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.

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

2 And His dwelling place is in Salem, And His habitation in Zion.

Hema yake iko salemu; makao yake yako yako Sayuni.

3 There He has shattered arrows of a bow, Shield, and sword, and battle. (Selah)

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

4 You [are] bright, majestic above hills of prey.

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

5 The mighty of heart have spoiled themselves, They have slept their sleep, And none of the men of might found their hands.

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

6 From Your rebuke, O God of Jacob, Both rider and horse have been fast asleep.

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

7 You, fearful [are] You, And who stands before You, Since You have been angry?

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

8 You have sounded judgment from the heavens, Earth has feared, and has been still,

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

9 In the rising of God to judgment, To save all the humble of earth. (Selah)

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

10 For the fierceness of man praises You, You gird on the remnant of fierceness.

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

11 Vow and complete to your God YHWH, All you surrounding Him, They bring presents to the Fearful One.

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

12 He gathers the spirit of leaders, Fearful to the kings of earth!

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