Zaburi 145
1 Wimbo wa Sifa. Wa Daudi. Nitakutukuza wewe, Mungu wangu Mfalme, nitalisifu jina lako milele na milele.
A psalm of David. A song of praise. I will glorify you, my God and King! I will praise who you are forever and ever!
2 Kila siku nitakusifu na kulitukuza jina lako milele na milele.
I will praise you every day; I will praise your character forever and ever!
3 Bwana ni mkuu, anayestahili kusifiwa sana, ukuu wake haupimiki.
The Lord is great and deserves much praise! His greatness cannot be measured!
4 Kizazi kimoja kitasifia kazi zako kwa kizazi kingine, watasimulia matendo yako makuu.
Let every generation tell the next all that you do, sharing the stories of your amazing miracles!
5 Watasema juu ya utukufu wa fahari ya ukuu wako, nami nitatafakari juu ya kazi zako za ajabu.
They will speak of your majesty, your glorious splendor, and I will meditate on the wonderful things you have done.
6 Watasimulia uwezo wa kazi zako za kutisha, nami nitatangaza matendo yako makuu.
They will speak of the power of your awesome actions, and I will say how wonderful you are.
7 Wataadhimisha wema wako mwingi, na wataimba kwa shangwe juu ya haki yako.
They will explain to everyone how famous you are for your tremendous goodness, and joyfully celebrate how you always do what is right.
8 Bwana ni mwenye neema na mwingi wa huruma, si mwepesi wa hasira, bali ni mwingi wa upendo.
The Lord is merciful and gracious, not easily angered, and full of trustworthy love.
9 Bwana ni mwema kwa wote, ana huruma kwa vyote alivyovifanya.
The Lord is good to everyone, and he shows mercy to all his created beings.
10 Ee Bwana, vyote ulivyovifanya vitakusifu, watakatifu wako watakutukuza.
All the created beings will thank you, Lord, and all who faithfully follow you will praise you.
11 Watasimulia utukufu wa ufalme wako na kusema juu ya ukuu wako,
They will praise the glory of your kingdom, and talk about your power.
12 ili watu wote wajue matendo yako makuu na utukufu wa fahari ya ufalme wako.
They will explain to people your wonderful miracles, and the glorious splendor of your kingdom.
13 Ufalme wako ni ufalme wa milele, mamlaka yako hudumu vizazi vyote. Bwana ni mwaminifu kwa ahadi zake zote na mwenye upendo kwa vyote alivyovifanya.
Your kingdom never ends, and your rule continues for all generations. What the Lord promises can always be trusted; he is merciful in all he does.
14 Bwana huwategemeza wote waangukao, na huwainua wote waliolemewa na mizigo yao.
The Lord helps up all those who fall down; he lifts up all those who are bowed down.
15 Macho yao wote yanakutazama wewe, nawe huwapa chakula chao wakati wake.
All eyes are on you, waiting in hope, and you give food at just the right time.
16 Waufumbua mkono wako, watosheleza haja ya kila kitu kilicho hai.
You give generously and satisfy the needs of every living thing.
17 Bwana ni mwenye haki katika njia zake zote, na mwenye upendo kwa vyote alivyovifanya.
The Lord does right in everything—his actions are always trustworthy.
18 Bwana yu karibu na wote wamwitao, karibu na wote wamwitao kwa uaminifu.
The Lord is close to all who ask for his help, to all who ask in sincerity.
19 Huwatimizia wamchao matakwa yao, husikia kilio chao na kuwaokoa.
He satisfies the needs of those who follow him. He hears their cries for help and he saves them.
20 Bwana huwalinda wote wampendao, bali waovu wote atawaangamiza.
The Lord takes care of all those who love him, but he will destroy all those who are wicked.
21 Kinywa changu kitazinena sifa za Bwana. Kila kiumbe na kilisifu jina lake takatifu milele na milele.
I will speak in praise of the Lord, and may everyone honor his holy character, forever and ever.
