Zaburi 61

1 Sikia kulia kwangu, shughulikia maombi yangu.

For the Leader; with string-music. A Psalm of David. Hear my cry, O God; attend unto my prayer.

2 Kutokea mwisho wa nchi nitakuita wewe wakati moyo wangu umeelemewa; uniongoze kwenye mwamba ulio juu kuliko mimi.

From the end of the earth will I call unto Thee, when my heart fainteth; lead me to a rock that is too high for me.

3 Maana wewe umekuwa kimbilio langu la usalama, nguzo imara dhidi ya adui.

For Thou hast been a refuge for me, a tower of strength in the face of the enemy.

4 Uniache niishi hemani mwako milele! Nipate kimbilio salama chini ya makazi ya mbawa zako. (Selah)

I will dwell in Thy Tent for ever; I will take refuge in the covert of Thy wings. (Selah)

5 Kwa kuwa wewe, Mungu, umesikia viapo vyangu, wewe umenipa mimi urithi wa wale wanao liheshimu jina lako.

For Thou, O God, hast heard my vows; Thou hast granted the heritage of those that fear Thy name.

6 Wewe utaongeza maisha ya mfalme; miaka yake itakuwa kama vizazi vingi.

Mayest Thou add days unto the king's days! May his years be as many generations!

7 Yeye atabakia mbele ya Mungu milele.

May he be enthroned before God for ever! Appoint mercy and truth, that they may preserve him.

8 Nitaliimbia sifa jina lako milele ili kwamba niweze kufanya viapo vyangu kila siku.

So will I sing praise unto Thy name for ever, that I may daily perform my vows.
