Saame 73
1 Ko e Saame ʻa ʻAsafi. Ko e moʻoni ʻoku angalelei ʻae ʻOtua ki ʻIsileli, ʻio, kiate kinautolu ʻoku loto maʻa.
Zaburi ya Asafu. Hakika Mungu ni mwema kwa Israeli, kwa wale ambao mioyo yao ni safi.
2 Ka ko au naʻe meimei mole hoku vaʻe: naʻaku meimei hekea ʻi heʻeku ngaahi laka.
Bali kwangu mimi, miguu yangu ilikuwa karibu kuteleza; nilikuwa karibu mguu wangu kuachia uliposimama.
3 He naʻaku meheka ʻi he kau vale, ʻi heʻeku mamata ki he fiemālie ʻae angakovi.
Kwa maana niliwaonea wivu wenye kujivuna nilipoona kufanikiwa kwa waovu.
4 He ʻoku ʻikai hanau mamahi ʻi heʻenau mate: ka ʻoku maʻu pe honau mālohi.
Wao hawana taabu, miili yao ina afya na nguvu.
5 ʻOku ʻikai moʻua ʻi he mamahi ʻakinautolu ʻo hangē ko e kakai kehe; pea ʻoku ʻikai ʻahiʻahiʻi ʻakinautolu ʻo hangē ko e kakai niʻihi.
Hawapati shida zinazowataabisha watu wengine, wala hawapati mapigo kama wanadamu wengine.
6 Ko ia ʻoku takatakai ai ʻakinautolu ʻe he laukau ʻo hangē ko e ukamea fihifihi; ʻoku ʻufiʻufi ʻakinautolu ʻe he angamālohi ʻo hangē ko e kofu.
Kwa hiyo kiburi ni mkufu wao, wamejivika jeuri.
7 ʻOku hohopo honau mata ʻi heʻenau sino: ʻoku nau maʻu meʻa ʻo lahi hake ʻi he holi ʻoe loto.
Uovu hutoka katika mioyo yao iliyokufa ganzi, majivuno maovu kutoka mioyoni mwao hauna kikomo.
8 Kuo kovi ʻakinautolu, pea lea kovi ʻi he fakamālohi: ʻoku nau lea fakafiefielahi.
Hudhihaki na kusema kwa ukorofi, katika majivuno yao wanatishia kutesa.
9 ʻOku nau hangatonu atu honau ngutu ʻo angatuʻu ki he ngaahi langi, pea ʻoku ʻeveʻeva honau ʻelelo ʻi māmani.
Vinywa vyao huweka madai hata kwa mbingu, nazo ndimi zao humiliki duniani.
10 Ko ia ʻoku liu mai ai ki heni hono kakai: pea ʻoku tatau ʻae vai kiate kinautolu ke pito ʻae ipu.
Kwa hiyo watu wao huwageukia na kunywa maji tele.
11 Pea ʻoku nau pehē, “ʻOku ʻilo fēfē ʻe he ʻOtua? Pea ʻoku ai ha ʻilo ʻi he Fungani Māʻolunga?”
Wanasema, “Mungu awezaje kujua? Je, Yeye Aliye Juu Sana anayo maarifa?”
12 Vakai, ko eni ʻae kau angakovi ʻoku fiemālie ʻi he māmani; ʻoku tupu pē ʻenau koloa.
Hivi ndivyo walivyo waovu: siku zote hawajali, wanaongezeka katika utajiri.
13 Ko e moʻoni ʻoku taʻeʻaonga ʻeku fakamaʻa hoku loto, mo ʻeku fanofano hoku nima ʻi he māʻoniʻoni.
Hakika nimeuweka moyo wangu safi bure, ni bure nimenawa mikono yangu nisiwe na hatia.
14 He kuo ʻahiʻahiʻi au ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē, pea kuo tautea au ʻi he pongipongi kotoa pē,
Mchana kutwa nimetaabika, nimeadhibiwa kila asubuhi.
