Isaya 12

1 Katika siku ile utasema: “Nitakusifu wewe, Ee Bwana. Ingawa ulinikasirikia, hasira yako imegeukia mbali nawe umenifariji.

And in that day you shall say, I [will] bless you, O Lord; for you were angry with me, but you have turned aside your wrath, and have pitied me.

2 Hakika Mungu ni wokovu wangu; nitamtumaini wala sitaogopa. Bwana, Bwana, ni nguvu zangu na wimbo wangu; amekuwa wokovu wangu.”

Behold, my God is my Saviour; I will trust in him, and not be afraid: for the Lord is my glory and my praise, and is become my salvation.

3 Kwa furaha mtachota maji kutoka visima vya wokovu.

Draw you therefore water with joy out of the wells of salvation.

4 Katika siku hiyo mtasema: “Mshukuruni Bwana, mliitie jina lake; julisheni miongoni mwa mataifa yale aliyoyafanya, tangazeni kuwa jina lake limetukuka.

And in that day you shall say, sing to the Lord, call aloud upon his name, proclaim his glorious [deeds] amongst the Gentiles; make mention that his name is exalted.

5 Mwimbieni Bwana, kwa kuwa ametenda mambo makuu, hili na lijulikane duniani kote.

Sing praise to the name of the Lord; for he has done great [things]: declare this in all the earth.

6 Pazeni sauti mwimbe kwa furaha, watu wa Sayuni, kwa maana mkuu ni yeye Aliye Mtakatifu wa Israeli miongoni mwenu.”

Exalt and rejoice, you that dwell in Sion: for the Holy One of Israel is exalted in the midst of her.
