Psalms 29

1 A Melody of David. Give to Yahweh, ye sons of the mighty, —Give to Yahweh, [both] glory and strength:

Mpeni sifa Yahwe, enyi wana wa Mungu! Mpeni sifa Yahwe kwa ajili ya utukufu wake na nguvu.

2 Give to Yahweh, the glory of his Name, Bow down to Yahweh, in the adornment of holiness.

Mpeni Yahwe utukufu ambao jina lake linastahili. Mpigieni magoti Yahwe katika mapambo ya utakatifu.

3 The voice of Yahweh, is upon the waters, —The GOD of glory, hath thundered, Yahweh, is upon mighty waters;

Sauti ya Yahwe imesikika zaidi ya maji; Mungu wa radi ya utukufu, radi yaYahwe i juu ya maji mengi.

4 The voice of Yahweh, is with power, The voice of Yahweh, is with majesty;

Sauti ya Yahwe ina nguvu; sauti ya Yahwe ni kuu.

5 The voice of Yahweh, is breaking cedars, Now hath Yahweh, broken down, the cedars of Lebanon!

Sauti ya Yahwe huivunja mierezi; Yahwe huivunja vipande vipande mierezi ya Lebanon.

6 And hath made them leap like a calf, Lebanon and Sirion, like the bull-calf of wild-oxen;

Yeye huifanya Lebanoni kuruka kama ndama wa ng'ombe na Sirioni kama mwana wa nyati.

7 The voice of Yahweh, is cleaving out flames of fire;

Sauti ya Yahwe hutoa miale ya moto.

8 The voice of Yahweh, bringeth birth-pains upon the wilderness; Yahweh bringeth birth-pains upon the wilderness of Kadesh!

Sauti ya Yahwe hutetemesha Jangwa; Yahwe hutetemesha jangwa la Kadeshi.

9 The voice of Yahweh, causeth the gazelles to bring forth, and hath stript forests; and, in his own temple, every one there, is saying, Glory!

Sauti ya Yahwe huufanya miti mikubwa kutikisika na huipukutisha misitu. Kila mmoja katika hekalu lake husema, “Utukufu!”

10 Yahweh, at the Flood, was seated, And Yahweh hath taken his seat, as king, unto times age-abiding.

Yahwe hukaa kama mfalme juu ya mafuriko; Yahwe hukaa kama mfalme milele.

11 Yahweh, will give, strength to his people, —Yahweh, will bless his people with prosperity.

Yahwe huwatia nguvu watu wake; Yahwe huwa bariki watu wake na amani.
