Psalms 146

1 Hallelujah. Praise the LORD, O my soul.

Msifuni Bwana! Ee nafsi yangu, umsifu Bwana,

2 I will praise the LORD while I live; I will sing praises unto my God while I have my being.

Nitamsifu Bwana maisha yangu yote; nitamwimbia Mungu wangu sifa wakati wote niishipo.

3 Put not your trust in princes, nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help.

Usiweke tumaini lako kwa wakuu, kwa wanadamu ambao hufa, ambao hawawezi kuokoa.

4 His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his dust; in that very day his thoughts perish.

Roho yao itokapo hurudi mavumbini, siku hiyo hiyo mipango yao yote hukoma.

5 Happy is he whose help is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the LORD his God,

Heri yeye ambaye Mungu wa Yakobo ni msaada wake, ambaye tumaini lake ni katika Bwana, Mungu wake,

6 Who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is; who keepeth truth for ever;

Muumba wa mbingu na nchi, na bahari na vyote vilivyomo ndani yake: Bwana anayedumu kuwa mwaminifu milele na milele.

7 Who executeth justice for the oppressed; who giveth bread to the hungry. The LORD looseth the prisoners;

Naye huwapatia haki walioonewa na kuwapa wenye njaa chakula. Bwana huwaweka wafungwa huru,

8 The LORD openeth the eyes of the blind; the LORD raiseth up them that are bowed down; the LORD loveth the righteous;

Bwana huwafumbua vipofu macho, Bwana huwainua waliolemewa na mizigo yao, Bwana huwapenda wenye haki.

9 The LORD preserveth the strangers; He upholdeth the fatherless and the widow; but the way of the wicked He maketh crooked.

Bwana huwalinda wageni na kuwategemeza yatima na wajane, lakini hupinga njia za waovu.

10 The LORD will reign for ever, Thy God, O Zion, unto all generations. Hallelujah.

Bwana atamiliki milele, Mungu wako, ee Sayuni, kwa vizazi vyote. Msifuni Bwana.
