Psalms 47

1 Unto the end. A Psalm for the sons of Korah. All nations, clap your hands. Shout joyfully to God with a voice of exultation.

Nzembo ya bana ya Kore. Wuta na buku ya mokambi ya bayembi. Bino nyonso, bikolo, bobeta maboko! Boganga epai na Nzambe na esengo nyonso.

2 For the Lord is exalted and terrible: a great King over all the earth.

Tala ndenge nini Yawe, Ye-Oyo-Aleki-Likolo, azali somo! Azali Mokonzi Monene na mokili mobimba.

3 He has subjected the peoples to us and subdued the nations under our feet.

Atiaki bikolo na se na biso, mpe mabota na se ya bokonzi na biso.

4 He has chosen us for his inheritance: the splendor of Jacob, whom he has loved.

Aponelaki biso libula na biso, oyo ezali lokumu ya Jakobi, molingami na Ye.

5 God ascends with jubilation, and the Lord with the voice of the trumpet.

Nzambe amataki kati na koganga ya esengo; Yawe ayaka kati na lokito ya kelelo.

6 Sing psalms to our God, sing psalms. Sing psalms to our King, sing psalms.

Boyemba mpo na lokumu ya Nzambe, boyemba mpo na lokumu na Ye. Boyemba mpo na lokumu ya Mokonzi na biso, boyemba mpo na lokumu na Ye.

7 For God is the King of all the earth. Sing psalms wisely.

Pamba te Nzambe azali Mokonzi ya mokili mobimba; boyemba nzembo mpo na lokumu na Ye.

8 God will reign over the peoples. God sits upon his holy throne.

Nzambe akonzaka bikolo nyonso; Nzambe avandi na Kiti na Ye ya bule.

9 The leaders of the peoples have been gathered together by the God of Abraham. For the strong gods of the earth have been exceedingly exalted.

Bato minene ya bikolo basangani, lokola bato ya Nzambe ya Abrayami, pamba te bilombe ya mokili bazali ya Nzambe; atombwama makasi.
