< Isaya 12 >
1 Siku hiyo utasema, ''Nitakushukuru wewe, Yahwe. Japo ulikuwa na hasira na mimi, laana yako imeondoka mbali, na umenifariji mimi,
In that day you will say: “O LORD, I will praise You. Although You were angry with me, Your anger has turned away, and You have comforted me.
2 Ona Bwana ni wokovu wangu; nitamwamini na sitakuwa na hofu, kwa Yahwe, ndio, Yahwe ni nguvu yangu na wimbo wangu. Amekuwa wokovu wangu.''
Surely God is my salvation; I will trust and not be afraid. For the LORD GOD is my strength and my song, and He also has become my salvation.”
3 Kwa furaha utachota maji kwenye kisima cha wokovu.
With joy you will draw water from the springs of salvation,
4 Siku hiyo utasema, ''Mshukuru Yahwe na ita jina lake; tangaza matendo yake miongoni mwa watu, tangaza jina lake limeinuliwa.
and on that day you will say: “Give praise to the LORD; proclaim His name! Make His works known among the peoples; declare that His name is exalted.
5 Mwiimbie Yahwe, maana ametenda matendo yaliotukuka; acha hili lijulikane dunia nzima.
Sing to the LORD, for He has done glorious things. Let this be known in all the earth.
6 Lia kwa nguvu na piga kelele kwa furaha, enyi wakazi wa Sayuni, maana katikati yenu ni mtakatifu wa Israeli.
Cry out and sing, O citizen of Zion, for great among you is the Holy One of Israel.”
