< Zaburi 2 >

1 Kwa nini mataifa wanashauriana kufanya mabaya, na kabila za watu kula njama bure?
Why? do they plot nations and peoples do they devise? vanity.
2 Wafalme wa dunia wanajipanga na watawala wanajikusanya pamoja dhidi ya Bwana na dhidi ya Mpakwa Mafuta wake.
They take their stand - [the] kings of [the] earth and rulers they seat themselves together on Yahweh and on anointed his.
3 Wanasema, “Tuvunje minyororo yao na kuvitupilia mbali vifungo vyao.”
Let us tear off fetters their and let us throw away from us ropes their.
4 Yeye atawalaye mbinguni hucheka, Bwana huwadharau.
[the one who] sits In the heavens he laughs [the] Lord he mocks them.
5 Kisha huwakemea katika hasira yake na kuwaogopesha katika ghadhabu yake, akisema,
Then he speaks to them in anger his and in fury his he terrifies them.
6 “Nimemtawaza Mfalme wangu juu ya Sayuni, mlima wangu mtakatifu.”
And I I have installed king my on Zion [the] mountain of holiness my.
7 Nitatangaza amri ya Bwana: Yeye aliniambia, “Wewe ni Mwanangu, leo mimi nimekuzaa.
I will recount concerning [the] decree of Yahweh he said to me [are] son my you I this day I have begotten you.
8 Niombe, nami nitayafanya mataifa kuwa urithi wako, miisho ya dunia kuwa milki yako.
Ask from me so let me make nations inheritance your and possession your [the] ends of [the] earth.
9 Utawatawala kwa fimbo ya chuma na kuwavunjavunja kama chombo cha mfinyanzi.”
You will break them with a rod of iron like a vessel of a potter you will smash them.
10 Kwa hiyo, ninyi wafalme, kuweni na hekima; mwonyeke, enyi watawala wa dunia.
And therefore O kings act prudently let yourselves be instructed O rulers of [the] earth.
11 Mtumikieni Bwana kwa hofu na mshangilie kwa kutetemeka.
Serve Yahweh with fear and rejoice with trembling.
12 Mbusu Mwana, asije akakasirika nawe ukaangamizwa katika njia yako, kwa maana hasira yake inaweza kuwaka ghafula. Heri wote wanaomkimbilia.
Kiss [the] son lest he should be angry - and you may perish way if it burns like a little anger his how blessed! [are] all [those who] seek refuge in him.
