Je was op zoek naar: dua for our parents (Engels - Swahili)

for our pleasures.
kwa raha zetu

they said, “we found our parents worshiping them.”
wakasema: tumewakuta baba zetu wakiyaabudu.

except for our first death?
isipo kuwa kifo chetu cha kwanza?

all this as sustenance for our servants.
ili iwe ni riziki kwa waja wangu.

so for our punishment are they impatient?
basi, je, wanaihimiza adhabu yetu?

are you trying to prevent us from worshiping what our parents worship?
je, unatukataza tusiwaabudu waliyo kuwa wakiwaabudu baba zetu?

so are they being impatient for our punishment?
je! wanaihimiza adhabu yetu?

do they then ask for our penalty to be hastened on?
basi, je, wanaihimiza adhabu yetu?

his sons said: 'father, ask forgiveness for our sins.
wakasema: ee baba yetu! tuombee msamaha kwa dhambi zetu.

and moses chose from his people seventy men for our appointment.
na musa akawateuwa watu sabiini katika kaumu yake kwa miadi yetu.

except for our first death, and we will not be punished?"
isipo kuwa kifo chetu cha kwanza? wala sisi hatutaadhibiwa.

and indeed our word has already gone forth for our bondmen who were sent.
na bila ya shaka neno letu lilikwisha tangulia kwa waja wetu walio tumwa.

as a provision for our servants, and with it we revive a dead country.
ili iwe ni riziki kwa waja wangu. na tukaifufua kwa maji nchi iliyo kuwa imekufa.

for our exhortation was not of deceit, nor of uncleanness, nor in guile:
jambo tunalosisitiza kwenu si jambo linalotegemea uongo au nia mbaya; wala hatupendi kumdanganya mtu yeyote.

and, verily, our word has gone forth of old for our slaves, the messengers,
na bila ya shaka neno letu lilikwisha tangulia kwa waja wetu walio tumwa.

and thus they may show utter ingratitude for our favours; let them enjoy themselves for a time.
wapate kuyakanya tuliyo wapa, na wajistareheshe.

and musa singled out of his people seventy men for our appointment, then when the earthquake laid hold of them he said.
na musa akawateuwa watu sabiini katika kaumu yake kwa miadi yetu. na ulipo fika mtetemeko mkubwa alisema: ewe mola wangu mlezi!

and when they commit an indecency, they say, “we found our parents doing this, and god has commanded us to do it.”
na wanapo fanya mambo machafu husema: tumewakuta nayo baba zetu, na mwenyezi mungu ametuamrisha hayo.

abraham was the man whom we chose for our service in this world, and in the next world he shall be among the righteous.
na kwa yakini sisi tulimteuwa yeye katika dunia; na hakika yeye katika akhera atakuwa miongoni mwa watu wema.
