Psalms 65
1 God, it is right/appropriate [for us] to praise you in Jerusalem, and to do what [we] have promised you that [we] would do,
Kwako wewe, Mungu katika Sayuni, sifa zetu za kungoja; viapo vyetu vitaletwa kwako.
2 [because] you answer our prayers. People everywhere will come to you
Wewe usikiaye maombi yetu, miili yote itakuja kwako.
3 because of the sins [that they have committed]. Our many sins are like a very heavy burden to us, but you forgive us.
Maovu yanatutawala sisi; kama yalivyo makosa yetu, wewe utayasamehe.
4 You are pleased with those whom you have chosen to live close to your temple. We are happy with all the blessings that we receive from [worshiping in] your sacred temple.
Amebarikiwa mtu yule ambaye wewe huchagua kumsogeza karibu yako ili kwamba aishi hekaluni mwako. Tutatoshelezwa kwa uzuri wa nyumba yako, hekalu lako takatifu.
5 [God, when we pray to you], you answer us and save us by doing awesome deeds; you are the one who rescues us; people who live in very remote places on the earth, on the other side of the oceans, trust in you.
Katika haki wewe utatujibu sisi kwa kufanya mambo ya ajabu, Mungu wa wokovu wetu; wewe ambaye ni ujasiri wa mwisho wote wa nchi na wa wale walio mbali toka pande za bahari.
6 By your strength you put the mountains in their places, [showing that] you are very powerful.
Kwa manaa ni wewe ndiye uliyeifanya milima imara, wewe ambaye umefungwa mkanda wa uweza.
7 You calm the seas when they roar, and you stop the waves from crashing [on the shore]; you [also] calm people when they (make a great uproar/shout angrily together).
Ni wewe unyamazishaye ngurumo za baharini; ngurumo za mawimbi yake, na vurugu za watu.
8 People who live in very remote/distant places on the earth (are awed by/revere) you because of the miracles that you perform; because of what you do, people who live far to the west and far to the east shout joyfully.
Wale wanaoishi sehemu za mwisho kabisa wa nchi wanaogopa ushahidi wa matendo yako; wewe hufanya mashariki na magharibi kushangilia.
9 You take care of the soil and send rain, causing many good things to grow; you fill the streams with water, and cause grain/crops to grow. That is what you have determined/said would happen.
Wewe huja kuisaidia nchi; unainyeshea inchi; wewe unaiimarisha nchi vizuri; mto wa Mungu umejaa maji; wewe humpa mwanadamu nafaka unapokuwa umekwisha iandaa nchi.
10 You [send plenty of rain] on the fields that have been plowed, and you fill the furrows with water. With showers you soften the [hard clods/lumps of] soil, and you bless the soil by causing young plants to grow.
Wewe huyajaza matuta maji ya kutosha; wapasawazisha palipoinuka; wailainisha nchi kwa manyunyu ya mvua; waibariki mimea kati yao.
11 Because you bless the soil, there are very good crops at harvest season; wherever you have gone [MTY], good crops are very abundant [IDM].
Umeuvika mwaka taji ya wema wako; mvumo wa mapito yako hudondosha unono katika nchi.
12 The pastures are full of flocks [of sheep and goats]; [it is as though] the hills are very joyful.
Majani ya nyikani hudondosha umande, na vilima vimevikwa furaha.
13 The meadows are full of sheep and goats, and the valleys are full of grain; [it is as though] they [also] sing and shout joyfully.
Malisho yamevishwa mifugo; mabonde pia yamefunikwa na nafaka; yanapiga kelele za shangwe, nayo yanaimba.
