Haleluya. Heri mtu yule amchaye Bwana, Apendezwaye sana na maagizo yake.
Praise Yah! Blessed is the man who fears Yahweh, Who delights greatly in his commandments.
Wazao wake watakuwa hodari duniani; Kizazi cha wenye adili kitabarikiwa.
His seed will be mighty in the land. The generation of the upright will be blessed.
Nyumbani mwake mna utajiri na mali, Na haki yake yakaa milele.
Wealth and riches are in his house. His righteousness endures forever.
Nuru huwazukia wenye adili gizani; Ana fadhili na huruma na haki.
Light dawns in the darkness for the upright, Gracious, merciful, and righteous.
Heri atendaye fadhili na kukopesha; Atengenezaye mambo yake kwa haki.
It is well with the man who deals graciously and lends. He will maintain his cause in judgment.
Kwa maana hataondoshwa kamwe; Mwenye haki atakumbukwa milele.
For he will never be shaken. The righteous will be remembered forever.
Hataogopa habari mbaya; Moyo wake u imara ukimtumaini Bwana.
He will not be afraid of evil news. His heart is steadfast, trusting in Yahweh.
Moyo wake umethibitika hataogopa, Hata awaone watesi wake wameshindwa.
His heart is established. He will not be afraid in the end when he sees his adversaries.
Amekirimu, na kuwapa maskini, Haki yake yakaa milele, Pembe yake itatukuzwa kwa utukufu.
He has dispersed, he has given to the poor. His righteousness endures forever. His horn will be exalted with honor.
Asiye haki ataona na kusikitika, 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.
