Zaburi 75

1 Kwa mwimbishaji. Mtindo wa “Usiharibu!” Zaburi ya Asafu. Wimbo. Ee Mungu, tunakushukuru, tunakushukuru wewe, kwa kuwa jina lako li karibu; watu husimulia matendo yako ya ajabu.

For the music director. A psalm of Asaph. According to “Do Not Destroy.” A song. We thank you, God, we thank you because you are close beside us. People tell about the wonderful things you have done.

2 Unasema, “Ninachagua wakati maalum; ni mimi nihukumuye kwa haki.

God says, “When the time I have decided comes, I will judge fairly.

3 Wakati dunia na watu wake wote inapotetemeka, ni mimi ninayezishikilia nguzo zake imara.

When the earth quakes, and all its inhabitants tremble, I am the one who holds it steady. (Selah)

4 Kwa wale wenye majivuno ninasema, ‘Msijisifu tena,’ kwa wale waovu, ‘Msiinue pembe zenu.

To those who boast I say, ‘Don't boast!’ I tell the wicked, ‘Don't be proud!’

5 Msiinue pembe zenu dhidi ya mbingu; msiseme kwa shingo zilizonyooshwa.’”

No, don't be proud and arrogant, insulting heaven.”

6 Hakuna yeyote atokaye mashariki wala magharibi au kutoka jangwani awezaye kumkweza mwanadamu.

For no one, from the east to the west, or from the wilderness, should think so highly of themselves.

7 Bali Mungu ndiye ahukumuye: Humshusha huyu na kumkweza mwingine.

God is the one who decides—who he will bring down and who he will lift up.

8 Mkononi mwa Bwana kuna kikombe kilichojaa mvinyo unaotoka povu uliochanganywa na vikolezo; huumimina, nao waovu wote wa dunia hunywa mpaka tone la mwisho.

For the Lord has a cup in his hand, full of bubbling wine mixed with spices. He pours it out, and all the wicked drink it deeply, down to the last drop.

9 Bali mimi, nitatangaza hili milele; nitaimba sifa kwa Mungu wa Yakobo.

But I will speak about you forever. I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.

10 Nitazikatilia mbali pembe za waovu wote, bali pembe za wenye haki zitainuliwa juu.

For God says, “I will break the power of the wicked; but I will give my support to those who do what is good.”
