< Zaburi 92 >
1 Ni jambo jema kumshukuru Yahwe na kuliimbia sifa jina lako, Uliye Juu,
A psalm. A song; for the sabbath day. It is good to give thanks to the Lord, to sing praise to your name, O Most High,
2 kutangaza uaminifu wa agano lako wakati wa asubuhi na uaminifu wako kila usiku,
to declare your love in the morning, and your faithfulness in the night,
3 kwa kinubi cha nyuzi kumi na kwa tuni ya kinubi.
with voice and a ten-stringed harp, with music that throbs on the lyre.
4 Kwa kuwa wewe, Yahwe, matendo yako yamenifurahisha. Nitaimba kwa furaha kwa sababu ya matendo ya mikono yako.
For you make me glad by your deeds, Lord, at the work of your hands I will ring out my joy.
5 Ni jinsi gani matendo yako ni makuu, Yahwe! mawazo yako ni ya kina.
How great are your works, O Lord; how deep are your thoughts!
6 Mtu mpumbavu hawezi kuyajua, wala mjinga kuyaelewa haya:
The insensitive cannot know, nor can a fool understand,
7 Wasio haki watakapochipuka kama nyasi, na hata watendao uovu watakapo stawi, bado wataangamizwa kwenye uharibifu wa milele.
that, though the wicked flourish like grass, and evildoers all blossom, they will perish forever.
8 Lakini wewe, Yahwe, utatawala milele.
But you are exalted forever.
9 Hakika, watazame adui zako, Yahwe! Hakika, watazame adui zako. Wataangamia! Wale wote watendao maovu watatawanywa.
For see! Your enemies, Lord For see! Your enemies perish, all evildoers are scattered.
10 Wewe umeyainua mapembe yangu kama mapembe ya Nyati wa porini; nimepakwa mafuta safi.
But you lift me to honor, and anoint me afresh with oil.
11 Macho yangu yameona kuanguka kwa adui zangu; masikio yangu yamesikia maangamizi ya maadui zangu waovu.
My eyes will feast on my foes, and my ears will hear of the doom of the wicked.
12 Wenye haki watastawi kama mtende; watakua kama mwerezi wa Lebanoni.
The righteous will sprout like the palm, will grow like a cedar of Lebanon.
13 Wamepandwa katika nyumba ya Yahwe; wakistawi katika nyua za Mungu wetu.
In the house of the Lord are they planted, in the courts of our God they will sprout.
14 Wao huzaa matunda hata uzeeni; hukaa safi na wenye afya,
They will still bear fruit in old age, all sappy and fresh will they be
15 kutangaza kuwa Yahwe ni wa haki. Yeye ni mwamba wangu, na hakuna udhalimu ndani yake.
So they proclaim the Lord to be just, my rock, in whom is no wrong.
