< Zaburi 62 >
1 Kwa mwimbishaji. Mtindo wa Yeduthuni. Zaburi ya Daudi. Kwa Mungu peke yake nafsi yangu inapata pumziko; wokovu wangu watoka kwake.
To the excelletn musician Ieduthun. A Psalme of David. Yet my soule keepeth silence vnto God: of him commeth my saluation.
2 Yeye peke yake ndiye mwamba wangu na wokovu wangu; yeye ni ngome yangu, sitatikisika kamwe.
Yet he is my strength and my saluation, and my defence: therefore I shall not much be mooued.
3 Mtamshambulia mtu hata lini? Je, ninyi nyote mtamtupa chini, ukuta huu ulioinama na uzio huu unaotikisika?
How long wil ye imagine mischiefe against a man? ye shalbe all slaine: ye shalbe as a bowed wall, or as a wall shaken.
4 Walikusudia kikamilifu kumwangusha toka mahali pake pa fahari; wanafurahia uongo. Kwa vinywa vyao hubariki, lakini ndani ya mioyo yao hulaani.
Yet they consult to cast him downe from his dignitie: their delight is in lies, they blesse with their mouthes, but curse with their hearts. (Selah)
5 Ee nafsi yangu, upumzike, kwa Mungu peke yake, tumaini langu latoka kwake.
Yet my soule keepe thou silence vnto God: for mine hope is in him.
6 Yeye peke yake ndiye mwamba wangu na wokovu wangu; ndiye ngome yangu, sitatikisika.
Yet is hee my strength, and my saluation, and my defence: therefore I shall not be mooued.
7 Wokovu wangu na heshima yangu viko kwa Mungu, ndiye mwamba wangu wenye nguvu na kimbilio langu.
In God is my saluation and my glory, the rocke of my strength: in God is my trust.
8 Enyi watu, mtumainini yeye wakati wote, miminieni mioyo yenu kwake, kwa kuwa Mungu ni kimbilio letu.
Trust in him alway, ye people: powre out your hearts before him, for God is our hope. (Selah)
9 Binadamu wa ngazi ya chini ni pumzi tu, nao wa ngazi ya juu ni uongo tu; wakipimwa kwenye mizani, si chochote; wote kwa pamoja ni pumzi tu.
Yet the children of men are vanitie, the chiefe men are lies: to lay them vpon a balance they are altogether lighter then vanitie.
10 Usitumainie vya udhalimu wala usijivune kwa vitu vya wizi; ingawa utajiri wako utaongezeka, usiviwekee moyo wako.
Trust not in oppression nor in robberie: be not vaine: if riches increase, set not your heart thereon.
11 Jambo moja Mungu amelisema, mambo mawili nimeyasikia: kwamba, Ee Mungu, wewe una nguvu,
God spake once or twise, I haue heard it, that power belongeth vnto God,
12 na kwamba, Ee Bwana, wewe ni mwenye upendo. Hakika utampa kila mtu thawabu kwa kadiri ya alivyotenda.
And to thee, O Lord, mercie: for thou rewardest euery one according to his worke.
