< Zaburi 60 >

1 Mungu, wewe umetutupa; umeuvunja ulinzi wetu; wewe umekuwa hasirani; utuwezeshe tena.
O God, you have cast us off, you have scattered us, you have been displeased; O turn yourself to us again.
2 Wewe umeifanya nchi kutetemeka; umeipasua pasua; uiponye nyufa zake, maana zinatikisika.
You have made the earth to tremble; you have broken it: heal the breaches thereof; for it shakes.
3 Wewe umewafanya watu wako kuona mambo magumu; umetufanya tunywe mvinyo wenye kutufanya kupepesuka.
You have showed your people hard things: you have made us to drink the wine of astonishment.
4 Kwa wale wanao kuheshimu wewe, wewe umeweka bandera ionekane dhidi ya wale wabebao upinde. (Selah)
You have given a banner to them that fear you, that it may be displayed because of the truth. (Selah)
5 Ili kwamba wale uwapendao waweze kuokolewa, utuokoe sisi kwa mkono wako wa kuume na unijibu.
That your beloved may be delivered; save with your right hand, and hear me.
6 Mungu ameongea katika utakatifu wake, “Nitashangilia; nitaigawanya Shekemu na kuligawa bonde la Sukothi.
God has spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.
7 Gileadi ni yangu, na Manase ni yangu na Ephraimu pia ni kofia yangu ya chuma; Yuda ni fimbo yangu ya kifalme.
Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the strength of my head; Judah is my lawgiver;
8 Moabu ni bakuli langu la kunawia; juu ya Edomu nitatupa kiatu changu; nitapiga kelele za ushindi kwa sababu ya Filisti.”
Moab is my wash pot; over Edom will I cast out my shoe: Philistia, triumph you because of me.
9 Ni nani atakaye nileta kwenye mji imara? Ni nani ataniongoza kwenda Edomu?
Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me into Edom?
10 Lakini wewe, Mungu, je, haukutukataa? Wewe hauendi vitani pamoja na jeshi letu.
Will not you, O God, which had cast us off? and you, O God, which did not go out with our armies?
11 Utusaidie dhidi ya adui yetu, maana msaada wa mwanadamu ni bure.
Give us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man.
12 Kwa msaada wa Mungu tutashinda; yeye atawakanyaga chini adui zetu.
Through God we shall do valiantly: for he it is that shall tread down our enemies.
