< Zaburi 46 >

1 Mungu kwetu ni kimbilio la usalama na nguvu, upatikanao tele wakati wa mateso.
For the Leader; a Psalm of the sons of Korah; upon Alamoth. A Song. God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
2 Hivyo hatutaogopa, hata kama dunia italazimika kubadilika, hata kama milima italazimika kutetemeka na kuangukia kwenye mtima wa bahari, hata kama maji yatavuma kwa kishindo kikuu,
Therefore will we not fear, though the earth do change, and though the mountains be moved into the heart of the seas;
3 hata kama milima itatetemeka kwa vurugu ya maji. (Selah)
Though the waters thereof roar and foam, though the mountains shake at the swelling thereof. (Selah)
4 Kuna mto, mikondo yake huufanya mji wa Mungu kufurahi, mahali patakatifu pa hema ya Aliye Juu.
There is a river, the streams whereof make glad the city of God, the holiest dwelling-place of the Most High.
5 Mungu yuko katikati yake; naye hatasogezwa; Mungu atamsaidia, naye atafanya hivyo asubuhi na mapema.
God is in the midst of her, she shall not be moved; God shall help her, at the approach of morning.
6 Mataifa yalikasirika na falme zikataharuki; yeye alipaza sauti yake, na nchi ikayeyuka.
Nations were in tumult, kingdoms were moved; He uttered His voice, the earth melted.
7 Yahwe wa majeshi yuko pamoja nasi; Mungu wa Yakobo ni kimbilio letu la usalama. (Selah)
The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our high tower. (Selah)
8 Njoni, mtazame matendo ya Yahwe, uharibifu alioufanya juu ya nchi.
Come, behold the works of the LORD, who hath made desolations in the earth.
9 Anaisitisha vita kwenye nchi; yeye anauvunja upinde na kuikata vipande vipande mishale; anazichoma ngao.
He maketh wars to cease unto the end of the earth; He breaketh the bow, and cutteth the spear in sunder; He burneth the chariots in the fire.
10 Mkae kimya na mjue kuwa mimi ni Mungu; nitainuliwa juu ya nchi.
'Let be, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.'
11 Mungu wa majeshi yuko pamoja nasi; Mungu wa Yakobo ni kimbilio letu la usalama. Serah
The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our high tower. (Selah)
