Psalms 112

1 Alleluia. Blessed is the man that fears the Lord: he will delight greatly in his commandments.

Msifuni Bwana. Heri mtu yule amchaye Bwana, mtu yule apendezwaye sana na amri zake.

2 His seed shall be mighty in the earth: the generation of the upright shall be blessed.

Watoto wake watakuwa wenye uwezo katika nchi, kizazi cha watu waadilifu kitabarikiwa.

3 Glory and riches shall be in his house; and his righteousness endures for evermore.

Nyumbani mwake kuna mali na utajiri, haki yake hudumu milele.

4 To the upright light has sprung up in darkness: he is pitiful, and merciful, and righteous.

Hata gizani nuru humzukia mtu mwadilifu, yule mwenye rehema, huruma na haki.

5 The good man is he that pities and lends: he will direct his affairs with judgement.

Mema yatamjia mtu yule aliye mkarimu na mwenye kukopesha bila riba, anayefanya mambo yake kwa haki.

6 For he shall not be moved for ever; the righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance.

Hakika hatatikisika kamwe, mtu mwenye haki atakumbukwa milele.

7 He shall not be afraid of [any] evil report: his heart is ready to trust in the Lord.

Hataogopa habari mbaya, moyo wake ni thabiti, ukimtegemea Bwana.

8 His heart is established, he shall not fear, till he shall see [his desire] upon his enemies.

Moyo wake ni salama, hatakuwa na hofu, mwishoni ataona ushindi dhidi ya adui zake.

9 He has dispersed abroad; he has given to the poor; his righteousness endures for evermore: his horn shall be exalted with honour.

Ametawanya vipawa vyake kwa ukarimu akawapa maskini; haki yake hudumu milele; pembe yake itatukuzwa kwa heshima.

10 The sinner shall see and be angry, he shall gnash his teeth, and consume away: the desire of the sinner shall perish.

Mtu mwovu ataona na kuchukizwa, atasaga meno yake na kutoweka, kutamani kwa mtu mwovu kutaishia patupu.
