Psalms 30

1 I will extol you, O LORD; for you have lifted me up, and have not made my foes to rejoice over me.

Nitakutukuza wewe, Yahwe, kwa kuwa umeniinua na haujawaruhusu maadui zangu juu yangu.

2 O LORD my God, I cried unto you, and you have healed me.

Yahwe Mungu wangu, nilikulilia wewe kwa ajili ya msaada, nawe ukaniponya.

3 O LORD, you have brought up my soul from the grave: you have kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit. (Sheol h7585)

Yahwe, wewe umeitoa roho yangu kuzimuni; nawe umeniweka hai mbali na kaburi. (Sheol h7585)

4 Sing unto the LORD, O all of you saints of his, and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness.

Mwimbieni sifa Yahwe, ninyi waaminifu wake! Mshukuruni Bwana mkumbukapo utakatifu wake.

5 For his anger endures but a moment; in his favour is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning.

Kwa kuwa hasira yake ni ya muda tu; bali neema yake yadumu milele. Kilio huja usiku, bali furaha huja asubuhi.

6 And in my prosperity I said, I shall never be moved.

Kwa ujasiri nilisema, “Sitatikiswa kamwe.”

7 LORD, by your favour you have made my mountain to stand strong: you did hide your face, and I was troubled.

Yahwe, kwa neema yako uliniweka mimi kama mlima imara; lakini ulipouficha uso wako, nilisumbuka.

8 I cried to you, O LORD; and unto the LORD I made supplication.

Nilikulilia wewe, Yahwe, na kuomba msaada kwa Bwana wangu!

9 What profit is there in my blood, when I go down to the pit? Shall the dust praise you? shall it declare your truth?

Kuna faida gani katika kifo changu, kama nitaenda kaburini? Je, mavumbi yatakusifu wewe? Yatatangaza uaminifu wako?

10 Hear, O LORD, and have mercy upon me: LORD, be you my helper.

Sikia, Yahwe, na unihurumie! Yahwe, uwe msaidizi wangu.

11 You have turned for me my mourning into dancing: you have put off my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness;

Wewe umegeuza kuomboleza kwangu kuwa kucheza; wewe umeyaondoa mavazi yangu ya magunia na kunivisha furaha.

12 To the end that my glory may sing praise to you, and not be silent. O LORD my God, I will give thanks unto you for ever.

Hivyo sasa utukufu wangu utakuimbia sifa wewe na hautanyamaza; Yahwe Mungu wangu, nitakushukuru wewe milele!
