Zaburi 47

1 Kwa mwimbishaji. Zaburi ya wana wa Kora. Pigeni makofi, enyi mataifa yote, mpigieni Mungu kelele za shangwe!

To him that excelleth. A Psalme committed to the sonnes of Korah. All people clap your hands: sing loude vnto God with a ioyfull voyce.

2 Jinsi gani alivyo wa kutisha, Bwana Aliye Juu Sana, Mfalme mkuu juu ya dunia yote!

For the Lord is high, and terrible: a great King ouer all the earth.

3 Ametiisha mataifa chini yetu watu wengi chini ya miguu yetu.

He hath subdued the people vnder vs, and the nations vnder our feete.

4 Alituchagulia urithi wetu, fahari ya Yakobo, aliyempenda.

Hee hath chosen our inheritance for vs: euen the glory of Iaakob whom he loued. (Selah)

5 Mungu amepaa kwa kelele za shangwe, Bwana kwa sauti za tarumbeta.

God is gone vp with triumph, euen the Lord, with the sound of the trumpet.

6 Mwimbieni Mungu sifa, imbeni sifa, mwimbieni sifa Mfalme wetu, imbeni sifa.

Sing prayses to God, sing prayses: sing prayses vnto our King, sing prayses.

7 Kwa kuwa Mungu ni mfalme wa dunia yote, mwimbieni zaburi za sifa.

For God is the King of all the earth: sing prayses euery one that hath vnderstanding.

8 Mungu anatawala juu ya mataifa, Mungu ameketi juu ya kiti chake cha enzi kitakatifu.

God reigneth ouer the heathen: God sitteth vpon his holy throne.

9 Wakuu wa mataifa wanakusanyika kama watu wa Mungu wa Abrahamu, kwa kuwa wafalme wa dunia ni mali ya Mungu; yeye ametukuka sana.

The princes of the people are gathered vnto the people of the God of Abraham: for the shields of the world belong to God: he is greatly to be exalted.
