Psalms 24

1 [A Psalm by David.] The earth is YHWH's, and its fullness; the world, and those who dwell in it.

Nchi ni ya Yahwe, na vyote viijazavyo, dunia, na wote wakaao ndani yake.

2 For he has founded it on the seas, and established it on the floods.

Kwa kuwa yeye aliianzisha juu ya bahari na kuiimarisha juu ya mito.

3 Who may ascend to YHWH's hill? Who may stand in his holy place?

Ni nani atakaye panda mlima wa Yahwe? Ni nani atakaye simama patakatifu pake?

4 He who has clean hands and a pure heart; who has not lifted up his soul to falsehood, and has not sworn deceitfully.

Yeye ambaye ana mikono misafi na moyo safi; ambaye hajauinua uongo, na haja apa kiapo ili kudanganya.

5 He shall receive a blessing from YHWH, righteousness from the God of his salvation.

Yeye atapokea baraka kutoka kwa Yahwe na haki kutoka kwa Mungu wa wokovu wake.

6 This is the generation of those who seek Him, who seek the face of the God of Jacob. (Selah)

Kizazi cha wale wamtafutao Mungu ni kama hiki, wale ambao wanautafuta uso wa Mungu wa Yakobo.

7 Lift up your heads, you gates. Be lifted up, you everlasting doors, and the King of glory will come in.

Inueni vichwa vyenu, ninyi malango; muinuliwe juu, milango ya milango ya kudumu, ili kwamba Mfalme wa utukufu aweze kuingia!

8 Who is the King of glory? YHWH strong and mighty, YHWH mighty in battle.

Huyu Mfalme wa utukufu ni nani? Yahwe, mwenye nguvu na uweza; Yahwe, mwenye uweza katika vita.

9 Lift up your heads, you gates; lift them up, you everlasting doors, and the King of glory will come in.

Inueni vichwa vyenu, ninyi malango; muinuliwe juu, milango ya kudumu, ili kwamba Mfalme wa utukufu aweze kuingia!

10 Who is this King of glory? YHWH of hosts is the King of glory. (Selah)

Huyu Mfalme wa utukufu ni nani? Yahwe wa majeshi, yeye ni Mfalme wa utukufu.
