Psalms 85

1 To the chief Musician. Of the sons of Korah. A Psalm. Thou hast been favourable, Jehovah, unto thy land; thou hast turned the captivity of Jacob:

Kwa mwimbishaji. Zaburi ya wana wa Kora. Ee Bwana, ulionyesha wema kwa nchi yako. Ulimrejeshea Yakobo baraka zake.

2 Thou hast forgiven the iniquity of thy people; thou hast covered all their sin. (Selah)

Ulisamehe uovu wa watu wako, na kufunika dhambi zao zote.

3 Thou hast withdrawn all thy wrath; thou hast turned from the fierceness of thine anger.

Uliweka kando ghadhabu yako yote na umegeuka na kuiacha hasira yako kali.

4 Bring us back, O God of our salvation, and cause thine indignation toward us to cease.

Ee Mungu Mwokozi wetu, uturejeshe tena, nawe uiondoe chuki yako juu yetu.

5 Wilt thou be angry with us for ever? wilt thou draw out thine anger from generation to generation?

Je, utatukasirikia milele? Utaendeleza hasira yako kwa vizazi vyote?

6 Wilt thou not revive us again, that thy people may rejoice in thee?

Je, hutatuhuisha tena, ili watu wako wakufurahie?

7 Shew us thy loving-kindness, O Jehovah, and grant us thy salvation.

Utuonyeshe upendo wako usiokoma, Ee Bwana, utupe wokovu wako.

8 I will hear what God, Jehovah, will speak; for he will speak peace unto his people, and to his godly ones: but let them not turn again to folly.

Nitasikiliza lile atakalosema Mungu aliye Bwana; anaahidi amani kwa watu wake, watakatifu wake: lakini nao wasirudie upumbavu.

9 Surely his salvation is nigh them that fear him, that glory may dwell in our land.

Hakika wokovu wake uko karibu na wale wamchao, ili utukufu wake udumu katika nchi yetu.

10 Loving-kindness and truth are met together; righteousness and peace have kissed each other:

Upendo na uaminifu hukutana pamoja, haki na amani hubusiana.

11 Truth shall spring out of the earth, and righteousness shall look down from the heavens.

Uaminifu huchipua kutoka nchi, haki hutazama chini kutoka mbinguni.

12 Jehovah also will give what is good, and our land shall yield its increase.

Naam, hakika Bwana atatoa kilicho chema, nayo nchi yetu itazaa mavuno yake.

13 Righteousness shall go before him, and shall set his footsteps on the way.

Haki itatangulia mbele yake na kutengeneza njia kwa ajili ya hatua zake.
