Psalms 33
1 Rejoice in the LORD, O righteous ones; it is fitting for the upright to praise Him.
Furahini katika Yahwe, ninyi wenye haki; kusifu kwa wenye haki kwa faa sana.
2 Praise the LORD with the harp; make music to Him with ten strings.
Mshukuruni Bwana kwa kinubi; mwimbieni sifa kwa kinubi chenye nyuzi kumi.
3 Sing to Him a new song; play skillfully with a shout of joy.
Mwimbieni yeye wimbo mpaya; pigeni kwa ustadi na muimbe kwa furaha.
4 For the word of the LORD is upright, and all His work is trustworthy.
Kwa kuwa maneno ya Mungu ni ya hakika, na kila afanyacho ni haki.
5 The LORD loves righteousness and justice; the earth is full of His loving devotion.
Yeye hupenda haki na kutenda kwa haki. Dunia imejaa uaminifu wa agano la Yahwe.
6 By the word of the LORD the heavens were made, and all the stars by the breath of His mouth.
Kwa neno la Yahwe mbingu ziliumbwa, na nyota zote ziliumbwa kwa pumzi ya mdomo wake.
7 He piles up the waters of the sea; He puts the depths into storehouses.
Yeye huyakusanya maji ya baharini kama rundo; naye huiweka bahari katika ghala.
8 Let all the earth fear the LORD; let all the people of the world revere Him.
Basi ulimwengu wote umwogope Yahwe; wenyeji wote wa ulimwengu wamuhofu yeye.
9 For He spoke, and it came to be; He commanded, and it stood firm.
Kwa maana yeye alisema, na ikafanyika; aliamuru, na ikasimama mahali pake.
10 The LORD frustrates the plans of the nations; He thwarts the devices of the peoples.
Yahwe huvunja muungano wa mataifa; naye huishinda mipango ya wanadamu.
11 The counsel of the LORD stands forever, the purposes of His heart to all generations.
Mipango ya Yahwe husimama milele, mipango ya moyo wake ni kwa ajili ya vizazi vyote.
12 Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD, the people He has chosen as His inheritance!
Limebarikiwa taifa ambalo Mungu wao ni Yahwe, watu ambao yeye amewachagua kama warithi wake.
13 The LORD looks down from heaven; He sees all the sons of men.
Yahwe anatazama kutoka mbinguni; yeye huona watu wote.
14 From His dwelling place He gazes on all who inhabit the earth.
Kutokea mahali ambapo yeye anaishi, huwatazama wote waishio juu ya nchi.
15 He shapes the hearts of each; He considers all their works.
Yeye anaye iumba mioyo yao na kuyaona matendo yao yote.
16 No king is saved by his vast army; no warrior is delivered by his great strength.
Hakuna mfalme anayeokolewa na jeshi kubwa; shujaa haokolewi na nguvu zake nyingi.
17 A horse is a vain hope for salvation; even its great strength cannot save.
Farasi sio salama kwa ajili ya ushindi; ijapokuwa nguvu zake ni nyingi, hawezi kuokoa.
18 Surely the eyes of the LORD are on those who fear Him, on those whose hope is in His loving devotion
Tazama, macho ya Yahwe yako kwa wale wanao mhofu yeye, wale wanao litumainia agano lake takatifu
19 to deliver them from death and keep them alive in famine.
kuwaokoa maisha yao na mauti na kuwaweka hai wakati wa jaa.
20 Our soul waits for the LORD; He is our help and our shield.
Sisi tunamngoja Yahwe, yeye ni msaada wetu na ngao yetu.
21 For our hearts rejoice in Him, since we trust in His holy name.
Mioyo yetu hufurahia ndani yake, kwa kuwa tunaamini katika jina lake takatifu.
22 May Your loving devotion rest on us, O LORD, as we put our hope in You.
Yahwe, agano lako takatifu, liwe pamoja nasi tuwekapo tumaini letu katika wewe.
