Zaburi 44:3
Psalms 44:3 · Biblica® Open Kiswahili Contemporary Version 2015
Sio kwa upanga wao waliipata nchi, wala si mkono wao uliwapatia ushindi; ilikuwa ni kitanga cha mkono wako wa kuume, na nuru ya uso wako, kwa kuwa uliwapenda.
Psalms 44:3 in English
Psalms 44:3 · Berean Standard Bible
For it was not by their sword that they took the land; their arm did not bring them victory. It was by Your right hand, Your arm, and the light of Your face, because You favored them.
Context
1Ee Mungu, tumesikia kwa masikio yetu,
baba zetu wametueleza
yale uliyotenda katika siku zao,
siku za kale. 2Kwa mkono wako uliwafukuza mataifa
na ukawapanda baba zetu,
uliangamiza mataifa
na kuwastawisha baba zetu. 3Sio kwa upanga wao waliipata nchi,
wala si mkono wao uliwapatia ushindi;
ilikuwa ni kitanga cha mkono wako wa kuume,
na nuru ya uso wako,
kwa kuwa uliwapenda. 4Wewe ni mfalme wangu na Mungu wangu,
unayeamuru ushindi kwa Yakobo. 5Kwa uwezo wako tunawasukuma nyuma watesi wetu;
kwa jina lako tunawakanyaga adui zetu.
