Psalms 76

1 In Judah is God known: his name is great in Israel.

Mungu amefanya mwenyewe kujulikana katika Yuda; jina lake ni kuu katika Israeli.

2 In Salem also is his tabernacle, and his dwelling place in Zion.

Hema yake iko salemu; makao yake yako yako Sayuni.

3 There brake he the arrows of the bow, the shield, and the sword, and the battle. (Selah)

Huko ndiko alivunja mishale ya upinde, ngao, upanga, na silaha zingine za vita. (Selah)

4 Thou art more glorious and excellent than the mountains of prey.

Wewe unang'aa sana na huufunua utukufu wako, ushukapo kutoka milimani, ambako uliwauwa mateka.

5 The stouthearted are spoiled, they have slept their sleep: and none of the men of might have found their hands.

Wenye moyo shujaa walitekwa nyara; walilala mauti. Mashujaa wote walikuwa wanyonge.

6 At thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, both the chariot and horse are cast into a dead sleep.

Kwa kukemea kwako, ewe Mungu wa Yakobo, wote gari na farasi walilala mauti.

7 Thou, even thou, art to be feared: and who may stand in thy sight when once thou art angry?

Wewe, ndiyo wewe, ni wa kuogopwa; ni nani awezaye kusimama mbele yako wakati ukiwa na hasira?

8 Thou didst cause judgment to be heard from heaven; the earth feared, and was still,

Kutoka mbinguni wewe uliifanya hukumu yako isikike; nchi iliogopa na ikaa kimya

9 When God arose to judgment, to save all the meek of the earth. (Selah)

wakati wewe, Mungu, ulipoinuka kutekeleza hukumu na kuwaokoa wote wa nchi walio onewa. (Selah)

10 Surely the wrath of man shall praise thee: the remainder of wrath shalt thou restrain.

Hakika hukumu ya hasira yako dhidi ya binadamu itakuletea wewe sifa; wewe hujifunga mwenyewe hasira yako iliyo baki.

11 Vow, and pay unto Yhwh your God: let all that be round about him bring presents unto him that ought to be feared.

Wekeni nadhiri kwa Yahwe Mungu wenu na kuzihifadhi. Nao wote wamzungukao yeye mleteeni zawadi yeye ambaye ni wa kuogopwa.

12 He shall cut off the spirit of princes: he is terrible to the kings of the earth.

Yeye huzikata roho za wakuu; huogopwa na wafalme wa nchi.
