Zaburi 62
1 Katika ukimya ninamsubiri Mungu pekee; wokovu wangu watoka kwake.
To the chief Musician, to Jeduthun, A Psalm of David. Truly my soul waiteth upon God: from him [cometh] my salvation.
2 Yeye pekee ni mwamba wangu na wokovu wangu; yeye ni mnara wangu mrefu; sitasogezwa kamwe.
He only [is] my rock and my salvation; [he is] my defense; I shall not be greatly moved.
3 Mpaka lini, ninyi nyote, mtamshambulia mtu, ili kwamba mumpindue yeye kama ukuta ulio inama au kama fensi isiyo imara?
How long will ye imagine mischief against a man? ye shall be slain all of you: as a bowing wall [shall ye be], [and as] 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)
They only consult to cast [him] down from his excellence: they delight in lies: they bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly. (Selah)
5 Katika ukimya ninamsubiri Mungu pekee; kwa maana matumaini yangu yako kwake.
My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my expectation [is] from him.
6 Yeye pekee ni mwamba wangu na wokovu wangu; yeye ni mnara wangu mrefu; sitasogezwa.
He only [is] my rock and my salvation: [he is] my defense; 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: the rock of my strength, [and] my refuge, [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 at all times; ye people, pour out your heart before him: God [is] a refuge for us. (Selah)
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.
Surely men of low degree [are] vanity, [and] men of high degree [are] a lie: to be laid in the balance, they [are] altogether [lighter] than vanity.
10 Usiamini katika ukandamizaji au wizi; usitumainie utajiri, maana hawatazaa matunda; usiuweke moyo wako kwenye hivyo.
Trust not in oppression, and become not vain in robbery: if riches increase, set not your heart [upon them].
11 Mungu ameongea mara moja, mara mbili nimesikia hili: nguvu ni za Mungu.
God hath spoken once; twice have I heard this; that power [belongeth] to God.
12 Pia kwako, Bwana, ni uaminifu wa agano, maana humlipa kila mtu kwa kile alichokifanya.
Also to thee, O LORD, [belongeth] mercy: for thou renderest to every man according to his work.
