1
Wewe uchungaye Israeli, usikie, Wewe umwongozaye Yusufu kama kundi; Wewe uketiye juu ya makerubi, utoe nuru.
For the choirmaster. To the tune of “The Lilies of the Covenant.” A Psalm of Asaph. Hear us, O Shepherd of Israel, who leads Joseph like a flock; You who sit enthroned between the cherubim, shine forth
2
Mbele ya Efraimu, na Benyamini, na Manase, Uziamshe nguvu zako, Uje, utuokoe.
before Ephraim, Benjamin, and Manasseh. Rally Your mighty power and come to save us.
3
Ee Mungu, uturudishe, Uangazishe uso wako nasi tutaokoka.
Restore us, O God, and cause Your face to shine upon us, that we may be saved.
4
Ee Bwana, Mungu wa majeshi, hata lini Utayaghadhibikia maombi ya watu wako?
O LORD God of Hosts, how long will Your anger smolder against the prayers of Your people?
5
Umewalisha mkate wa machozi, Umewanywesha machozi kwa kipimo kikuu.
You fed them with the bread of tears and made them drink the full measure of their tears.
6
Unatufanya sababu ya ugomvi kwa jirani zetu, Na adui zetu wanacheka wao kwa wao.
You make us contend with our neighbors; our enemies mock us.
7
Ee Mungu wa majeshi, uturudishe, Uangazishe uso wako nasi tutaokoka.
Restore us, O God of Hosts, and cause Your face to shine upon us, that we may be saved.
8
Ulileta mzabibu kutoka Misri, Ukawafukuza mataifa ukaupanda.
You uprooted a vine from Egypt; You drove out the nations and transplanted it.
9
Ulitengeneza nafasi mbele yake, Nao ukatia mizizi sana ukaijaza nchi.
You cleared the ground for it, and it took root and filled the land.
10
Milima ilifunikwa kwa uvuli wake, Matawi yake ni kama mierezi ya Mungu.
The mountains were covered by its shade, and the mighty cedars with its branches.
11
Nao uliyaeneza matawi yake hata baharini, Na vichipukizi vyake hata kunako Mto.
It sent out its branches to the Sea, and its shoots toward the River.
12
Kwa nini umezibomoa kuta zake, Wakauchuma wote wapitao njiani?
Why have You broken down its walls, so that all who pass by pick its fruit?
13
Nguruwe wa msituni wanauharibu, Na hayawani wa kondeni wanautafuna.
The boar from the forest ravages it, and the creatures of the field feed upon it.
14
Ee Mungu wa majeshi, tunakusihi, urudi, Utazame toka juu uone, uujilie mzabibu huu.
Return, O God of Hosts, we pray! Look down from heaven and see! Attend to this vine—
15
Na mche ule ulioupanda Kwa mkono wako wa kuume; Na tawi lile ulilolifanya Kuwa imara kwa nafsi yako.
the root Your right hand has planted, the son You have raised up for Yourself.
16
Umechomwa moto; umekatwa; Kwa lawama ya uso wako wanapotea.
Your vine has been cut down and burned; they perish at the rebuke of Your countenance.
17
Mkono wako na uwe juu yake Mtu wa mkono wako wa kuume; Juu ya mwanadamu uliyemfanya Kuwa imara kwa nafsi yako;
Let Your hand be upon the man at Your right hand, on the son of man You have raised up for Yourself.
18
Basi hatutakuacha kwa kurudi nyuma; Utuhuishe nasi tutaliitia jina lako.
Then we will not turn away from You; revive us, and we will call on Your name.
19
Ee Bwana, Mungu wa majeshi, uturudishe, Uangazishe uso wako nasi tutaokoka.
Restore us, O LORD God of Hosts; cause Your face to shine upon us, that we may be saved.
