1
Nimekukimbilia Wewe, Bwana, Nisiaibike milele.
In You, O LORD, I have taken refuge; let me never be put to shame.
2
Kwa haki yako uniponye, uniopoe, Unitegee sikio lako, uniokoe.
In Your justice, rescue and deliver me; incline Your ear and save me.
3
Uwe kwangu mwamba wa makazi yangu, Nitakakokwenda sikuzote. Umeamuru niokolewe, Ndiwe genge langu na ngome yangu.
Be my rock of refuge, where I can always go. Give the command to save me, for You are my rock and my fortress.
4
Ee Mungu wangu, uniopoe mkononi mwa mkorofi, Katika mkono wake mwovu, mdhalimu,
Deliver me, O my God, from the hand of the wicked, from the grasp of the unjust and ruthless.
5
Maana ndiwe taraja langu, Ee Bwana MUNGU, Tumaini langu tokea ujana wangu.
For You are my hope, O Lord GOD, my confidence from my youth.
6
Nimekutegemea Wewe tangu kuzaliwa, Ndiwe uliyenitoa tumboni mwa mama yangu, Ninakusifu Wewe daima.
I have leaned on You since birth; You pulled me from my mother’s womb. My praise is always for You.
7
Nimekuwa kitu cha ajabu kwa watu wengi, Na Wewe ndiwe kimbilio langu la nguvu.
I have become a portent to many, but You are my strong refuge.
8
Kinywa changu kitajazwa sifa zako, Na heshima yako mchana kutwa.
My mouth is filled with Your praise and with Your splendor all day long.
9
Usinitupe wakati wa uzee, Nguvu zangu zipungukapo usiniache.
Do not discard me in my old age; do not forsake me when my strength fails.
10
Kwa maana adui zangu wananiamba, Nao wanaoniotea roho yangu hushauriana.
For my enemies speak against me, and those who lie in wait for my life conspire,
11
Wakisema, Mungu amemwacha, Mfuatieni, mkamateni, hakuna wa kumponya.
saying, “God has forsaken him; pursue him and seize him, for there is no one to rescue him.”
12
Ee Mungu, usiwe mbali nami; Ee Mungu wangu, fanya haraka kunisaidia.
Be not far from me, O God. Hurry, O my God, to help me.
13
Waaibishwe, watoweshwe, adui za nafsi yangu. Wavikwe laumu na aibu wanaonitakia mabaya.
May the accusers of my soul be ashamed and consumed; may those who seek my harm be covered with scorn and disgrace.
14
Nami nitatumaini daima, Nitazidi kuongeza sifa zake zote.
But I will always hope and will praise You more and more.
15
Kinywa changu kitasimulia haki na wokovu wako Mchana kutwa; maana sijui hesabu yake.
My mouth will declare Your righteousness and Your salvation all day long, though I cannot know their full measure.
16
Nitakuja na mambo ya ajabu ya Bwana MUNGU; Nitawakumbusha watu haki yako Wewe peke yako.
I will come in the strength of the Lord GOD; I will proclaim Your righteousness—Yours alone.
17
Ee Mungu, umenifundisha tokea ujana wangu; Nimekuwa nikitangaza miujiza yako hata leo.
O God, You have taught me from my youth, and to this day I proclaim Your marvelous deeds.
18
Na hata nikiwa ni mzee mwenye mvi, Ee Mungu, usiniache. Hata niwaeleze watu wa kizazi hiki nguvu zako, Na kila atakayekuja uweza wako.
Even when I am old and gray, do not forsake me, O God, until I proclaim Your power to the next generation, Your might to all who are to come.
19
Na haki yako, Ee Mungu, Imefika juu sana. Wewe uliyefanya mambo makuu; Ee Mungu, ni nani aliye kama Wewe?
Your righteousness reaches to the heavens, O God, You who have done great things. Who, O God, is like You?
20
Wewe, uliyetuonyesha mateso mengi, mabaya, Utatuhuisha tena. Utatupandisha juu tena Tokea pande za chini ya nchi.
Though You have shown me many troubles and misfortunes, You will revive me once again. Even from the depths of the earth You will bring me back up.
21
Laiti ungeniongezea ukuu! Urejee tena na kunifariji moyo.
You will increase my honor and comfort me once again.
22
Nami nitakushukuru kwa kinanda, Na kweli yako, Ee Mungu wangu. Nitakuimbia Wewe kwa kinubi, Ee Mtakatifu wa Israeli.
So I will praise You with the harp for Your faithfulness, O my God; I will sing praise to You with the lyre, O Holy One of Israel.
23
Midomo yangu itafurahi sana nikuimbiapo, Na nafsi yangu uliyoikomboa.
When I sing praise to You my lips will shout for joy, along with my soul, which You have redeemed.
24
Ulimi wangu nao utasimulia Haki yako mchana kutwa. Kwa maana wameaibishwa, Wametahayarika, wanaonitakia mabaya.
My tongue will indeed proclaim Your righteousness all day long, for those who seek my harm are disgraced and confounded.
