Zaburi 147:3

1Haleluya.

Ese ukuntu ari vyiza guhimbaza Imana yacu,

ese ukuntu bihimbaye kandi bibereye kuyihimbaza!

2Uhoraho yubaka Yerusalemu;

yegeranya aba Isirayeli bari barashwiragiye.

3Akiza abafise imitima imenetse

agapfuka inguma zabo.

4Aharura igitigiri c’inyenyeri

agahamagara imwimwe yose mw’izina.

5Umwami wacu arahambaye kandi ni umuhizi mu nkomezi:

ugutahura kwiwe ntikugira akarimbi.

6Uhoraho ashigikira abaciye bugufi

agacisha bugufi abanyakibi akabashitsa hasi.

7Nimuririmbire Uhoraho indirimbo yo gushima;

nimucurarangire inanga Imana yacu.

8Apfukisha ijuru ibicu;

agaha isi imvura

akameza ivyatsi ku turambi.

9Ategurira amasho ivyokurya

n’ivyana vy’ibikona iyo bijwiragiye.

10Ntahimbarwa n’inkomezi z’ifarasi,

canke ngo yishimire amaguru y’umuhizi;

11Uhoraho ahimbarwa n’abamwubaha,

abishimira urukundo rwiwe rudashira.

12Nushime Uhoraho, ewe Yerusalemu;

uhimbaze Imana yawe, ewe Siyoni.

13Ni we akomeza imyugariro yawe

agaha umugisha abantu baba muri wewe.

14Atanga impore ku mbibe zawe,

akaguhaza ingano nziza cane.

15Atuma amabwirizwa yiwe kw’isi,

ijambo ryiwe rikagenda rinyaruka.

16Akwiragiza shelegi nk’ubwoya bw’intama,

ugukanya akagusanzaza nk’umunyota.

17Arekura urubura rwiwe nk’amabuye.

Ni nde yoshobora kurinda imbeho yiwe?

18Atuma ijambo ryiwe ngo riyashongeshe;

atuma umuyaga wiwe, amazi agashonga.

19Yahishuriye Yakobo ijambo ryiwe,

ivyagezwe vyiwe n’amategeko yiwe yabihishuriye Isirayeli.

20Nta rindi hanga na rimwe yakoreye nk’ivyo;

ntibazi ivyagezwe vyiwe.

Haleluya.
