Psalms 6

1 For the choirmaster. With stringed instruments, according to Sheminith. A Psalm of David. O LORD, do not rebuke me in Your anger or discipline me in Your wrath.

1 Ee Bwana, usinikemee katika hasira yako, wala usiniadhibu katika ghadhabu yako.

2 Be merciful to me, O LORD, for I am frail; heal me, O LORD, for my bones are in agony.

2 Unirehemu Bwana, kwa maana nimedhoofika; Ee Bwana, uniponye, kwa maana mifupa yangu ina maumivu makali.

3 My soul is deeply distressed. How long, O LORD, how long?

3 Nafsi yangu ina uchungu mwingi. Mpaka lini, Ee Bwana, mpaka lini?

4 Turn, O LORD, and deliver my soul; save me because of Your loving devotion.

4 Geuka Ee Bwana, unikomboe, uniokoe kwa sababu ya fadhili zako.

5 For there is no mention of You in death; who can praise You from Sheol?

5 Hakuna mtu anayekukumbuka akiwa amekufa. Ni nani awezaye kukusifu akiwa kuzimu?

6 I am weary from groaning; all night I flood my bed with weeping and drench my couch with tears.

6 Nimechakaa kwa kulia kwa huzuni; usiku kucha nafurikisha kitanda changu kwa machozi; nimelowesha viti vyangu vya fahari kwa machozi.

7 My eyes fail from grief; they grow dim because of all my foes.

7 Macho yangu yamedhoofika kwa kuhuzunika, yamedhoofika kwa sababu ya adui zangu wote.

8 Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity, for the LORD has heard my weeping.

8 Kaeni mbali nami, ninyi nyote mtendao mabaya, kwa maana Bwana amesikia kulia kwangu.

9 The LORD has heard my cry for mercy; the LORD accepts my prayer.

9 Bwana amesikia kilio changu kwa huruma, Bwana amekubali sala yangu.

10 All my enemies will be ashamed and dismayed; they will turn back in sudden disgrace.

10 Adui zangu wote wataaibika na kufadhaika, watarudi nyuma kwa aibu ya ghafula.
