Zaburi 101

1 Nitaimba uaminifu wa agano lako na hukumu; kwako, Ee Yahwe, Nitakuimbia sifa.

A Psalm of David. I will sing of mercy and judgment: unto thee, O LORD, will I sing.

2 Nitatembea katika njia ya uadilifu. Oh, ni lini utakuja kwangu? Nitatembea kwa uadilifu ndani ya nyumba yangu.

I will behave myself wisely in a perfect way. O when wilt thou come unto me? I will walk within my house with a perfect heart.

3 Sitaweka matendo maovu mbele ya macho yangu; ninachukia uovu usio na maana; hauta shikamana nami.

I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; [it] shall not cleave to me.

4 Watu waliopotoka wataniacha mimi; mimi sichangamani na uovu.

A froward heart shall depart from me: I will not know a wicked [person].

5 Nitamwangamiza yeyote amsengenyaye jirani yake kwa siri. Sitamvumilia yeyote mwenye kiburi.

Whoso privily slandereth his neighbour, him will I cut off: him that hath an high look and a proud heart will not I suffer.

6 Nitawachagua walio waaminifu katika nchi wakae upande wangu. Wale watembeao katika njia ya uhadilifu watanitumikia.

Mine eyes [shall be] upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me: he that walketh in a perfect way, he shall serve me.

7 Watu wadanganyifu hawatabaki ndani ya nyumba yangu; waongo hawatakaribishwa mbele ya macho yangu.

He that worketh deceit shall not dwell within my house: he that telleth lies shall not tarry in my sight.

8 Asubuhi hata asubuhi nitawaangamiza waovu wote kutoka nchini; nitawaondoa watendao maovu wote katika mji wa Yahwe.

I will early destroy all the wicked of the land; that I may cut off all wicked doers from the city of the LORD.
