Zaburi 2

1 Kwa nini mataifa wanashauriana kufanya mabaya, na kabila za watu kula njama bure?

Why doe the heathen rage, and the people murmure in vaine?

2 Wafalme wa dunia wanajipanga na watawala wanajikusanya pamoja dhidi ya Bwana na dhidi ya Mpakwa Mafuta wake.

The Kings of the earth band themselues, and the princes are assembled together against the Lord, and against his Christ.

3 Wanasema, “Tuvunje minyororo yao na kuvitupilia mbali vifungo vyao.”

Let vs breake their bands, and cast their cordes from vs.

4 Yeye atawalaye mbinguni hucheka, Bwana huwadharau.

But he that dwelleth in the heauen, shall laugh: the Lord shall haue them in derision.

5 Kisha huwakemea katika hasira yake na kuwaogopesha katika ghadhabu yake, akisema,

Then shall hee speake vnto them in his wrath, and vexe them in his sore displeasure, saying,

6 “Nimemtawaza Mfalme wangu juu ya Sayuni, mlima wangu mtakatifu.”

Euen I haue set my King vpon Zion mine holy mountaine.

7 Nitatangaza amri ya Bwana: Yeye aliniambia, “Wewe ni Mwanangu, leo mimi nimekuzaa.

I will declare the decree: that is, the Lord hath said vnto me, Thou art my Sonne: this day haue I begotten thee.

8 Niombe, nami nitayafanya mataifa kuwa urithi wako, miisho ya dunia kuwa milki yako.

Aske of me, and I shall giue thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the endes of the earth for thy possession.

9 Utawatawala kwa fimbo ya chuma na kuwavunjavunja kama chombo cha mfinyanzi.”

Thou shalt krush them with a scepter of yron, and breake them in pieces like a potters vessell.

10 Kwa hiyo, ninyi wafalme, kuweni na hekima; mwonyeke, enyi watawala wa dunia.

Be wise nowe therefore, ye Kings: be learned ye Iudges of the earth.

11 Mtumikieni Bwana kwa hofu na mshangilie kwa kutetemeka.

Serue the Lord in feare, and reioyce in trembling.

12 Mbusu Mwana, asije akakasirika nawe ukaangamizwa katika njia yako, kwa maana hasira yake inaweza kuwaka ghafula. Heri wote wanaomkimbilia.

Kisse the sonne, least he be angry, and ye perish in the way, when his wrath shall suddenly burne. blessed are all that trust in him.