15 Kapau te u tala, te u lea pehē; vakai, ko ʻeku fai hala ki he toʻutangata ʻo hoʻo fānau.
Kama ningesema, “Nitasema hivi,” ningelikuwa nimewasaliti watoto wako.
16 Pea ʻi heʻeku ʻahiʻahi ke ʻilo ʻae meʻa ni, naʻe faingataʻa ia kiate au;
Nilipojaribu kuelewa haya yote, yalikuwa magumu kwangu kuelewa.
17 Ka ʻi heʻeku hū ki he faletapu ʻoe ʻOtua; naʻaku toki ʻilo ai honau ikuʻanga.
Mpaka nilipoingia patakatifu pa Mungu, ndipo nilipotambua mwisho wao.
18 Ko e moʻoni naʻa ke tuku ʻakinautolu ʻi he ngaahi potu hekeheke: kuo ke laku hifo ʻakinautolu ki he ngaahi fakaʻauha.
Hakika unawaweka mahali pa utelezi, unawaangusha chini kwa uharibifu.
19 Kuo ʻomi vave ʻakinautolu ki he malaʻia, ʻo hangē ko e kemo pe taha ʻoe mata! Kuo fakaʻauha ʻaupito ʻakinautolu ʻi he ngaahi ilifia.
Tazama jinsi wanavyoangamizwa ghafula, wanatoweshwa kabisa na vitisho!
20 Hangē ko e misi ʻoka ʻā hake ha taha; ke pehē pe, ʻE ʻEiki, ʻoka ke ka ʻā hake, te ke manukiʻi honau tatau.
Kama ndoto mtu aamkapo, hivyo wakati uinukapo, Ee Bwana, utawatowesha kama ndoto.
21 Naʻe mamahi pehē pe hoku laumālie, pea naʻe mahuhuhuhu ai hoku loto.
Wakati moyo wangu ulipohuzunishwa, na roho yangu ilipotiwa uchungu,
22 Naʻe pehē ʻeku vale, pea naʻe ʻikai te u ʻilo: naʻaku hangē ko e manu ʻi ho ʻao.
nilikuwa mpumbavu na mjinga, nilikuwa mnyama mkatili mbele yako.
23 Ka ko e moʻoni ʻoku ou ʻiate koe maʻuaipē: pea kuo ke puke au ʻi hoku nima toʻomataʻu.
Hata hivyo niko pamoja nawe siku zote, umenishika mkono wangu wa kuume.
24 Te ke tataki au ʻi hoʻo poto, pea hili ia te ke maʻu au ki ho nāunau.
Unaniongoza kwa shauri lako, hatimaye utaniingiza katika utukufu.
25 He ko hai mo koe ʻoku ou maʻu ʻi he loto langi? Pea ʻoku ʻikai ha tokotaha ʻi māmani ʻoku ou holi ki ai, ka ko koe pē.
Nani niliye naye mbinguni ila wewe? Dunia haina chochote ninachokitamani ila wewe.
26 ʻOku vaivai hoku kakano mo hoku loto: ka ko e makatuʻu ʻo hoku loto ʻae ʻOtua, mo hoku ʻinasi ʻo taʻengata.
Mwili na moyo wangu vyaweza kushindwa, bali Mungu ni nguvu ya moyo wangu na fungu langu milele.
27 Vakai, ʻe ʻauha ʻakinautolu ʻoku mamaʻo ʻiate koe: kuo ke fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku ʻalu meiate koe ʻo fai kovi.
Wale walio mbali nawe wataangamia, unawaangamiza wote wasio waaminifu kwako.
28 Ka ʻoku lelei kiate au ʻeku ʻunuʻunu ke ofi ki he ʻOtua: kuo u falala ki he ʻEiki ko Sihova, koeʻuhi ke u fakahā ai hoʻo ngāue kotoa pē.
Lakini kwangu mimi, ni vyema kuwa karibu na Mungu. Nimemfanya Bwana Mwenyezi kimbilio langu; nami nitayasimulia matendo yako yote.
