< Zaburi 92 >

1 Zaburi. Wimbo wa siku ya Sabato. Ni vyema kumshukuru Bwana na kuliimbia jina lako, Ee Uliye Juu Sana,
“A psalm for the Sabbath-day.” It is a good thing to give thanks to the LORD, And to sing praises to thy name, O Most High!
2 kuutangaza upendo wako asubuhi, na uaminifu wako wakati wa usiku,
To show forth thy loving-kindness in the morning, And thy faithfulness every night,
3 kwa zeze yenye nyuzi kumi na kwa sauti ya kinubi.
Upon the ten-stringed instrument and the lute, Upon the harp with a solemn sound.
4 Ee Bwana, kwa kuwa matendo yako yamenifurahisha, nitaziimba kwa shangwe kazi za mikono yako.
For thou, LORD, hast made me glad by thy doings; In the works of thy hands I greatly rejoice!
5 Ee Bwana, tazama jinsi yalivyo makuu matendo yako, tazama jinsi yalivyo ya kina mawazo yako!
How great are thy works, O LORD! How deep thy purposes!
6 Mjinga hafahamu, mpumbavu haelewi,
But the unwise man knoweth not this, And the fool understandeth it not.
7 ingawa waovu huchipua kama majani na wote watendao mabaya wanastawi, wataangamizwa milele.
When the wicked spring up like grass, And all who practise iniquity flourish, It is but to be destroyed for ever!
8 Bali wewe, Ee Bwana, utatukuzwa milele.
Thou, O LORD! art for ever exalted!
9 Ee Bwana, hakika adui zako, hakika adui zako wataangamia. Wote watendao mabaya watatawanyika.
For, lo! thine enemies, O LORD! For, lo! thine enemies perish, And dispersed are all who do iniquity!
10 Umeitukuza pembe yangu kama ile ya nyati dume, mafuta mazuri yamemiminwa juu yangu.
But my horn thou exaltest like the buffalo's; I am anointed with fresh oil.
11 Macho yangu yamewaona adui zangu wakishindwa, masikio yangu yamesikia maangamizi ya adui zangu waovu.
Mine eye hath gazed with joy upon mine enemies; Mine ears have heard with joy of my wicked adversaries.
12 Wenye haki watastawi kama mtende, watakuwa kama mwerezi wa Lebanoni,
The righteous shall flourish like the palm-tree; They shall grow up like the cedars of Lebanon;
13 waliopandwa katika nyumba ya Bwana, watastawi katika nyua za Mungu wetu.
Planted in the house of the LORD, They shall flourish in the courts of our God.
14 Wakati wa uzee watakuwa bado wanazaa matunda, watakuwa wabichi tena wamejaa nguvu,
Even in old age they bring forth fruit; They are green, and full of sap;
15 wakitangaza, “Bwana ni mkamilifu; yeye ni Mwamba wangu, na ndani yake hamna uovu.”
To show that the LORD, my rock, is upright, That there is no unrighteousness in him.
