Amahubo 47

1 Tshayani isandla, zizwe zonke, hlokomani kuNkulunkulu ngelizwi lentokozo.

For the choirmaster. A Psalm of the sons of Korah. Clap your hands, all you peoples; shout unto God with a voice of triumph.

2 Ngoba iNkosi, oPhezukonke, iyesabeka, yiNkosi enkulu phezu komhlaba wonke.

How awesome is the LORD Most High, the great King over all the earth!

3 Izakwehlisela abantu ngaphansi kwethu, lezizwe ngaphansi kwenyawo zethu.

He subdues nations beneath us, and peoples under our feet.

4 Izasikhethela ilifa lethu, udumo lukaJakobe emthandayo. (Sela)

He chooses our inheritance for us, the pride of Jacob, whom He loves.

5 UNkulunkulu wenyukile ngokuhlokoma, iNkosi ngokukhala kophondo.

God has ascended amid shouts of joy, the LORD with the sound of the horn.

6 Hlabelani indumiso kuNkulunkulu, hlabelelani indumiso. Hlabelani indumiso eNkosini yethu, hlabelelani indumiso.

Sing praises to God, sing praises; sing praises to our King, sing praises!

7 Ngoba uNkulunkulu uyiNkosi yomhlaba wonke; hlabelelani indumiso ngokuqedisisa.

For God is King of all the earth; sing profound praises to Him.

8 UNkulunkulu uyabusa phezu kwezizwe; uNkulunkulu uhlezi esihlalweni sobukhosi sobungcwele bakhe.

God reigns over the nations; God is seated on His holy throne.

9 Iziphathamandla zabantu zibuthene ndawonye, abantu bakaNkulunkulu kaAbrahama. Ngoba izihlangu zomhlaba zingezikaNkulunkulu; uphakeme kakhulu.

The nobles of the nations have assembled as the people of the God of Abraham; for the shields of the earth belong to God; He is highly exalted.
