Unirehemu, Ee Mungu, unirehemu mimi, Maana nafsi yangu imekukimbilia Wewe. Nitaukimbilia uvuli wa mbawa zako, Hata misiba hii itakapopita.
For the choirmaster. To the tune of “Do Not Destroy.” A Miktam of David, when he fled from Saul into the cave. Have mercy on me, O God, have mercy, for in You my soul takes refuge. In the shadow of Your wings I will take shelter until the danger has passed.
2
Nitamwita MUNGU Aliye juu, Mungu anitimiziaye mambo yangu.
I cry out to God Most High, to God who fulfills His purpose for me.
3
Atapeleka toka mbinguni na kuniokoa, Atukanapo yule atakaye kunimeza. Mungu atazipeleka Fadhili zake na kweli yake
He reaches down from heaven and saves me; He rebukes those who trample me. Selah God sends forth His loving devotion and His truth.
4
Nafsi yangu i kati ya simba, Nitastarehe kati yao waliowaka moto. Wanadamu meno yao ni mikuki na mishale, Na ndimi zao ni upanga mkali.
My soul is among the lions; I lie down with ravenous beasts—with men whose teeth are spears and arrows, whose tongues are sharp swords.
5
Ee Mungu, utukuzwe juu ya mbingu, Na juu ya nchi yote uwe utukufu wako.
Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; may Your glory cover all the earth.
6
Wameweka wavu ili kuninasa miguu; Nafsi yangu imeinama; Wamechimba shimo mbele yangu; Wametumbukia ndani yake!
They spread a net for my feet; my soul was despondent. They dug a pit before me, but they themselves have fallen into it! Selah
7
Ee Mungu, moyo wangu u thabiti, Moyo wangu u thabiti. Nitaimba, nitaimba zaburi,
My heart is steadfast, O God, my heart is steadfast. I will sing and make music.
8
Amka, utukufu wangu. Amka, kinanda na kinubi, Nitaamka alfajiri.
Awake, my glory! Awake, O harp and lyre! I will awaken the dawn.
9
Ee Bwana, nitakushukuru kati ya watu, Nitakuimbia zaburi kati ya mataifa.
I will praise You, O Lord, among the nations; I will sing Your praises among the peoples.
10
Maana fadhili zako ni kubwa hata mbinguni, Na uaminifu wako hata mawinguni.
For Your loving devotion reaches to the heavens, and Your faithfulness to the clouds.
11
Ee Mungu, utukuzwe juu ya mbingu, Na juu ya nchi yote uwe utukufu wako.
Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; may Your glory cover all the earth.
