Kuasi kwake yule mwovu hunena moyoni mwake, Hakuna hofu ya Mungu mbele ya macho yake.
> An oracle is within my heart about the disobedience of the wicked: "There is no fear of God before his eyes."
Kwa maana hujipendekeza machoni pake Kuwa upotovu wake hautaonekana na kuchukiwa.
For he flatters himself in his own eyes, Too much to detect and hate his sin.
Maneno ya kinywa chake ni uovu na hila, Ameacha kuwa na akili na kutenda mema.
The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit. He has ceased to be wise and to do good.
Huwaza maovu kitandani pake, Hujiweka katika njia mbaya; ubaya hauchukii.
He plots iniquity on his bed. He sets himself in a way that is not good; He doesn't abhor evil.
Ee Bwana, fadhili zako zafika hata mbinguni, Uaminifu wako hata mawinguni.
Your loving kindness, Yahweh, is in the heavens. Your faithfulness reaches to the skies.
Haki yako ni kama milima ya Mungu, Hukumu zako ni vilindi vikuu, Ee Bwana, unawaokoa wanadamu na wanyama.
Your righteousness is like the mountains of God. Your judgments are like a great deep. Yahweh, you preserve man and animal.
Ee Mungu, jinsi zilivyo na thamani fadhili zako! Wanadamu huukimbilia uvuli wa mbawa zako.
How precious is your loving kindness, God! The children of men take refuge under the shadow of your wings.
Watashibishwa kwa unono wa nyumba yako, Nawe utawanywesha mto wa furaha zako.
They shall be abundantly satisfied with the abundance of your house. You will make them drink of the river of your pleasures.
Maana kwako Wewe iko chemchemi ya uzima, Katika nuru yako tutaona nuru.
For with you is the spring of life. In your light shall we see light.
Uwadumishie wakujuao fadhili zako, Na wanyofu wa moyo uaminifu wako.
Oh continue your loving kindness to those who know you, Your righteousness to the upright in heart.
Mguu wa kiburi usinikaribie, Wala mkono wa wasio haki usinifukuze.
Don't let the foot of pride come against me. Don't let the hand of the wicked drive me away.
Huko ndiko walikoanguka wafanyao maovu; Wameangushwa chini wasiweze kusimama.
There the workers of iniquity are fallen. They are thrust down, and shall not be able to rise.
