Zaburi 20

1 Kwa kiongozi wa muziki. Zaburi ya Daudi. Mungu akusaidie wakati wa shida; na jina la Mungu wa Yakobo likulinde

For the end, a Psalm of David. The Lord hear you in the day of trouble; the name of the God of Jacob defend you.

2 na kutuma msaada kutoka mahali patakatifu kwa ajili ya kukutegemeza wewe kutoka Sayuni.

Send you help from the sanctuary, and aid you out of Sion.

3 Naye akumbuke sadaka yako yote na kuipokea sadaka ya kuteketezwa.

Remember all your sacrifice, and enrich your whole burnt offering. (Pause)

4 Naye akujalie haja za moyo wako na kutimiza mipango yako yote.

Grant you according to your heart, and fulfill all your desire.

5 Ndipo tutakapo shangilia katika ushindi wako, na, katika jina la Mungu wetu, tutapeperusha bendera. Yahwe naakupe maombi yako yote ya haki.

We will exult in your salvation, and in the name of our God shall we be magnified: the Lord fulfil all your petitions.

6 Sasa ninajua ya kuwa Yahwe atawaokoa wapakwa mafuta wake; yeye atamjibu yeye kutoka katika mbingu takatifu kwa uweza wa mkono wake wa kuume ambao waweza kumuokoa yeye.

Now I know that the Lord has saved his Christ: he shall hear him from his holy heaven: the salvation of his right hand is mighty.

7 Baadhi hamini katika magari na wengine katika farasi, lakini sisi tumuita Yahwe Mungu wetu.

Some [glory] in chariots, and some in horses: but we will glory in the name of the Lord our God.

8 Wao watashushwa chini na kuanguka, bali sisi tutainuka na kusimama wima!

They are overthrown and fallen: but we are risen, and have been set upright.

9 Yahwe, umuokoe mfalme; utusaidie sisi tukuitapo.

O Lord, save the king: and hear us in whatever day we call upon you.
