Psalms 96
1 Sing to Jehovah a new song, Sing to Jehovah all the earth.
Mwimbieni Bwana wimbo mpya; mwimbieni Bwana dunia yote.
2 Sing to Jehovah, bless His name, Proclaim from day to day His salvation.
Mwimbieni Bwana, lisifuni jina lake; tangazeni wokovu wake siku baada ya siku.
3 Declare among nations His honour, Among all the peoples His wonders.
Tangazeni utukufu wake katikati ya mataifa, matendo yake ya ajabu miongoni mwa mataifa yote.
4 For great [is] Jehovah, and praised greatly, Fearful He [is] over all gods.
Kwa kuwa Bwana ni mkuu mwenye kustahili kusifiwa kuliko wote; yeye ni wa kuogopwa kuliko miungu yote.
5 For all the gods of the peoples [are] nought, And Jehovah made the heavens.
Kwa maana miungu yote ya mataifa ni sanamu, lakini Bwana aliziumba mbingu.
6 Honour and majesty [are] before Him, Strength and beauty in His sanctuary.
Fahari na enzi viko mbele yake; nguvu na utukufu vimo patakatifu pake.
7 Ascribe to Jehovah, O families of the peoples, Ascribe to Jehovah honour and strength.
Mpeni Bwana, enyi jamaa za mataifa, mpeni Bwana utukufu na nguvu.
8 Ascribe to Jehovah the honour of His name, Lift up a present and come in to His courts.
Mpeni Bwana utukufu unaostahili jina lake; leteni sadaka na mje katika nyua zake.
9 Bow yourselves to Jehovah, In the honour of holiness, Be afraid of His presence, all the earth.
Mwabuduni Bwana katika uzuri wa utakatifu wake; dunia yote na itetemeke mbele zake.
10 Say among nations, 'Jehovah hath reigned, Also — established is the world, unmoved, He judgeth the peoples in uprightness.'
Katikati ya mataifa semeni, “Bwana anatawala.” Ulimwengu ameuweka imara, hauwezi kusogezwa; atawahukumu watu kwa uadilifu.
11 The heavens joy, and the earth is joyful, The sea and its fulness roar.
Mbingu na zishangilie, nchi na ifurahi; bahari na ivume, na vyote vilivyomo ndani yake;
12 The field exulteth, and all that [is] in it, Then sing do all trees of the forest,
mashamba na yashangilie, pamoja na vyote vilivyomo ndani yake. Kisha miti yote ya msituni itaimba kwa furaha;
13 Before Jehovah, for He hath come, For He hath come to judge the earth. He judgeth the world in righteousness, And the peoples in His faithfulness!
itaimba mbele za Bwana kwa maana anakuja, anakuja kuihukumu dunia. Ataihukumu dunia kwa haki, na mataifa katika kweli yake.
