Zaburi 47

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

To the Chief Musician. For the Sons of Korah. A Melody. All ye peoples, clap your hands, Shout unto God, with the voice of triumph;

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

For, Yahweh—as Most High, is to be revered, A great king, over all the earth,

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

He will subjugate, Peoples under us, and, Tribes of men beneath our feet.

4 Alituchagulia urithi wetu, fahari ya Yakobo, aliyempenda.

He chooseth for us our inheritance, The excellence of Jacob, which he hath loved. (Selah)

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

God hath ascended with a shout, Yahweh, with the sound of a horn.

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

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

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

For God is king of all the earth, Sing praises with understanding.

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

God, hath become king, over the nations, God, hath taken his seat upon 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 willing-hearted of the peoples, have gathered themselves together, The people of the God of Abraham; For, to God, belong the shields of the earth, Greatly is he exalted.
