Psalms 47

1 You people all [over the world], clap your hands for joy! Shout joyfully to [praise] God!

Pilnam thlangkhqi boeih aw, nami kut bei unawh taw; zeel doena Khawsa venawh khy lah uh.

2 Yahweh, who is much greater than any other god, is awesome; he is the king who rules over all the world!

Sawsang soeih Bawipa taw kqih awm nawh, khawmdek boeih ak khan awh sangpahrang bau soeih na awm hy!

3 He enabled us to defeat [the armies of] the people-groups [that lived in Canaan].

Pilnam thlangkhqi ce ningnih ak kaina ta law nawh, ningnih a khawk kaina ta law hy.

4 He chose for us this land where we now live; we Israeli people [MTY], whom he loves, are proud that we own this land.

Amah ing a lungnaak, Jacob ing a zoeksang qunaak qam ce ningnih a khawk kaina ta law hy.

5 God has gone up [into his temple]. The people shouted joyfully and blew trumpets as Yahweh went up.

Awmhly zeelmang ing khynaak anglak li awh Khawsa ce hang kai nawh, uut awi anglak li awh Khawsa taw hang kai hy.

6 Sing songs to praise our God! Sing to praise him [DOU]! Sing to God, our king!

Khawsa venawh kyihcahnaak laa sa lah uh, kyihcahnaak laa sa lah uh; ningnih sangpahrang a venawh kyihcahnaak laa sa lah uh, kyihcahnaak laa sa lah uh.

7 God is the one who rules over everything in the world; sing a psalm to him!

Ikawtih Khawsa taw Khawmdek boeih a Khawsa na awm hy saam kyihcah naak laa ce a venawh sa lah uh.

8 God sits on his sacred throne as he rules over the people of [all] ethnic groups.

Pilnam ak khan awh Khawsa taw boei na awm hy; a boei ngawihdoelh ciim awh ce Khawsa taw ngawi hy.

9 The rulers of those people-groups gather as God’s people, the people [descended] from Abraham, [do]. But God has more power than the weapons/shields [of all the kings] on the earth; (he is greatly honored/people honor him) everywhere.

Abraham Khawsa ak thlang na ami awm dawngawh pilnam thlang boeikhqi ing cun uhy; kawtih, aw khawmdek awhkaw sangpahrang khqi awm Khawsa koe ni; anih taw khawteh na zoeksang na awm hawh hy.
