1
Haleluya. Ee nafsi yangu, umsifu Bwana.
Hallelujah! Praise the LORD, O my soul.
2
Nitamsifu Bwana muda ninaoishi, Nitamwimbia Mungu wangu ningali ni hai.
I will praise the LORD all my life; I will sing praises to my God while I have my being.
3
Msiwatumainie wakuu, Wala binadamu ambaye hakuna wokovu kwake.
Put not your trust in princes, in mortal man, who cannot save.
4
Pumzi yake hutoka, huurudia udongo wake, Siku hiyo mawazo yake yapotea.
When his spirit departs, he returns to the ground; on that very day his plans perish.
5
Heri ambaye Mungu wa Yakobo ni msaada wake, Na tumaini lake ni kwa Bwana, Mungu wake,
Blessed is he whose help is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the LORD his God,
6
Aliyezifanya mbingu na nchi, Bahari na vitu vyote vilivyomo. Huishika kweli milele,
the Maker of heaven and earth, the sea, and everything in them. He remains faithful forever.
7
Huwafanyia hukumu walioonewa, Huwapa wenye njaa chakula; Bwana hufungua waliofungwa;
He executes justice for the oppressed and gives food to the hungry. The LORD sets the prisoners free,
8
Bwana huwafumbua macho waliopofuka; Bwana huwainua walioinama; Bwana huwapenda wenye haki;
the LORD opens the eyes of the blind, the LORD lifts those who are weighed down, the LORD loves the righteous.
9
Bwana huwahifadhi wageni; Huwategemeza yatima na mjane; Bali njia ya wasio haki huipotosha.
The LORD protects foreigners; He sustains the fatherless and the widow, but the ways of the wicked He frustrates.
10
Bwana atamiliki milele, Mungu wako, Ee Sayuni, kizazi hata kizazi. Haleluya.
The LORD reigns forever, your God, O Zion, for all generations. Hallelujah!
