< Psalms 92 >

1 A psalm. A song for the Sabbath day. How good it is to thank the Lord, to sing praises to you, Most High,
Zaburi. Wimbo wa siku ya Sabato. Ni vyema kumshukuru Bwana na kuliimbia jina lako, Ee Uliye Juu Sana,
2 to tell of your trustworthy love in the morning, and your faithfulness in the night,
kuutangaza upendo wako asubuhi, na uaminifu wako wakati wa usiku,
3 to the music of a ten-stringed harp and the melody of a lyre.
kwa zeze yenye nyuzi kumi na kwa sauti ya kinubi.
4 You've made me so happy, Lord, because of all you've done for me! I sing for joy at what you've done!
Ee Bwana, kwa kuwa matendo yako yamenifurahisha, nitaziimba kwa shangwe kazi za mikono yako.
5 Lord, what you do is amazing; your thoughts are very profound!
Ee Bwana, tazama jinsi yalivyo makuu matendo yako, tazama jinsi yalivyo ya kina mawazo yako!
6 Only senseless people and fools don't know and understand this:
Mjinga hafahamu, mpumbavu haelewi,
7 even though the wicked grow up quickly like grass, and even though people who do evil flourish, they will be destroyed forever!
ingawa waovu huchipua kama majani na wote watendao mabaya wanastawi, wataangamizwa milele.
8 But you, Lord, rule on high forever.
Bali wewe, Ee Bwana, utatukuzwa milele.
9 Your enemies, Lord, your enemies will die; everyone who does evil will be destroyed!
Ee Bwana, hakika adui zako, hakika adui zako wataangamia. Wote watendao mabaya watatawanyika.
10 But you have made me as powerful as a wild bull; you have anointed me with the best olive oil.
Umeitukuza pembe yangu kama ile ya nyati dume, mafuta mazuri yamemiminwa juu yangu.
11 My eyes look with pleasure to see my enemies defeated; my ears have heard the downfall of those who tried to attack me.
Macho yangu yamewaona adui zangu wakishindwa, masikio yangu yamesikia maangamizi ya adui zangu waovu.
12 Those who live right flourish like a palm tree; they grow tall like a cedar tree in Lebanon.
Wenye haki watastawi kama mtende, watakuwa kama mwerezi wa Lebanoni,
13 They are planted in the house of the Lord; they thrive in the courts of our God.
waliopandwa katika nyumba ya Bwana, watastawi katika nyua za Mungu wetu.
14 Even when they are old they will still produce fruit, staying fresh and green.
Wakati wa uzee watakuwa bado wanazaa matunda, watakuwa wabichi tena wamejaa nguvu,
15 They will declare, “The Lord does what is right! He is my rock! There is no wrong in him!”
wakitangaza, “Bwana ni mkamilifu; yeye ni Mwamba wangu, na ndani yake hamna uovu.”
