< Zaburi 92 >
1 Zaburi. Wimbo wa siku ya Sabato. Ni vyema kumshukuru Bwana na kuliimbia jina lako, Ee Uliye Juu Sana,
A psalm. A song; for the sabbath day. It is good to give thanks to the Lord, to sing praise to your name, O Most High,
2 kuutangaza upendo wako asubuhi, na uaminifu wako wakati wa usiku,
to declare your love in the morning, and your faithfulness in the night,
3 kwa zeze yenye nyuzi kumi na kwa sauti ya kinubi.
with voice and a ten-stringed harp, with music that throbs on the lyre.
4 Ee Bwana, kwa kuwa matendo yako yamenifurahisha, nitaziimba kwa shangwe kazi za mikono yako.
For you make me glad by your deeds, Lord, at the work of your hands I will ring out my joy.
5 Ee Bwana, tazama jinsi yalivyo makuu matendo yako, tazama jinsi yalivyo ya kina mawazo yako!
How great are your works, O Lord; how deep are your thoughts!
6 Mjinga hafahamu, mpumbavu haelewi,
The insensitive cannot know, nor can a fool understand,
7 ingawa waovu huchipua kama majani na wote watendao mabaya wanastawi, wataangamizwa milele.
that, though the wicked flourish like grass, and evildoers all blossom, they will perish forever.
8 Bali wewe, Ee Bwana, utatukuzwa milele.
But you are exalted forever.
9 Ee Bwana, hakika adui zako, hakika adui zako wataangamia. Wote watendao mabaya watatawanyika.
For see! Your enemies, Lord For see! Your enemies perish, all evildoers are scattered.
10 Umeitukuza pembe yangu kama ile ya nyati dume, mafuta mazuri yamemiminwa juu yangu.
But you lift me to honor, and anoint me afresh with oil.
11 Macho yangu yamewaona adui zangu wakishindwa, masikio yangu yamesikia maangamizi ya adui zangu waovu.
My eyes will feast on my foes, and my ears will hear of the doom of the wicked.
12 Wenye haki watastawi kama mtende, watakuwa kama mwerezi wa Lebanoni,
The righteous will sprout like the palm, will grow like a cedar of Lebanon.
13 waliopandwa katika nyumba ya Bwana, watastawi katika nyua za Mungu wetu.
In the house of the Lord are they planted, in the courts of our God they will sprout.
14 Wakati wa uzee watakuwa bado wanazaa matunda, watakuwa wabichi tena wamejaa nguvu,
They will still bear fruit in old age, all sappy and fresh will they be
15 wakitangaza, “Bwana ni mkamilifu; yeye ni Mwamba wangu, na ndani yake hamna uovu.”
So they proclaim the Lord to be just, my rock, in whom is no wrong.
