< Isaiah 12 >
1 And in that day you shall say, O LORD, I will praise you: though you were angry with me, your anger is turned away, and you comforted me.
Katika siku ile utasema: “Nitakusifu wewe, Ee Bwana. Ingawa ulinikasirikia, hasira yako imegeukia mbali nawe umenifariji.
2 Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and not be afraid: for the LORD JEHOVAH is my strength and my song; he also is become my salvation.
Hakika Mungu ni wokovu wangu; nitamtumaini wala sitaogopa. Bwana, Bwana, ni nguvu zangu na wimbo wangu; amekuwa wokovu wangu.”
3 Therefore with joy shall you draw water out of the wells of salvation.
Kwa furaha mtachota maji kutoka visima vya wokovu.
4 And in that day shall you say, Praise the LORD, call on his name, declare his doings among the people, make mention that his name is exalted.
Katika siku hiyo mtasema: “Mshukuruni Bwana, mliitie jina lake; julisheni miongoni mwa mataifa yale aliyoyafanya, tangazeni kuwa jina lake limetukuka.
5 Sing to the LORD; for he has done excellent things: this is known in all the earth.
Mwimbieni Bwana, kwa kuwa ametenda mambo makuu, hili na lijulikane duniani kote.
6 Cry out and shout, you inhabitant of Zion: for great is the Holy One of Israel in the middle of you.
Pazeni sauti mwimbe kwa furaha, watu wa Sayuni, kwa maana mkuu ni yeye Aliye Mtakatifu wa Israeli miongoni mwenu.”
