1
Mpigie Mungu kelele za shangwe, nchi yote,
For the choirmaster. A song. A Psalm. Make a joyful noise to God, all the earth!
2
Imbeni utukufu wa jina lake, Tukuzeni sifa zake.
Sing the glory of His name; make His praise glorious.
3
Mwambieni Mungu, Matendo yako yatisha kama nini! Kwa ajili ya wingi wa nguvu zako, Adui zako watakuja kunyenyekea mbele zako.
Say to God, “How awesome are Your deeds! So great is Your power that Your enemies cower before You.
4
Nchi yote itakusujudia na kukuimbia, Naam, italiimbia jina lako.
All the earth bows down to You; they sing praise to You; they sing praise to Your name.” Selah
5
Njoni yatazameni matendo ya Mungu; Hutisha kwa mambo awatendayo wanadamu;
Come and see the works of God; how awesome are His deeds toward mankind.
6
Aligeuza bahari ikawa nchi kavu; Katika mto walivuka kwa miguu; Huko ndiko mlikomfurahia.
He turned the sea into dry land; they passed through the waters on foot; there we rejoiced in Him.
7
Atawala kwa uweza wake milele; Macho yake yanaangalia mataifa; Waasio wasijitukuze nafsi zao.
He rules forever by His power; His eyes watch the nations. Do not let the rebellious exalt themselves. Selah
8
Enyi mataifa, mtukuzeni Mungu wetu, Itangazeni sauti ya sifa zake;
Bless our God, O peoples; let the sound of His praise be heard.
9
Aliyeiweka nafsi yetu katika uhai, Wala hakuuacha mguu wetu usogezwe.
He preserves our lives and keeps our feet from slipping.
10
Kwa maana umetupima, Ee Mungu, Umetujaribu inavyojaribiwa fedha.
For You, O God, have tested us; You have refined us like silver.
11
Ulituingiza ndani ya wavu, Na kuweka viunoni mwetu mzigo uliotulemea.
You led us into the net; You laid burdens on our backs.
12
Uliwapandisha watu Juu ya vichwa vyetu. Tulipita motoni na majini; Ukatutoa na kutuleta kunako wingi.
You let men ride over our heads; we went through fire and water, but You brought us into abundance.
13
Nitaingia nyumbani mwako na kafara; Nitaondoa kwako nadhiri zangu;
I will enter Your house with burnt offerings; I will fulfill my vows to You—
14
Ambazo midomo yangu ilizinena; Kinywa changu kikazisema nilipokuwa taabuni.
the vows that my lips promised and my mouth spoke in my distress.
15
Kafara za vinono nitakutolea, Pamoja na fukizo la kondoo waume, Nitatoa ng'ombe pamoja na mbuzi.
I will offer You fatlings as burnt offerings, with the fragrant smoke of rams; I will offer bulls and goats. Selah
16
Njoni, sikieni, ninyi nyote mnaomcha Mungu, Nami nitayatangaza aliyonitendea roho yangu.
Come and listen, all you who fear God, and I will declare what He has done for me.
17
Nalimwita kwa kinywa changu, Na sifa kuu zilikuwa chini ya ulimi wangu.
I cried out to Him with my mouth and praised Him with my tongue.
18
Kama ningaliwaza maovu moyoni mwangu, Bwana asingesikia.
If I had cherished iniquity in my heart, the Lord would not have listened.
19
Hakika Mungu amesikia; Ameisikiliza sauti ya maombi yangu.
But God has surely heard; He has attended to the sound of my prayer.
20
Na ahimidiwe Mungu asiyeyakataa maombi yangu, Wala kuniondolea fadhili zake.
Blessed be God, who has not rejected my prayer or withheld from me His loving devotion!
