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.
Yahweh, do not punish me when you are angry [with me]; Do not even rebuke/scold me [when you are angry].
2 Unirehemu Bwana, kwa maana nimedhoofika; Ee Bwana, uniponye, kwa maana mifupa yangu ina maumivu makali.
Yahweh, be kind to me and heal me because I have become weak. My body [SYN] shakes because I am experiencing much pain.
3 Nafsi yangu ina uchungu mwingi. Mpaka lini, Ee Bwana, mpaka lini?
Yahweh, I am greatly distressed. How long ([must I endure this/will it be before you help me]) [RHQ]?
4 Geuka Ee Bwana, unikomboe, uniokoe kwa sababu ya fadhili zako.
Yahweh, please come and rescue me. Save me because you faithfully love me.
I will not be able to praise you after I die [RHQ]; No one in the place of the dead praises you. (Sheol h7585)
6 Nimechakaa kwa kulia kwa huzuni; usiku kucha nafurikisha kitanda changu kwa machozi; nimelowesha viti vyangu vya fahari kwa machozi.
I am exhausted/groan [from my pain]. At night I cry very much, with the result that my bed and my pillow become wet from my tears.
7 Macho yangu yamedhoofika kwa kuhuzunika, yamedhoofika kwa sababu ya adui zangu wote.
My tears blur my eyes so much that I cannot see well. My eyes have become weak because my enemies [have caused me to cry constantly].
8 Kaeni mbali nami, ninyi nyote mtendao mabaya, kwa maana Bwana amesikia kulia kwangu.
You people who do evil things, get away from me!
9 Bwana amesikia kilio changu kwa huruma, Bwana amekubali sala yangu.
Yahweh heard me when I was crying and called out to him [to help me], and he will answer my prayer.
10 Adui zangu wote wataaibika na kufadhaika, watarudi nyuma kwa aibu ya ghafula.
[When that happens], all my enemies will be ashamed, and they will [also] be terrified. They will get away [from me] and suddenly [leave me] because they will be disgraced.
