< Zaburi 112 >
1 Msifuni Yahwe. Amebarikiwa mtu yule anaye mtii Yahwe, apendezwaye sana na amri zake.
Praise the LORD! Blessed is the man who fears the LORD, who delights greatly in his commandments.
2 Kizazi chake kitakuwa ni chenye nguvu duniani; kizazi cha mcha Mungu kitabarikiwa.
His offspring will be mighty in the land. The generation of the upright will be blessed.
3 Nyumbani mwake mna utajiri na mali; na haki yake itadumu milele.
Wealth and riches are in his house. His righteousness endures forever.
4 Nuru huangazia gizani kwa ajili ya mtu mcha Mungu; yeye ni wa fadhili, huruma, na haki.
Light dawns in the darkness for the upright, gracious, merciful, and righteous.
5 Heri atendaye fadhili na kukopesha, afanyaye mambo yake kwa uaminifu.
It is well with the man who deals graciously and lends. He will maintain his cause in judgment.
6 Kwa maana hataondoshwa kamwe; mwenye haki atakumbukwa milele.
For he will never be shaken. The righteous will be remembered forever.
7 Haogopi habari mbaya; ni jasiri, akimtumainia Yahwe.
He will not be afraid of evil news. His heart is steadfast, trusting in the LORD.
8 Moyo wake ni mtulivu, hana woga, mpaka aonapo ushindi dhidi ya watesi wake.
His heart is established. He will not be afraid in the end when he sees his adversaries.
9 Huwapa masikini kwa ukarimu; haki yake yadumu milele; atainuliwa kwa heshima.
He has dispersed, he has given to the poor. His righteousness endures forever. His horn will be exalted with honor.
10 Mtu mwovu ataona haya na kukasirika; atasaga meno yake na kuyeyuka; tamaa ya wasio haki itapotea.
The wicked will see it, and be grieved. He shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away. The desire of the wicked will perish.
