhabu yako.
O Jehovah, rebuke me not in thine anger, nor chasten me in thy hot displeasure.
2 Unirehemu Bwana, kwa maana nimedhoofika; Ee Bwana, uniponye, kwa maana mifupa yangu ina maumivu makali.
Have mercy upon me, O Jehovah, for I am withered away. O Jehovah, heal me, for my bones are troubled.
3 Nafsi yangu ina uchungu mwingi. Mpaka lini, Ee Bwana, mpaka lini?
My soul also is greatly troubled. And thou, O Jehovah, how long?
4 Geuka Ee Bwana, unikomboe, uniokoe kwa sababu ya fadhili zako.
Return, O Jehovah, deliver my soul. Save me for thy loving kindness' sake.
For in death there is no remembrance of thee. In Sheol who shall give thee thanks? (Sheol h7585)
6 Nimechakaa kwa kulia kwa huzuni; usiku kucha nafurikisha kitanda changu kwa machozi; nimelowesha viti vyangu vya fahari kwa machozi.
I am weary with my groaning. Every night I make my bed to swim. I water my couch with my tears.
7 Macho yangu yamedhoofika kwa kuhuzunika, yamedhoofika kwa sababu ya adui zangu wote.
My eye wastes away because of grief. It grows old because of all my adversaries.
8 Kaeni mbali nami, ninyi nyote mtendao mabaya, kwa maana Bwana amesikia kulia kwangu.
Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity, for Jehovah has heard the voice of my weeping.
9 Bwana amesikia kilio changu kwa huruma, Bwana amekubali sala yangu.
Jehovah has heard my supplication. Jehovah will receive my prayer.
10 Adui zangu wote wataaibika na kufadhaika, watarudi nyuma kwa aibu ya ghafula.
All my enemies shall be put to shame and greatly troubled. They shall turn back. They shall be put to shame suddenly.
