Psalms 47

1 To the chief Musician. Of the sons of Korah. A Psalm. All ye peoples, clap your hands; shout unto God with the voice of triumph!

Kwa mwimbishaji. Zaburi ya wana wa Kora. Pigeni makofi, enyi mataifa yote, mpigieni Mungu kelele za shangwe!

2 For Jehovah, the Most High, is terrible, a great king over all the earth.

Jinsi gani alivyo wa kutisha, Bwana Aliye Juu Sana, Mfalme mkuu juu ya dunia yote!

3 He subdueth the peoples under us, and the nations under our feet.

Ametiisha mataifa chini yetu watu wengi chini ya miguu yetu.

4 He hath chosen our inheritance for us, the excellency of Jacob whom he loved. (Selah)

Alituchagulia urithi wetu, fahari ya Yakobo, aliyempenda.

5 God is gone up amid shouting, Jehovah amid the sound of the trumpet.

Mungu amepaa kwa kelele za shangwe, Bwana kwa sauti za tarumbeta.

6 Sing psalms of God, sing psalms; sing psalms unto our King, sing psalms!

Mwimbieni Mungu sifa, imbeni sifa, mwimbieni sifa Mfalme wetu, imbeni sifa.

7 For God is the King of all the earth; sing psalms with understanding.

Kwa kuwa Mungu ni mfalme wa dunia yote, mwimbieni zaburi za sifa.

8 God reigneth over the nations; God sitteth upon the throne of his holiness.

Mungu anatawala juu ya mataifa, Mungu ameketi juu ya kiti chake cha enzi kitakatifu.

9 The willing-hearted of the peoples have gathered together, [with] the people of the God of Abraham. For unto God [belong] the shields of the earth: he is greatly exalted.

Wakuu wa mataifa wanakusanyika kama watu wa Mungu wa Abrahamu, kwa kuwa wafalme wa dunia ni mali ya Mungu; yeye ametukuka sana.
