< Zaburi 54 >

1 Uniokoe, Mungu, kwa jina lako, na kwa nguvu zako unihukumu.
For the chief musician; on stringed instruments. A maschil of David; when the Ziphites came and said to Saul, “Does David not hide himself with us?” Save me, God, by your name, and judge me in your might.
2 Usikie maombi yangu, Mungu; uyategee sikio maneno ya mdomo wangu.
Hear my prayer, God; give ear to the words of my mouth.
3 Kwa maana wageni wameinuka dhidi yangu, na watu wasio na huruma wanaitafuta roho yangu; nao hawakumuweka Mungu mbele yao. (Selah)
For strangers have risen up against me, and pitiless men have sought after my life; they have not set God before them. (Selah)
4 Tazama, Mungu ni msaidizi wangu; Bwana ndiye anisaidiaye.
See, God is my helper; the Lord is the one who upholds me.
5 Naye atawalipizia uovu maadui zangu; katika uaminifu wako, uwaharibu!
He will repay my enemies with evil; in your faithfulness, destroy them!
6 Nitakutolea dhabihu kwa moyo mkunjufu; nitalishukuru jina lako, Yahwe, kwa maana ni jema.
I will sacrifice to you with a freewill offering; I will give thanks to your name, Yahweh, for it is good.
7 Kwa kuwa yeye ameniokoa katika kila shida; macho yangu yamewatazama adui zangu yakiwa na ushindi.
For he has rescued me from every trouble; my eye has looked in triumph on my enemies.
