Psalms 47

1 TO THE OVERSEER. A PSALM OF THE SONS OF KORAH. All you peoples, clap the hand, Shout to God with a voice of singing,

Kumqondisi wokuhlabela. ElamaDodana kaKhora. Ihubo. Qakezani izandla zenu, zizwe zonke; hlokomani kuNkulunkulu ngomsindo wokuthokoza.

2 For YHWH Most High [is] fearful, A great King over all the earth.

Wesabeka kangakanani uThixo oPhezukonke, iNkosi enkulu kuwo wonke umhlaba!

3 He leads peoples under us, and nations under our feet.

Wazehlula zonke izizwe zaba ngaphansi kwethu, abantu babangaphansi kwezinyawo zethu.

4 He chooses for us our inheritance, The excellence of Jacob that He loves. (Selah)

Wasikhethela ilifa lethu, igugu likaJakhobe amthandayo.

5 God has gone up with a shout, YHWH with the sound of a horn.

UNkulunkulu usekhuphukile phakathi komsindo wentokozo, uThixo uphakathi kokukhala kwamacilongo.

6 Praise God—praise—give praise to our king, praise.

Hlabelelani indumiso kuNkulunkulu, hlabelelani indumiso; hlabelelani indumiso eNkosini yethu, hlabelelani indumiso.

7 For God [is] King of all the earth, Give praise, O understanding one.

Ngoba uNkulunkulu uyiNkosi yomhlaba wonke; hlabelelani kuye ihubo lokudumisa.

8 God has reigned over nations, God has sat on His holy throne,

UNkulunkulu uyazibusa izizwe; uNkulunkulu uhlezi esihlalweni sakhe sobukhosi esingcwele.

9 Nobles of peoples have been gathered, [With] the people of the God of Abraham, For the shields of earth [are] to God, Greatly has He been exalted!

Izikhulu zezizwe ziyaqoqana njengabantu bakaNkulunkulu ka-Abhrahama, ngoba amakhosi omhlaba angakaNkulunkulu; uphakeme kakhulukazi.
