Psalms 76
1 People in Judah know God; the Israeli people honor him [MTY].
Kwa mwimbishaji. Kwa ala za nyuzi za muziki. Zaburi ya Asafu. Wimbo. Katika Yuda, Mungu anajulikana, jina lake ni kuu katika Israeli.
2 His home is in Jerusalem; he lives on Zion [Hill].
Hema lake liko Salemu, makao yake katika Sayuni.
3 There he broke the flaming arrows [that his enemies shot], [and he also broke] their shields and swords and other weapons that they used in battles.
Huko alivunja mishale imetametayo, ngao na panga, silaha za vita.
4 God, you are glorious! You are like a king [as you return from] the mountains [where you defeated your enemies].
Wewe unangʼaa kwa mwanga, mwenye fahari zaidi ya milima yenye utajiri wa wanyama pori.
5 Their brave soldiers [were killed, and then those who killed them] took away everything that those soldiers had. Those enemies died [EUP], [so] they were unable to use their weapons [any more]!
Mashujaa hulala wametekwa nyara, hulala usingizi wao wa mwisho; hakuna hata mmoja wa watu wa vita anayeweza kuinua mikono yake.
6 When you, the God whom Jacob [worshiped], rebuked [your enemies], [the result was that their] horses and their riders fell down dead.
Kwa kukemea kwako, Ee Mungu wa Yakobo, farasi na gari la vita vilikaa kimya.
7 But you cause everyone to be afraid. When you are angry [and you punish people], no one can [RHQ] endure it.
Wewe peke yako ndiye wa kuogopwa. Ni nani awezaye kusimama mbele yako unapokasirika?
8 From heaven you proclaimed that you would judge people, [and then everyone on] the earth was afraid and did not say [anything more],
Kutoka mbinguni ulitamka hukumu, nayo nchi ikaogopa, ikawa kimya:
9 when you arose to declare that you would punish [wicked people] and rescue all those whom they had oppressed.
wakati wewe, Ee Mungu, ulipoinuka kuhukumu, kuwaokoa wote walioonewa katika nchi.
10 When [you punish those] with whom you are angry, your people will praise you, and [your enemies] who (survive/are not killed) will worship you on your festival days.
Hakika ghadhabu yako dhidi ya wanadamu inakuletea sifa, na masalia ya ghadhabu yako unajifunga mshipi.
11 [So] give to Yahweh the offerings that you promised to give to him; all the people of nearby people-groups should also bring gifts to him, the one who is awesome.
Wekeni nadhiri kwa Bwana Mungu wenu na kuzitimiza; nchi zote za jirani na walete zawadi kwa Yule astahiliye kuogopwa.
12 He humbles [IDM] princes, and [even] causes [great] kings to be terrified.
Huvunja roho za watawala; anaogopwa na wafalme wa dunia.
