Mpeni Bwana, enyi wana wa Mungu, Mpeni Bwana utukufu na nguvu;
> Ascribe to Yahweh, you sons of the mighty, Ascribe to Yahweh glory and strength.
Mpeni Bwana utukufu wa jina lake; Mwabuduni Bwana kwa uzuri wa utakatifu.
Ascribe to Yahweh the glory due to his name. Worship Yahweh in holy array.
Sauti ya Bwana i juu ya maji; Mungu wa utukufu alipiga radi; Bwana yu juu ya maji mengi.
Yahweh's voice is on the waters. The God of glory thunders, even Yahweh on many waters.
Sauti ya Bwana ina nguvu; Sauti ya Bwana ina adhama;
Yahweh's voice is powerful. Yahweh's voice is full of majesty.
Sauti ya Bwana yaivunja mierezi; Naam, Bwana aivunja-vunja mierezi ya Lebanoni;
The voice of Yahweh breaks the cedars. Yes, Yahweh breaks in pieces the cedars of Lebanon.
Airusha-rusha kama ndama wa ng'ombe; Lebanoni na Sirioni kama mwana-nyati.
He makes them also to skip like a calf; Lebanon and Sirion like a young, wild ox.
Sauti ya Bwana yaipasua miali ya moto;
Yahweh's voice strikes with flashes of lightning.
Sauti ya Bwana yalitetemesha jangwa; Bwana alitetemesha jangwa la Kadeshi.
Yahweh's voice shakes the wilderness. Yahweh shakes the wilderness of Kadesh.
Sauti ya Bwana yawazalisha ayala, Na kuifichua misitu; Na ndani ya hekalu lake Wanasema wote, Utukufu.
Yahweh's voice makes the deer calve, And strips the forests bare. In his temple everything says, "Glory!"
Bwana aliketi juu ya Gharika; Naam, Bwana ameketi hali ya mfalme milele.
Yahweh sat enthroned at the Flood. Yes, Yahweh sits as King forever.
Bwana atawapa watu wake nguvu; Bwana atawabariki watu wake kwa amani.
Yahweh will give strength to his people. Yahweh will bless his people with peace.
