Zaburi 85
1 Yahwe, wewe umeonesha fadhilia kwenye nchi yako; umeurejesha ustawi wa Yakobo.
To the chief Musician, A Psalm for the sons of Korah. LORD, thou hast been favorable to thy land: thou hast brought back the captivity of Jacob.
2 Umesamehe dhambi ya watu wako; umezisitiri dhambi zao zote. (Selah)
Thou hast forgiven the iniquity of thy people, thou hast covered all their sin. (Selah)
3 Umeondoa ghadhabu yako yote; umeiacha hasira yako kali.
Thou hast taken away all thy wrath; thou hast turned [thyself] from the fierceness of thy anger.
4 Uturejeshe sisi, Ee Mungu wa wokovu wetu, na uikomeshe chuki yako juu yetu.
Turn us, O God of our salvation, and cause thy anger towards us to cease.
5 Je! Utaendelea kuwa na hasira juu yetu milele? utadumisha hasira kizazi chote kijacho?
Wilt thou be angry with us for ever? wilt thou draw out thy anger to all generations?
6 Je, hautatuhuisha tena? Kisha watu wako watafurahia katika wewe.
Wilt thou not revive us again: that thy people may rejoice in thee?
7 Utuoneshe sisi uaminifu wa agano lako, Yahwe, utupe sisi wokovu wako.
Show us thy mercy, O LORD, and grant us thy salvation.
8 Nitasikiliza yale Yahwe Mungu asemayo, maana yeye atafanya amani pamoja na watu wake, wafuasi wake waminifu. Lakini lazima wasirudi tena katika njia za kipumbavu.
I will hear what God the LORD will speak: for he will speak peace to his people, and to his saints: but let them not turn again to folly.
9 Hakika wokovu wake u karibu na wale wanao mwabudu yeye; kisha utukufu utabaki katika nchi yetu.
Surely his salvation [is] nigh them that fear him; that glory may dwell in our land.
10 Uaminifu wa agano na uaminifu vimekutana pamoja; haki na amani vimebusiana.
Mercy and truth are met together; righteousness and peace have kissed [each other].
11 Uaminifu unatoa chemchem kutoka ardhini, na haki hutazama chini kutoka mawinguni.
Truth shall spring out of the earth; and righteousness shall look down from heaven.
12 Ndiyo, Yahwe atatoa baraka zake njema, na nchi itatoa mazao yake.
Yes, the LORD will give [that which is] good; and our land shall yield her increase.
13 Haki itaenda mbele zake na kufanya njia kwa ajili ya nyayo zake.
Righteousness shall go before him; and shall set [us] in the way of his steps.
