Psalms 47

1 For the Chief Musician; a Psalm of the sons of Korah. O clap your hands, all ye peoples; shout unto God with the voice of triumph.

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

2 For the LORD Most High is terrible; he is a great King over all the earth.

Wesabeka kangakanani uThixo oPhezukonke, iNkosi enkulu kuwo wonke umhlaba!

3 He shall subdue the peoples under us, and the nations under our feet.

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

4 He shall choose our inheritance for us, the excellency of Jacob whom he loved. (Selah)

Wasikhethela ilifa lethu, igugu likaJakhobe amthandayo.

5 God is gone up with a shout, the LORD with the sound of a trumpet.

UNkulunkulu usekhuphukile phakathi komsindo wentokozo, uThixo uphakathi kokukhala kwamacilongo.

6 Sing praises to God, sing praises: sing praises unto our King, sing praises.

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

7 For God is the King of all the earth: sing ye praises with understanding.

Ngoba uNkulunkulu uyiNkosi yomhlaba wonke; hlabelelani kuye ihubo lokudumisa.

8 God reigneth over the nations: God sitteth upon his holy throne.

UNkulunkulu uyazibusa izizwe; uNkulunkulu uhlezi esihlalweni sakhe sobukhosi esingcwele.

9 The princes of the peoples are gathered together [to be] the people of the God of Abraham: for the shields of the earth belong unto God; he is greatly exalted.

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