< Isaya 12 >
1 Katika siku ile utasema: “Nitakusifu wewe, Ee Bwana. Ingawa ulinikasirikia, hasira yako imegeukia mbali nawe umenifariji.
In that day you will say, "I will give thanks to you, the LORD; for you were angry with me, but your anger has turned away and you comfort me.
2 Hakika Mungu ni wokovu wangu; nitamtumaini wala sitaogopa. Bwana, Bwana, ni nguvu zangu na wimbo wangu; amekuwa wokovu wangu.”
Look, in the God of my salvation I will trust, and will not be afraid. For the LORD is my strength and my and song, and he has become my salvation."
3 Kwa furaha mtachota maji kutoka visima vya wokovu.
Therefore with joy you will draw water 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.
In that day you will say, "Give thanks to the LORD. Call on his name. Declare his doings among the peoples. Proclaim that his name is exalted.
5 Mwimbieni Bwana, kwa kuwa ametenda mambo makuu, hili na lijulikane duniani kote.
Sing to the LORD, for he has done excellent things. Let this be known in all the earth.
6 Pazeni sauti mwimbe kwa furaha, watu wa Sayuni, kwa maana mkuu ni yeye Aliye Mtakatifu wa Israeli miongoni mwenu.”
Cry aloud and shout, you inhabitant of Zion; for the Holy One of Israel is great in the midst of you."
