Psalms 86

1 Bow down your ear, O LORD, hear me: for I am poor and needy.

Sikia, Ee Yahwe, na unijibu, kwa kuwa ni maskini na mnyonge.

2 Preserve my soul; for I am holy: O you my God, save your servant that trusts in you.

Unilinde, maana mimi ni mwaminifu; Mungu wangu, umuokoe mtumishi wako anayekuamini.

3 Be merciful unto me, O Lord: for I cry unto you daily.

Unihurumie, Bwana, maana ninakulilia wewe mchana kutwa.

4 Rejoice the soul of your servant: for unto you, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.

Umfurahishe mtumishi wako, maana ni kwako, Bwana, ninaomba.

5 For you, Lord, are good, and ready to forgive; and abundant in mercy unto all them that call upon you.

Wewe, Bwana, ni mwema, na uko tayari kusamehe, na huonesha huruma kubwa kwa wale wanao kulilia wewe.

6 Give ear, O LORD, unto my prayer; and attend to the voice of my supplications.

Yahwe, sikiliza maombi yangu; sikia sauti ya ombi langu.

7 In the day of my trouble I will call upon you: for you will answer me.

Katika siku ya shida ninakuita wewe, kwa maana utanijibu.

8 Among the gods there is none like unto you, O Lord; neither are there any works like unto your works.

Katikati ya miungu hakuna wa kufananishwa na wewe, Bwana. Hakuna matendo kama matendo yako.

9 All nations whom you have made shall come and worship before you, O Lord; and shall glorify your name.

Mataifa yote ambayo umeyafanya yatakuja kwako na kusujudu mbele zako, Bwana. nao wataliheshimu jina lako.

10 For you are great, and do wondrous things: you are God alone.

Kwa kuwa wewe ni mkuu na utendaye mambo ya ajabu; wewe pekee ndiwe Mungu.

11 Teach me your way, O LORD; I will walk in your truth: unite my heart to fear your name.

Unifundishe njia zako, Yahwe. Kisha nitatembea katika kweli yako. Unifanye kukuheshimu wewe.

12 I will praise you, O Lord my God, with all my heart: and I will glorify your name for evermore.

Bwana Mungu wangu, nitakusifu kwa moyo wangu wote; nitalitukuza jina lako milele.

13 For great is your mercy toward me: and you have delivered my soul from the low hell. (Sheol h7585)

Kwa maana uaminifu wa agano lako ni mkuu kwangu; wewe umeokoa uhai wangu kutoka chini kuzimuni. (Sheol h7585)

14 O God, the proud are risen against me, and the assemblies of violent men have sought after my soul; and have not set you before them.

Ee Mungu, wenye kiburi wameinuka dhidi yangu. Kundi la watu wenye vurugu wanautafuta uhai wangu. Nao hawakuheshimu wewe.

15 But you, O Lord, are a God full of compassion, and gracious, long suffering, and abundant in mercy and truth.

Lakini wewe, Bwana, ni mwenye huruma na neema, hukasiliki haraka, na mwingi katika uaminifu wa agano lako na kweli.

16 O turn unto me, and have mercy upon me; give your strength unto your servant, and save the son of your handmaid.

Unigeukie na unihurumie; mpe nguvu zako mtumishi wako; umuokoe mwana wa mjakazi wako.

17 Show me a token for good; that they which hate me may see it, and be ashamed: because you, LORD, have helped me, and comforted me.

Unioneshe ishara ya fadhila zako. Kisha wale wanichukiao wataziona na kuaibishwa kwa sababu yako; Yahwe, umenisaidia na kunifariji.
