< Psalms 47 >
1 To the chief music-maker. A Psalm. Of the sons of Korah. O make a glad noise with your hands, all you peoples; letting your voices go up to God with joy.
科辣黑後裔的詩歌,交與樂官。 萬民,你們要鼓掌歡騰,要向天主歡呼祝慶!
2 For the Lord Most High is to be feared; he is a great King over all the earth.
上主至大至尊,可敬可畏,祂是統宇宙的偉大君主。
3 He will put down the peoples under us, and the nations under our feet.
祂鎮壓萬民屬我們管轄,祂屈服列邦在我們腳下。
4 He will give us our heritage, the glory of Jacob who is dear to him. (Selah)
祂為我們選定了我們的基業,即祂所鍾愛的雅各伯的光彩。
5 God has gone up with a glad cry, the Lord with the sound of the horn.
天主上升,有歡呼聲護送,上主騰空,有號角聲相從。
6 Give praises to God, make songs of praise; give praises to our King, make songs of praise.
你們應歌頌,歌頌我們的天主,你們應歌頌,歌頌我們的君王。
7 For God is the King of all the earth; make songs of praise with knowledge.
因為天主是普世的君王,你們都應該以詩歌讚揚。
8 God is the ruler over the nations; God is on the high seat of his holy rule.
天主作王統治萬國,天主登上聖座寶位。
9 The rulers of the peoples have come together, with the people of the God of Abraham; because the powers of the earth are God's: he is lifted up on high.
萬民的王侯聚起來,要作亞巴郎天主的子民;因為大地的權貴,盡屬於天主,唯有天主至高至尊。
