1 Praise ye the LORD. I will praise the LORD with my whole heart,
In the assembly of the upright, and in the congregation.
Haleluya Nitamshukuru Bwana kwa moyo wangu wote, Barazani pa wanyofu wa moyo na katika mkutano.
2 The works of the LORD are great,
Sought out of all them that have pleasure therein.
Matendo ya Bwana ni makuu, Yafikiriwa sana na wapendezwao nayo.
3 His work is honourable and glorious:
And his righteousness endureth for ever.
Kazi yake ni heshima na adhama, Na haki yake yakaa milele.
4 He hath made his wonderful works to be remembered:
The LORD is gracious and full of compassion.
Amefanya ukumbusho wa matendo yake ya ajabu; Bwana ni mwenye fadhili na rehema.
5 He hath given meat unto them that fear him:
He will ever be mindful of his covenant.
Amewapa wamchao chakula; Atalikumbuka agano lake milele.
6 He hath shewed his people the power of his works,
That he may give them the heritage of the heathen.
Amewajulisha watu wake uwezo wa matendo yake, Kwa kuwapa urithi wa mataifa.
7 The works of his hands are verity and judgment;
All his commandments are sure.
Matendo ya mikono yake ni kweli na hukumu, Maagizo yake yote ni amini,
8 They stand fast for ever and ever,
And are done in truth and uprightness.
Yamethibitika milele na milele, Yamefanywa katika kweli na adili.
9 He sent redemption unto his people:
He hath commanded his covenant for ever:
Holy and reverend is his name.
Amewapelekea watu wake ukombozi, Ameamuru agano lake liwe la milele, Jina lake ni takatifu la kuogopwa.
10 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom:
A good understanding have all they that do his commandments:
His praise endureth for ever.
Kumcha Bwana ndio mwanzo wa hekima, Wote wafanyao hayo wana akili njema, Sifa zake zakaa milele.
