Zaburi 135
1 Msifuni Bwana. Lisifuni jina la Bwana, msifuni, enyi watumishi wa Bwana,
Alleluia. Praise the name of the Lord. You servants, praise the Lord.
2 ninyi ambao mnatumika ndani ya nyumba ya Bwana, katika nyua za nyumba ya Mungu wetu.
You who stand in the house of the Lord, in the courts of the house of our God:
3 Msifuni Bwana, kwa kuwa Bwana ni mwema, liimbieni sifa jina lake, kwa maana hilo lapendeza.
praise the Lord, for the Lord is good. Sing psalms to his name, for it is sweet.
4 Kwa maana Bwana amemchagua Yakobo kuwa wake mwenyewe, Israeli kuwa mali yake ya thamani.
For the Lord has chosen Jacob for himself, Israel for his own possession.
5 Ninajua ya kuwa Bwana ni mkuu, kwamba Bwana wetu ni mkuu kuliko miungu yote.
For I have known that the Lord is great, and our God is before all gods.
6 Bwana hufanya lolote apendalo, mbinguni na duniani, katika bahari na vilindi vyake vyote.
All things whatsoever that he willed, the Lord did: in heaven, on earth, in the sea, and in all the deep places.
7 Hufanya mawingu kupanda kutoka miisho ya dunia; hupeleka umeme wa radi pamoja na mvua na huleta upepo kutoka ghala zake.
He leads clouds from the ends of the earth. He has created lightnings in the rain. He has produced winds from his storehouses.
8 Alimuua mzaliwa wa kwanza wa Misri, mzaliwa wa kwanza wa wanadamu na wanyama.
He struck the first-born of Egypt, from man even to cattle.
9 Alipeleka ishara zake na maajabu katikati yako, ee Misri, dhidi ya Farao na watumishi wake wote.
He sent signs and wonders into your midst, O Egypt: upon Pharaoh and upon all his servants.
10 Aliyapiga mataifa mengi, na akaua wafalme wenye nguvu:
He has struck many nations, and he has slaughtered strong kings:
11 Mfalme Sihoni na Waamori, Ogu mfalme wa Bashani na wafalme wote wa Kanaani:
Sihon, king of the Amorites, and Og, king of Bashan, and all the kingdoms of Canaan.
12 akatoa nchi yao kuwa urithi, urithi kwa watu wake Israeli.
And he gave their land as an inheritance, as an inheritance for his people Israel.
13 Ee Bwana, jina lako ladumu milele, kumbukumbu za fahari zako, Ee Bwana, kwa vizazi vyote.
Your name, O Lord, is in eternity. Your memorial, O Lord, is from generation to generation.
14 Maana Bwana atawathibitisha watu wake, na kuwahurumia watumishi wake.
For the Lord will judge his people, and he will be petitioned by his servants.
15 Sanamu za mataifa ni fedha na dhahabu, zilizotengenezwa kwa mikono ya wanadamu.
The idols of the Gentiles are silver and gold, the works of the hands of men.
16 Zina vinywa, lakini haziwezi kusema, zina macho, lakini haziwezi kuona;
They have a mouth, and do not speak. They have eyes, and do not see.
17 zina masikio, lakini haziwezi kusikia, wala hakuna pumzi katika vinywa vyao.
They have ears, and do not hear. For neither is there any breath in their mouths.
18 Wale wanaozitengeneza watafanana nazo, vivyo hivyo wale wote wanaozitumainia.
Let those who make them become like them, along with all who trust in them.
19 Ee nyumba ya Israeli, msifuni Bwana; ee nyumba ya Aroni, msifuni Bwana;
Bless the Lord, O house of Israel. Bless the Lord, O house of Aaron.
20 ee nyumba ya Lawi, msifuni Bwana; ninyi mnaomcha, msifuni Bwana.
Bless the Lord, O house of Levi. You who fear the Lord, bless the Lord.
21 Msifuni Bwana kutoka Sayuni, msifuni yeye aishiye Yerusalemu. Msifuni Bwana.
The Lord is blessed from Zion, by those who dwell in Jerusalem.
