Psalms 7
1 Shigaion of Dauid, which he sang unto the Lord, concerning the wordes of Chush the sonne of Iemini. O Lord my God, in thee I put my trust: saue me from all that persecute me, and deliuer me,
Ombolezo la Daudi kwa Bwana kwa sababu ya Kushi, Mbenyamini. Ee Bwana, Mungu wangu, ninakukimbilia wewe, uniokoe na kunikomboa na wote wanaonifuatia,
2 Least he deuoure my soule like a lion, and teare it in pieces, while there is none to helpe.
la sivyo watanirarua kama simba na kunichana vipande vipande, asiwepo wa kuniokoa.
3 O Lord my God, if I haue done this thing, if there be any wickednes in mine handes,
Ee Bwana, Mungu wangu, kama nimetenda haya na kuna hatia mikononi mwangu,
4 If I haue rewarded euill vnto him that had peace with mee, (yea I haue deliuered him that vexed me without cause)
au ikiwa nimemtenda uovu aliye na amani nami, au nimemnyangʼanya adui yangu pasipo sababu,
5 Then let the enemie persecute my soule and take it: yea, let him treade my life downe vpon the earth, and lay mine honour in the dust. (Selah)
basi adui anifuatie na kunipata, auponde uhai wangu ardhini na kunilaza mavumbini.
6 Arise, O Lord, in thy wrath, and lift vp thy selfe against the rage of mine enemies, and awake for mee according to the iudgement that thou hast appointed.
Amka kwa hasira yako, Ee Bwana, inuka dhidi ya ghadhabu ya adui zangu. Amka, Mungu wangu, uamue haki.
7 So shall the Congregation of the people compasse thee about: for their sakes therefore returne on hie.
Kusanyiko la watu na likuzunguke. Watawale kutoka juu.
8 The Lord shall iudge the people: Iudge thou me, O Lord, according to my righteousnesse, and according to mine innocencie, that is in mee.
Bwana na awahukumu kabila za watu. Nihukumu Ee Bwana, kwa kadiri ya haki yangu, kwa kadiri ya uadilifu wangu, Ewe Uliye Juu Sana.
9 Oh let the malice of the wicked come to an ende: but guide thou the iust: for the righteous God trieth the hearts and reines.
Ee Mungu mwenye haki, uchunguzaye mawazo na mioyo, komesha ghasia za waovu na ufanye wenye haki waishi kwa amani.
10 My defence is in God, who preserueth the vpright in heart.
Ngao langu ni Mungu Aliye Juu Sana, awaokoaye wanyofu wa moyo.
11 God iudgeth the righteous, and him that contemneth God euery day.
Mungu ni mwamuzi mwenye haki, Mungu aghadhibikaye kila siku.
12 Except he turne, he hath whet his sword: he hath bent his bowe and made it readie.
Kama hakutuhurumia, atanoa upanga wake, ataupinda na kuufunga uzi upinde wake.
13 Hee hath also prepared him deadly weapons: hee will ordeine his arrowes for them that persecute me.
Ameandaa silaha zake kali, ameweka tayari mishale yake ya moto.
14 Beholde, hee shall trauaile with wickednes: for he hath conceiued mischiefe, but he shall bring foorth a lye.
Yeye aliye na mimba ya uovu na achukuaye mimba ya ghasia huzaa uongo.
15 Hee hath made a pitte and digged it, and is fallen into the pit that he made.
Yeye achimbaye shimo na kulifukua hutumbukia katika shimo alilochimba mwenyewe.
16 His mischiefe shall returne vpon his owne head, and his crueltie shall fall vpon his owne pate.
Ghasia azianzishazo humrudia mwenyewe, ukatili wake humrudia kichwani.
17 I wil praise the Lord according to his righteousnes, and will sing praise to the Name of the Lord most high.
Nitamshukuru Bwana kwa ajili ya haki yake, na nitaliimbia sifa jina la Bwana Aliye Juu Sana.
