Zaburi 62

1 Katika ukimya ninamsubiri Mungu pekee; wokovu wangu watoka kwake.

Unto the end, for Idithun, a psalm of David. Shall not my soul be subject to God? for from him is my salvation.

2 Yeye pekee ni mwamba wangu na wokovu wangu; yeye ni mnara wangu mrefu; sitasogezwa kamwe.

For he is my God and my saviour: he is my protector, I shall be moved no more.

3 Mpaka lini, ninyi nyote, mtamshambulia mtu, ili kwamba mumpindue yeye kama ukuta ulio inama au kama fensi isiyo imara?

How long do you rush in upon a man? you all kill, as if you were thrusting down a leaning wall, and a tottering fence.

4 Wanashauliana naye ili tu kumshusha chini kutoka kwenye nafasi yake heshimiwa; wao wanapenda kuongea uongo; wanambariki yeye kwa midomo yao, lakini mioyoni mwao wana mlaani yeye. (Selah)

But they have thought to cast away my price; I ran in thirst: they blessed with their mouth, but cursed with their heart.

5 Katika ukimya ninamsubiri Mungu pekee; kwa maana matumaini yangu yako kwake.

But be thou, O my soul, subject to God: for from him is my patience.

6 Yeye pekee ni mwamba wangu na wokovu wangu; yeye ni mnara wangu mrefu; sitasogezwa.

For he is my God and my saviour: he is my helper, I shall not be moved.

7 Na Mungu ni wokovu wangu na utukufu wangu; mwamba wa nguvu yangu na kimbilio langu salama liko katika Mungu.

In God is my salvation and my glory: he is the God of my help, and my hope is in God.

8 Mwaminini Mungu wakati wote, ninyi watu; mimina moyo wako mbele zake; Mungu ni kimbilio salama kwa ajili yetu. (Selah)

Trust in him, all ye congregation of people: pour out your hearts before him. God is our helper for ever.

9 Hakika watu wenye msimamo mdogo ni ubatili, na watu wenye msimamo mkubwa ni waongo; wao watakuwa wepesi kwenye mzani; uzito wao pamoja ni wepesi kuliko kitu chochote.

But vain are the sons of men, the sons of men are liars in the balances: that by vanity they may together deceive.

10 Usiamini katika ukandamizaji au wizi; usitumainie utajiri, maana hawatazaa matunda; usiuweke moyo wako kwenye hivyo.

Trust not in iniquity, and cover not robberies: if riches abound, set not your heart upon them.

11 Mungu ameongea mara moja, mara mbili nimesikia hili: nguvu ni za Mungu.

God hath spoken once, these two things have I heard, that power belongeth to God,

12 Pia kwako, Bwana, ni uaminifu wa agano, maana humlipa kila mtu kwa kile alichokifanya.

And mercy to thee, O Lord; for thou wilt render to every man according to his works.
