Zaburi 79
1 Zaburi ya Asafu. Mungu, Mataifa ya kigeni yameingia kwenye urithi wako; wamelinajisi hekalu lako takatifu; wameigeuza Yerusalemu kuwa chungu cha magofu.
A psalm of Asaph O God they have come [the] nations - in inheritance your they have made unclean [the] temple of holiness your they have made Jerusalem into heaps of ruins.
2 Wamezitoa maiti za watumishi wako ziwe chakula cha ndege wa angani, miili ya watakatifu wako iwe chakula cha wanyama wa nchi.
They have given [the] corpse[s] of servants your food to [the] bird[s] of the heavens [the] flesh faithful [people] your to [the] animal[s] of [the] earth.
3 Wamemwaga damu zao kama maji sehemu zote za Yesrusalemu, na hakuwepo wa kuwazika.
They have poured out blood their - like water round about Jerusalem and there not [was one who] buried [them].
4 Sisi tumekuwa aibu kwa majirani zetu, tukidhihakiwa na kuzomewa na wale wanaotuzunguka.
We have become a reproach to neighbors our mockery and derision to [those] around us.
5 Mpaka lini Yahwe? Utabaki kuwa na hasira milele? Ni kwa muda gani hasira yako ya wivu itawaka kama moto?
Until when? O Yahweh will you be angry? to perpetuity will it burn? like fire jealousy your.
6 Mwaga hasira yako juu ya mataifa ambayo hayakujui wewe na ufalme ambao hauliiti jina lako.
Pour out anger your against the nations which not they know you and on kingdoms which on name your not they call.
7 Kwa maana walimvamia Yakobo na waliharibu kijiji chake.
For it has consumed Jacob and habitation its they have devastated.
8 Usiendelee kukumbuka dhambi za baba zetu dhidi yetu; matendo yako ya huruma yaje kwetu, maana tuko chini.
May not you remember to us iniquities former [surely] quickly may they come to meet us compassion your for we have become low exceedingly.
9 Utusaidie, Mungu wa wokovu wetu, kwa ajili ya utukufu wa jina lako; utuokoe na usamehe dhambi zetu kwa ajili ya jina lako.
Help us - O God of salvation our on [the] matter of [the] glory of name your and deliver us and atone on sins our for [the] sake of name your.
10 Kwa nini mataifa yalazimike kusema, “Mungu wao yuko wapi?” Damu ya watumishi wako ambayo ilimwagwa na ilipize kisasi juu ya mataifa mbele ya macho yako.
Why? - will they say the nations where? [is] God their let it be known (among the nations *Q(k)*) to eyes our [the] vengeance of [the] blood of servants your poured out.
11 Kilio cha wafungwa na kije mbele zako; kwa uweza wa nguvu zako uwaweke ai wana wa mauti.
May it come before you [the] groaning of [the] prisoner according to [the] greatness of arm your leave over [the] sons of death.
12 Uwalipize majirani zetu vifuani mwao mara saba zaidi ya walivyo kutukana wewe, Bwana.
And repay to neighbors our sevenfold into bosom their reproach their which they reproached you O Lord.
13 Hivyo sisi watu wako na kondoo wa malisho yako tutakushukuru milele. Tutazisimulia sifa zako kwa vizazi vyote.
And we people your - and [the] sheep of pasture your we will give thanks to you for ever to a generation and a generation we will recount praise your.
