< Psalms 48 >
1 The song of salm, of the sones of Chore. The Lord is greet, and worthi to be preisid ful myche; in the citee of oure God, in the hooli hil of hym.
Wimbo. Zaburi ya wana wa Kora. Bwana ni mkuu, anayestahili kusifiwa sana, katika mji wa Mungu wetu, mlima wake mtakatifu.
2 It is foundid in the ful out ioiyng of al erthe; the hil of Syon; the sidis of the north, the citee of the greet kyng.
Ni mzuri katika kuinuka kwake juu sana, furaha ya dunia yote. Kama vilele vya juu sana vya Safoni ni Mlima Sayuni, mji wa Mfalme Mkuu.
3 God schal be knowun in the housis therof; whanne he schal take it.
Mungu yuko katika ngome zake; amejionyesha mwenyewe kuwa ngome yake.
4 For lo! the kyngis of erthe weren gaderid togidere; thei camen into o place.
Wakati wafalme walipounganisha nguvu, waliposonga mbele pamoja,
5 Thei seynge so wondriden; thei weren disturblid, thei weren mouyd togidere, tremblyng took hem.
walimwona nao wakashangaa, wakakimbia kwa hofu.
6 There sorewis as of a womman trauelynge of child;
Kutetemeka kuliwashika huko, maumivu kama ya mwanamke mwenye utungu wa kuzaa.
7 in a greet spirit thou schalt al to-breke the schippis of Tharsis.
Uliwaangamiza kama meli za Tarshishi zilizovunjwa na upepo wa mashariki.
8 As we herden, so we sien, in the citee of the Lord of vertues, in the citee of oure God; God hath foundid that citee with outen ende.
Kama tulivyokuwa tumesikia, ndivyo tulivyoona katika mji wa Bwana Mwenye Nguvu Zote, katika mji wa Mungu wetu: Mungu ataufanya uwe salama milele.
9 God, we han resseyued thi mercy; in the myddis of thi temple.
Ee Mungu, hekaluni mwako tunatafakari upendo wako usiokoma.
10 Aftir thi name, God, so thin heriyng is spred abrood in to the endis of erthe; thi riyt hond is ful of riytfulnesse.
Ee Mungu, kama jina lako lilivyo, sifa zako zinafika hadi miisho ya dunia, mkono wako wa kuume umejazwa na haki.
11 The hil of Sion be glad, and the douytris of Judee be fulli ioiful; for thi domes, Lord.
Mlima Sayuni unashangilia, vijiji vya Yuda vinafurahi kwa sababu ya hukumu zako.
12 Cumpasse ye Syon, and biclippe ye it; telle ye in the touris therof.
Tembeeni katika Sayuni, uzungukeni mji, hesabuni minara yake;
13 Sette ye youre hertis in the vertu of him; and departe ye the housis of hym, that ye telle out in an other generacioun.
yatafakarini vyema maboma yake, angalieni ngome zake, ili mpate kusimulia habari zake kwa kizazi kijacho.
14 For this is God, oure God, in to withouten ende, and in to the world of world; he schal gouerne vs in to worldis.
Kwa kuwa huyu Mungu ni Mungu wetu milele na milele; atakuwa kiongozi wetu hata mwisho.
