Psalms 146

1 Praise YAH! Praise, O my soul, YHWH.

Msifu Yahwe. Msifu Yahwe, ee nafsi yangu.

2 I praise YHWH during my life, I sing praise to my God while I exist.

Ninamsifu Mungu maisha yangu yote; nitamuimbia sifa Mungu wangu ni ngali ni hai.

3 Do not trust in princes—in a son of man, For he has no deliverance.

Msiweke imani katika wakuu au wanadamu, ambaye katika yeye hamna wokovu.

4 His spirit goes forth, he returns to his earth, In that day his thoughts have perished.

Wakati uhai wa pumzi ya mtu unapokoma, hurudi aridhini; siku hiyo mipango yake hufikia mwisho.

5 O the blessedness of him Who has the God of Jacob for his help, His hope [is] on his God YHWH,

Amebarikiwa yule ambaye Mungu wa Yakobo ni msaada wake, ambaye tumaini lake liko katika Yahwe Mungu wake.

6 Making the heavens and earth, The sea and all that [is] in them, Who is keeping truth for all time,

Yahwe aliumba mbingu na nchi, bahari, na vyote vilivyomo; huitazama kweli milele.

7 Doing judgment for the oppressed, Giving bread to the hungry.

Yeye hutekeleza hukumu kwa ajili ya walioonewa na huwapa chakula wenye njaa. Yahwe huwafungua waliofungwa;

8 YHWH is loosing the prisoners, YHWH is opening (the eyes of) the blind, YHWH is raising the bowed down, YHWH is loving the righteous,

Yahwe huyafungua macho ya kipofu; Yahwe huwainua walioinama; Yahwe huwapenda watu wenye haki.

9 YHWH is preserving the strangers, He causes the fatherless and widow to stand, And He turns the way of the wicked upside down.

Yahwe huwalinda wageni katika nchi; huwainua yatima na wajane, bali huipinga njia ya wasio haki.

10 YHWH reigns for all time, Your God, O Zion, to generation and generation, Praise YAH!

Yahwe atatawala milele, Mungu wako, Sayuni, kwa vizazi vyote. Msifuni Yahwe.
