Psalms 47

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

Untuk pemimpin biduan. Dari bani Korah. Mazmur. Hai segala bangsa, bertepuktanganlah, elu-elukanlah Allah dengan sorak-sorai!

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

Sebab TUHAN, Yang Mahatinggi, adalah dahsyat, Raja yang besar atas seluruh bumi.

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

Ia menaklukkan bangsa-bangsa ke bawah kuasa kita, suku-suku bangsa ke bawah kaki kita,

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.

Ia memilih bagi kita tanah pusaka kita, kebanggaan Yakub yang dikasihi-Nya. (Sela)

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

Allah telah naik dengan diiringi sorak-sorai, ya TUHAN itu, dengan diiringi bunyi sangkakala.

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

Bermazmurlah bagi Allah, bermazmurlah, bermazmurlah bagi Raja kita, bermazmurlah!

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

Sebab Allah adalah Raja seluruh bumi, bermazmurlah dengan nyanyian pengajaran!

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

Allah memerintah sebagai raja atas bangsa-bangsa, Allah bersemayam di atas takhta-Nya yang kudus.

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.

Para pemuka bangsa-bangsa berkumpul sebagai umat Allah Abraham. Sebab Allah yang empunya perisai-perisai bumi; Ia sangat dimuliakan.
