Zaburi 83
1 Wimbo. Zaburi ya Asafu. Ee Mungu, usinyamaze kimya, usinyamaze, Ee Mungu, usitulie.
A song, a psalm of Asaph. Do not keep silent, O God: hold not your peace, be not still, God.
2 Tazama watesi wako wanafanya fujo, jinsi adui zako wanavyoinua vichwa vyao.
For see! Your enemies roar, those who hate you lift up their heads,
3 Kwa hila, wanafanya shauri dhidi ya watu wako, wanafanya shauri baya dhidi ya wale unaowapenda.
laying crafty plans for your people, and plotting against those you treasure.
4 Wanasema, “Njooni, tuwaangamize kama taifa, ili jina la Israeli lisikumbukwe tena.”
“Come, let us wipe them out as a nation, so Israel’s name will be mentioned no more.”
5 Kwa nia moja wanapanga mashauri mabaya pamoja, wanafanya muungano dhidi yako,
For, conspiring with one accord, they have made a league against you
6 mahema ya Edomu na Waishmaeli, ya Wamoabu na Wahagari,
Tents of Edom, and Ishmaelites, Moab, and the Hagrites.
7 Gebali, Amoni na Amaleki, Ufilisti, pamoja na watu wa Tiro.
Gebal and Ammon and Amalek, Philistia, with the people of Tyre;
8 Hata Ashuru wameungana nao kuwapa nguvu wazao wa Loti.
Syria, too, is confederate, they have strengthened the children of Lot. (Selah)
9 Uwatendee kama vile ulivyowatendea Midiani, na kama vile ulivyowatendea Sisera na Yabini hapo kijito cha Kishoni,
Deal with them as you dealt with Midian, with Sisera, with Jabin, at the torrent of Kishon,
10 ambao waliangamia huko Endori na wakawa kama takataka juu ya nchi.
who at Endor were destroyed, and became dung for the field.
11 Wafanye wakuu wao kama Orebu na Zeebu, watawala wao kama Zeba na Salmuna,
Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb, all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna,
12 ambao walisema, “Na tumiliki nchi ya malisho ya Mungu.”
who said, “Let us take for ourselves the meadows of God.”
13 Ee Mungu wangu, wapeperushe kama mavumbi ya kisulisuli, kama makapi yapeperushwayo na upepo.
Whirl them, my God, like dust, like stubble before the wind.
14 Kama vile moto uteketezavyo msitu au mwali wa moto unavyounguza milima,
As the fire that kindles the forest, as flame that sets mountains ablaze,
15 wafuatilie kwa tufani yako na kuwafadhaisha kwa dhoruba yako.
so with your tempest pursue them, terrify them with your hurricane.
16 Funika nyuso zao kwa aibu ili watu walitafute jina lako, Ee Bwana.
Make them blush with shame; until they seek your name, O Lord.
17 Wao na waaibishwe na kufadhaishwa milele, na waangamie kwa aibu.
Everlasting shame and confusion, disgrace and destruction be theirs.
18 Hebu wajue kwamba wewe, ambaye jina lako ni Bwana, kwamba wewe peke yako ndiwe Uliye Juu Sana ya dunia yote.
Teach those who you alone are most high over all the earth.
