Isaya 12

1 Siku hiyo utasema, ''Nitakushukuru wewe, Yahwe. Japo ulikuwa na hasira na mimi, laana yako imeondoka mbali, na umenifariji mimi,

And in that day thou shalt say, Jehovah, I will praise thee; for though thou wast angry with me, thine anger is turned away, and thou hast 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.''

Behold, God is my salvation: I will trust, and not be afraid; for Jah, Jehovah, is my strength and song, and he is become my salvation.

3 Kwa furaha utachota maji kwenye kisima cha wokovu.

And with joy shall ye draw water out of the wells of salvation.

4 Siku hiyo utasema, ''Mshukuru Yahwe na ita jina lake; tangaza matendo yake miongoni mwa watu, tangaza jina lake limeinuliwa.

And in that day shall ye say, Give ye thanks to Jehovah, call upon his name, declare his deeds among the peoples, make mention that his name is exalted.

5 Mwiimbie Yahwe, maana ametenda matendo yaliotukuka; acha hili lijulikane dunia nzima.

Sing psalms of Jehovah, for he hath done excellent things: this is 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 shout, thou inhabitress of Zion; for great is the Holy One of Israel in the midst of thee.
