< 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 are those who 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 help 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 cry to the LORD with my voice, and he answers me out of his holy hill. (Selah)
5 Nilijilaza chini na kusinzia; na niliamka, kwa kuwa Yahweh alinilinda.
I laid myself down and slept. I awakened, for the LORD sustains me.
6 Sitaogopa kusanyiko la watu ambao wamejipanga kinyume na mimi pande zote.
I will not be afraid of tens of 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 have struck all of my enemies on the cheek bone. You have broken the teeth of the wicked.
8 Wokovu unatoka kwa Yahweh. Baraka zako ziwe juu ya watu wako.
Salvation belongs to the LORD. May your blessing be on your people. (Selah)
