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.

Kwa mwimbishaji. Zaburi ya wana wa Kora. Pigeni makofi, enyi mataifa yote, mpigieni Mungu kelele za shangwe!

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

Jinsi gani alivyo wa kutisha, Bwana Aliye Juu Sana, Mfalme mkuu juu ya dunia yote!

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

Ametiisha mataifa chini yetu watu wengi chini ya miguu yetu.

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

Alituchagulia urithi wetu, fahari ya Yakobo, aliyempenda.

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

Mungu amepaa kwa kelele za shangwe, Bwana kwa sauti za tarumbeta.

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

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

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

Kwa kuwa Mungu ni mfalme wa dunia yote, mwimbieni zaburi za sifa.

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

Mungu anatawala juu ya mataifa, Mungu ameketi juu ya kiti chake cha enzi kitakatifu.

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.

Wakuu wa mataifa wanakusanyika kama watu wa Mungu wa Abrahamu, kwa kuwa wafalme wa dunia ni mali ya Mungu; yeye ametukuka sana.
