Ee Mungu, uniokoe, Ee Bwana, unisaidie hima.
> Hurry, God, to deliver me. Come quickly to help me, Yahweh.
Waaibike, wafedheheke, Wanaoitafuta nafsi yangu. Warudishwe nyuma, watahayarishwe, Wapendezwao na shari yangu.
Let them be disappointed and confounded who seek my soul. Let those who desire my ruin be turned back in disgrace.
Warudi nyuma, na iwe aibu yao, Wanaosema, Ewe! Ewe!
Let them be turned because of their shame Who say, "Aha! Aha!"
Washangilie, wakufurahie, Wote wakutafutao. Waupendao wokovu wako Waseme daima, Atukuzwe Mungu.
Let all those who seek you rejoice and be glad in you. Let those who love your salvation continually say, "Let God be exalted!"
Nami ni maskini na mhitaji, Ee Mungu, unijilie kwa haraka. Ndiwe msaada wangu na mwokozi wangu, Ee Bwana, usikawie.
But I am poor and needy. Come to me quickly, God. You are my help and my deliverer. Yahweh, don't delay.
