< Psalms 76 >
1 TO THE OVERSEER. WITH STRINGED INSTRUMENTS. A PSALM OF ASAPH. A SONG. God [is] known in Judah, His Name [is] great in Israel.
Kwa mwimbishaji. Kwa ala za nyuzi za muziki. Zaburi ya Asafu. Wimbo. Katika Yuda, Mungu anajulikana, jina lake ni kuu katika Israeli.
2 And His dwelling place is in Salem, And His habitation in Zion.
Hema lake liko Salemu, makao yake katika Sayuni.
3 There He has shattered arrows of a bow, Shield, and sword, and battle. (Selah)
Huko alivunja mishale imetametayo, ngao na panga, silaha za vita.
4 You [are] bright, majestic above hills of prey.
Wewe unangʼaa kwa mwanga, mwenye fahari zaidi ya milima yenye utajiri wa wanyama pori.
5 The mighty of heart have spoiled themselves, They have slept their sleep, And none of the men of might found their hands.
Mashujaa hulala wametekwa nyara, hulala usingizi wao wa mwisho; hakuna hata mmoja wa watu wa vita anayeweza kuinua mikono yake.
6 From Your rebuke, O God of Jacob, Both rider and horse have been fast asleep.
Kwa kukemea kwako, Ee Mungu wa Yakobo, farasi na gari la vita vilikaa kimya.
7 You, fearful [are] You, And who stands before You, Since You have been angry?
Wewe peke yako ndiye wa kuogopwa. Ni nani awezaye kusimama mbele yako unapokasirika?
8 You have sounded judgment from the heavens, Earth has feared, and has been still,
Kutoka mbinguni ulitamka hukumu, nayo nchi ikaogopa, ikawa kimya:
9 In the rising of God to judgment, To save all the humble of earth. (Selah)
wakati wewe, Ee Mungu, ulipoinuka kuhukumu, kuwaokoa wote walioonewa katika nchi.
10 For the fierceness of man praises You, You gird on the remnant of fierceness.
Hakika ghadhabu yako dhidi ya wanadamu inakuletea sifa, na masalia ya ghadhabu yako unajifunga mshipi.
11 Vow and complete to your God YHWH, All you surrounding Him, They bring presents to the Fearful One.
Wekeni nadhiri kwa Bwana Mungu wenu na kuzitimiza; nchi zote za jirani na walete zawadi kwa Yule astahiliye kuogopwa.
12 He gathers the spirit of leaders, Fearful to the kings of earth!
Huvunja roho za watawala; anaogopwa na wafalme wa dunia.
