Zaburi 9
1 Nitamshukuru Yahweh kwa moyo wangu wote; nitayasimulia matendo yako makuu.
To him that excelleth vpon Muth Laben. A Psalme of Dauid. I will praise the Lord with my whole heart: I will speake of all thy marueilous workes.
2 Nitafurahi na kushangilia katika wewe; nitaliimbia jina lako, Wewe uliye juu.
I will bee glad, and reioyce in thee: I will sing praise to thy Name, O most High,
3 Maadui zangu wanaponirudia, hujikwaa na kuangamia mbele zako.
For that mine enemies are turned backe: they shall fall, and perish at thy presence.
4 Kwa kuwa umenitetea kwa haki; unakaa kwenye kiti chako cha enzi, ukihukumu kwa haki!
For thou hast maintained my right and my cause: thou art set in the throne, and iudgest right.
5 Uliwakemea mataifa; umewaharibu waovu; na kuwa futilia mbali jina lao milele na milele.
Thou hast rebuked the heathen: thou hast destroyed the wicked: thou hast put out their name for euer and euer.
6 Maadui wamebomoka kama magofu ulipo pindua miji yao. Kumbukumbu yao yote imepotea.
O enemie, destructions are come to a perpetual end, and thou hast destroyed the cities: their memoriall is perished with them.
7 Bali Yahweh anadumu milele; ameweka kiti chake cha enzi kwa ajili ya haki.
But the Lord shall sit for euer: hee hath prepared his throne for iudgement.
8 Naye atauhukumu ulimwengu kwa haki, na atatekeleza hukumu kwa ajili ya mataifa kwa haki.
For he shall iudge the worlde in righteousnes, and shall iudge the people with equitie.
9 Yahweh pia atakuwa ngome kwake aliye onewa, na ngome wakati wa shida.
The Lord also wil be a refuge for the poore, a refuge in due time, euen in affliction.
10 Wale wakujuao jina lako wanaamini katika Wewe, kwa ajili yako, Yahweh, usiwaache wale wakutafutao.
And they that know thy Name, will trust in thee: for thou, Lord, hast not failed them that seeke thee.
11 Mwibieni sifa Yahweh, anaye tawala katika Sayuni; waambieni mataifa yale aliyo yatenda.
Sing praises to the Lord, which dwelleth in Zion: shewe the people his workes.
12 Kwa kuwa Mungu alipizae kisasi cha damu hukumbuka; naye hasahau kilio cha anayeonewa.
For whe he maketh inquisition for blood, hee remembreth it, and forgetteth not the complaint of the poore.
13 Unihurumie, Yahweh; tazama vile ninavyo onewa na wale wanao nichukia, wewe ambaye unaweza kunikwapua katika lango la kifo.
Haue mercie vpon mee, O Lord: consider my trouble which I suffer of them that hate mee, thou that liftest me vp from the gates of death,
14 Oh, ili niweze kutangaza sifa zako. Katika lango la binti sayuni nitaufurahia wokovu wako!
That I may shewe all thy praises within the gates of the daughter of Zion, and reioyce in thy saluation.
15 Mataifa yamedidimia chini katika shimo ambalo walilolitengeneza; miguu yao imenaswa kwenye nyavu walioificha wenyewe.
The heathen are sunken downe in the pit that they made: in the nette that they hid, is their foote taken.
16 Yahweh amejidhihilisha; na kutekeleza hukumu; waovu wameangamia kwa matendo yao wenyewe. (Selah)
The Lord is knowen by executing iudgement: the wicked is snared in the worke of his owne handes. (Higgaion, Selah)
The wicked shall turne into hell, and all nations that forget God. (Sheol h7585)
18 Kwa kuwa mhitaji hata sahauliwa siku zote, wala matumaini ya wanyonge hayatapotea milele.
For the poore shall not bee alway forgotten: the hope of the afflicted shall not perish for euer.
19 Inuka, Yahweh, usimruhusu mtu kutushinda; mataifa na wahukumiwe mbele zako.
Vp Lord: let not man preuaile: let the heathen be iudged in thy sight.
20 Bwana, waogopeshe; mataifa waweze kutambua kuwa ni wanadamu tu. (Selah)
Put them in feare, O Lord, that the heathen may knowe that they are but men. (Selah)
