Psalms 85
1 “For the leader of the music. A psalm of the sons of Korah.” O LORD! thou hast been favorable to thy land; Thou hast brought back the captives of Jacob;
Kwa mwimbishaji. Zaburi ya wana wa Kora. Ee Bwana, ulionyesha wema kwa nchi yako. Ulimrejeshea Yakobo baraka zake.
2 Thou didst forgive the iniquity of thy people, And cover all their sins! (Pause)
Ulisamehe uovu wa watu wako, na kufunika dhambi zao zote.
3 Thou didst take away all thy displeasure, And abate the fierceness of thy wrath.
Uliweka kando ghadhabu yako yote na umegeuka na kuiacha hasira yako kali.
4 Restore us, O God of our salvation! And let thine anger towards us cease!
Ee Mungu Mwokozi wetu, uturejeshe tena, nawe uiondoe chuki yako juu yetu.
5 Wilt thou be angry with us for ever? Wilt thou continue thy wrath from generation to generation?
Je, utatukasirikia milele? Utaendeleza hasira yako kwa vizazi vyote?
6 Wilt thou not revive us again, That thy people may rejoice in thee?
Je, hutatuhuisha tena, ili watu wako wakufurahie?
7 Show us thy compassion, O LORD! And grant us thy salvation!
Utuonyeshe upendo wako usiokoma, Ee Bwana, utupe wokovu wako.
8 I will hear what God the LORD will speak: Truly he will speak peace to his people, and to his servants; Only let them not turn again to folly!
Nitasikiliza lile atakalosema Mungu aliye Bwana; anaahidi amani kwa watu wake, watakatifu wake: lakini nao wasirudie upumbavu.
9 Yea, his salvation is near to those who fear him, That glory may dwell in our land.
Hakika wokovu wake uko karibu na wale wamchao, ili utukufu wake udumu katika nchi yetu.
10 Mercy and truth shall meet together, Righteousness and peace shall kiss each other;
Upendo na uaminifu hukutana pamoja, haki na amani hubusiana.
11 Truth shall spring out of the earth; Righteousness shall look down from heaven.
Uaminifu huchipua kutoka nchi, haki hutazama chini kutoka mbinguni.
12 Yea, Jehovah will give prosperity, And our land shall yield her increase.
Naam, hakika Bwana atatoa kilicho chema, nayo nchi yetu itazaa mavuno yake.
13 Righteousness shall go before him, And set us in the way of his steps.
Haki itatangulia mbele yake na kutengeneza njia kwa ajili ya hatua zake.
