Zaburi 3
1 Yahewh, maadui zangu wako wangapi! Ni wengi wamekuja kinyume na mimi.
[A Psalm by David, when he fled from Absalom his son.] LORD, how my adversaries have increased. Many rise up against me.
2 Ni wengi wanaonisema, “Hakuna msaada wowote kutoka kwa Mungu kwa ajili yake.” (Selah)
Many there are who say of my soul, "There is no salvation for him in God." (Selah)
3 Bali wewe, Yahweh, u ngao yangu pande zote, utukufu wangu, na uniinuaye kichwa changu.
But you, LORD, are a shield around me, my glory, and the one who lifts up my head.
4 Nampazia Yahweh sauti yangu, na yeye ananijibu kutoka katika mlima wake mtakatifu.
I cried out to the LORD with my voice, and he answered me from his holy mountain. (Selah)
5 Nilijilaza chini na kusinzia; na niliamka, kwa kuwa Yahweh alinilinda.
I lay down and slept. I awoke, for the LORD sustains me.
6 Sitaogopa kusanyiko la watu ambao wamejipanga kinyume na mimi pande zote.
I am not afraid of ten thousands of people who have set themselves against me on every side.
7 Inuka, Yahweh! Uniokoe, Mungu wangu! Kwa kuwa utawapiga maadui zangu wote kwenye taya zao; utayavunja meno ya waovu.
Arise, LORD. Save me, my God. For you slap all my enemies in the face. You break the teeth of the wicked.
8 Wokovu unatoka kwa Yahweh. Baraka zako ziwe juu ya watu wako.
Salvation belongs to the LORD. Your blessing is upon your people. (Selah)
