Psalmi 47

1 Koraha bērnu dziesma. Dziedātāju vadonim. Plaukšķinājiet priecīgi, visi ļaudis, un gavilējiet Dievam ar priecīgu balsi.

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

2 Jo Tas Kungs, tas visuaugstais, ir bijājams, liels ķēniņš pa visu zemi.

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

3 Viņš sadzīs tautas apakš mums, un ļaudis apakš mūsu kājām.

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

4 Viņš mums izrauga mūsu mantojumu, Jēkaba godību, ko Viņš mīļo. (Sela)

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

5 Dievs uzkāpj ar gavilēšanu, Tas Kungs ar skaņu bazūni.

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

6 Dziediet Dievam, dziedājiet; dziediet mūsu Ķēniņam, dziedājiet.

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

7 Jo Dievs ir Ķēniņš pār visu zemi, dziediet Viņam dziesmu.

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

8 Dievs valda pār pagāniem, Dievs sēž uz Sava svētā krēsla.

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

9 Tautu lielkungi sapulcējušies par tautu Ābrahāma Dievam, jo zemes varenie pieder Dievam; Viņš ir ļoti paaugstināts.

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.
