The Apostles' Creed
English Version
I believe in God, the Father Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth.
I believe in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord,
who was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit, and born of the Virgin Mary.
He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried.
He descended to the dead.
On the third day he rose again.
He ascended into heaven,
and is seated at the right hand of God the Father,
He will come again to judge the living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the Holy Christian Church,
the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body,
and the life everlasting.
Amen.
Swahili Version
Namwamini Mungu, Baba Mwenyezi,
Muumba mbingu na nchi;
Na Yesu Kristo, Mwana wake wa pekee, Bwana wetu,
Aliyechukuliwa mimba kwa uwezo wa Roho Mtakatifu,
Akazaliwa na Bikira Mariamu,
Akateswa zamani za Pontio Pilato,
Akasulubiwa, Akafa, Akazikwa.
Akashuka mahali pa wafu,
siku ya tatu Akafufuka,
Akapaa mbinguni.
Ameketi kwa mkono wa kuume wa Mungu Baba Mwenyezi,
Kutoka huko Atakuja kuwahukumu walio hai na wafu.
Namwamini Roho Mtakatifu,
Kanisa takatifu la waaminifu wote,
Ushirika wa watakatifu,
Ondoleo la dhambi,
Kiama ya mwili,
na Uzima wa milele. Amina
