And brought out Israel from among them; for his loving kindness endures forever;

12 Kwa mkono wenye nguvu ulionyooshwa,

With a strong hand, and with an outstretched arm; for his loving kindness endures forever:

13 Kwake yeye aliyeigawa Bahari ya Shamu,

To him who divided the Red Sea apart; for his loving kindness endures forever;

14 Na kuwapitisha Israeli katikati yake,

And made Israel to pass through its midst; for his loving kindness endures forever;

15 Lakini alimfagia Farao na jeshi lake katika Bahari ya Shamu,

But shook off Pharaoh and his army in the Red Sea; for his loving kindness endures forever:

16 Kwake yeye aliyewaongoza watu wake katika jangwa,

To him who led his people through the wilderness; for his loving kindness endures forever:

17 Ambaye aliwapiga wafalme wenye nguvu,

To him who struck great kings; for his loving kindness endures forever;

18 Naye aliwaua wafalme wenye nguvu,

And killed mighty kings; for his loving kindness endures forever:

Sihon king of the Amorites; for his loving kindness endures forever;

20 Ogu mfalme wa Bashani,

Og king of Bashan; for his loving kindness endures forever;

21 Akatoa nchi yao kuwa urithi,

And gave their land as an inheritance; for his loving kindness endures forever;

22 Urithi kwa Israeli mtumishi wake,

Even a heritage to Israel his servant; for his loving kindness endures forever:

23 Aliyetukumbuka katika unyonge wetu,

Who remembered us in our low estate; for his loving kindness endures forever;

24 Alituweka huru toka adui zetu,

And has delivered us from our adversaries; for his loving kindness endures forever:

25 Ambaye humpa chakula kila kiumbe.

Who gives food to every creature; for his loving kindness endures forever.

26 Mshukuruni Mungu wa mbinguni,

Oh give thanks to the God of heaven; for his loving kindness endures forever.
