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,

Pigeni makofi, enyi watu wote; mpigieni Mungu kelele za ushindi.

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

Kwa maana Yahwe Aliye Juu anatisha; ni Mfalme mkuu dunia yote.

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

Yeye anawatiisha chini yetu na mataifa chini ya miguu yetu.

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

Yeye huchagua urithi kwa ajili yetu, utukufu wa Yakobo ambaye alimpenda. Serah

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

Mungu ameinuliwa juu kwa shangwe, Kwa mbiu ya shangwe Yahwe yu juu.

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

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

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

Kwa maana Mungu ni Mfalme duniani kote; mwimbieni mkiwa na uelewa.

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

Mungu anatawala mataifa yote; Mungu hukaa kwenye kiti cha enzi.

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!

Wakuu wa watu wamekusanyika pamoja kwa watu wa Mungu wa Ibrahimu; kwa kuwa ngao za duniani ni za Mungu; yeye ameinuliwa juu sana.
