Zaburi 65
1 Kwako wewe, Mungu katika Sayuni, sifa zetu za kungoja; viapo vyetu vitaletwa kwako.
To the Overseer. — A Psalm of David. A Song. To Thee, silence — praise, O God, [is] in Zion, And to Thee is a vow completed.
2 Wewe usikiaye maombi yetu, miili yote itakuja kwako.
Hearer of prayer, to Thee all flesh cometh.
3 Maovu yanatutawala sisi; kama yalivyo makosa yetu, wewe utayasamehe.
Matters of iniquities were mightier than I, Our transgressions — Thou dost cover them.
4 Amebarikiwa mtu yule ambaye wewe huchagua kumsogeza karibu yako ili kwamba aishi hekaluni mwako. Tutatoshelezwa kwa uzuri wa nyumba yako, hekalu lako takatifu.
O the happiness of [him whom] Thou choosest, And drawest near, he inhabiteth Thy courts, We are satisfied with the goodness of Thy house, Thy holy temple.
5 Katika haki wewe utatujibu sisi kwa kufanya mambo ya ajabu, Mungu wa wokovu wetu; wewe ambaye ni ujasiri wa mwisho wote wa nchi na wa wale walio mbali toka pande za bahari.
By fearful things in righteousness Thou answerest us, O God of our salvation, The confidence of all far off ends of earth and sea.
6 Kwa manaa ni wewe ndiye uliyeifanya milima imara, wewe ambaye umefungwa mkanda wa uweza.
Establishing mountains by His power, He hath been girded with might,
7 Ni wewe unyamazishaye ngurumo za baharini; ngurumo za mawimbi yake, na vurugu za watu.
Restraining the noise of seas, the noise of their billows, And the multitude of the peoples.
8 Wale wanaoishi sehemu za mwisho kabisa wa nchi wanaogopa ushahidi wa matendo yako; wewe hufanya mashariki na magharibi kushangilia.
And the inhabitants of the uttermost parts From Thy signs are afraid, The outgoings of morning and evening Thou causest to sing.
9 Wewe huja kuisaidia nchi; unainyeshea inchi; wewe unaiimarisha nchi vizuri; mto wa Mungu umejaa maji; wewe humpa mwanadamu nafaka unapokuwa umekwisha iandaa nchi.
Thou hast inspected the earth, and waterest it, Thou makest it very rich, the rivulet of God [is] full of water, Thou preparest their corn, When thus Thou dost prepare it,
10 Wewe huyajaza matuta maji ya kutosha; wapasawazisha palipoinuka; wailainisha nchi kwa manyunyu ya mvua; waibariki mimea kati yao.
Its ridges have been filled, Deepened hath been its furrow, With showers Thou dost soften it, Its springing up Thou blessest.
11 Umeuvika mwaka taji ya wema wako; mvumo wa mapito yako hudondosha unono katika nchi.
Thou hast crowned the year of Thy goodness, And Thy paths drop fatness.
12 Majani ya nyikani hudondosha umande, na vilima vimevikwa furaha.
Drop do the pastures of a wilderness, And joy of the heights Thou girdest on.
13 Malisho yamevishwa mifugo; mabonde pia yamefunikwa na nafaka; yanapiga kelele za shangwe, nayo yanaimba.
Clothed have lambs the flock, And valleys are covered with corn, They shout — yea, they sing!
