David's Psalm of praise.
1 I will extol thee, my God, O King;
And I will bless thy name for ever and ever.
Ee Mungu wangu, Mfalme, nitakutukuza, Nitalihimidi jina lako milele na milele.
2 Every day will I bless thee;
And I will praise thy name for ever and ever.
Kila siku nitakuhimidi, Nitalisifu jina lako milele na milele.
3 Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised;
And his greatness is unsearchable.
Bwana ndiye mkuu mwenye kusifiwa sana, Wala ukuu wake hautambulikani.
4 One generation shall praise thy works to another,
And shall declare thy mighty acts.
Kizazi kwa kizazi kitayasifu matendo yako, Kitayatangaza matendo yako makuu.
5 I will speak of the glorious honour of thy majesty,
And of thy wondrous works.
Nitaifikiri fahari ya utukufu wa adhama yako, Na matendo yako yote ya ajabu.
6 And men shall speak of the might of thy terrible acts:
And I will declare thy greatness.
Watu watayataja matendo yako ya kutisha, Nami nitausimulia ukuu wako.
7 They shall abundantly utter the memory of thy great goodness,
And shall sing of thy righteousness.
Watalihubiri kumbukumbu la wema wako mkuu. Wataiimba haki yako.
8 The LORD is gracious, and full of compassion;
Slow to anger, and of great mercy.
Bwana ana fadhili, ni mwingi wa huruma, Si mwepesi wa hasira, ni mwingi wa rehema,
9 The LORD is good to all:
And his tender mercies are over all his works.
Bwana ni mwema kwa watu wote, Na rehema zake zi juu ya kazi zake zote.
10 All thy works shall praise thee, O LORD;
And thy saints shall bless thee.
Ee Bwana, kazi zako zote zitakushukuru, Na wacha Mungu wako watakuhimidi.
11 They shall speak of the glory of thy kingdom,
And talk of thy power;
Wataunena utukufu wa ufalme wako, Na kuuhadithia uweza wako.
12 To make known to the sons of men his mighty acts,
And the glorious majesty of his kingdom.
Ili kuwajulisha watu matendo yake makuu, Na utukufu wa fahari ya ufalme wake.
13 Thy kingdom is an everlasting kingdom,
And thy dominion endureth throughout all generations.
Ufalme wako ni ufalme wa zamani zote, Na mamlaka yako ni ya vizazi vyote.
14 The LORD upholdeth all that fall,
And raiseth up all those that be bowed down.
Bwana huwategemeza wote waangukao, Huwainua wote walioinama chini.
15 The eyes of all wait upon thee;
And thou givest them their meat in due season.
Macho ya watu wote yakuelekea Wewe, Nawe huwapa chakula chao wakati wake.
16 Thou openest thine hand,
And satisfiest the desire of every living thing.
Waufumbua mkono wako, Wakishibisha kila kilicho hai matakwa yake.
17 The LORD is righteous in all his ways,
And holy in all his works.
Bwana ni mwenye haki katika njia zake zote, Na mwenye fadhili juu ya kazi zake zote.
18 The LORD is nigh unto all them that call upon him,
To all that call upon him in truth.
Bwana yu karibu na wote wamwitao, Wote wamwitao kwa uaminifu.
19 He will fulfil the desire of them that fear him:
He also will hear their cry, and will save them.
Atawafanyia wamchao matakwa yao, Naye atakisikia kilio chao na kuwaokoa.
20 The LORD preserveth all them that love him:
But all the wicked will he destroy.
Bwana huwahifadhi wote wampendao, Na wote wasio haki atawaangamiza.
21 My mouth shall speak the praise of the LORD:
And let all flesh bless his holy name for ever and ever.
Kinywa changu kitazinena sifa za Bwana; Wote wenye mwili na walihimidi jina lake takatifu milele na milele.
