Zaburi 46
1 Mungu kwetu ni kimbilio la usalama na nguvu, upatikanao tele wakati wa mateso.
For the chief musician. A psalm of the sons of Korah; set to 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 we will not fear, though the earth should change, though the mountains should be shaken into the heart of the seas,
3 hata kama milima itatetemeka kwa vurugu ya maji. (Selah)
though its waters roar and rage, and though the mountains tremble with their swelling. (Selah)
4 Kuna mto, mikondo yake huufanya mji wa Mungu kufurahi, mahali patakatifu pa hema ya Aliye Juu.
There is a river whose streams make the city of God happy, the holy place where the Most High dwells.
5 Mungu yuko katikati yake; naye hatasogezwa; Mungu atamsaidia, naye atafanya hivyo asubuhi na mapema.
God is in the middle of her; she will not be moved; God will help her, and he will do so at the dawn of morning.
6 Mataifa yalikasirika na falme zikataharuki; yeye alipaza sauti yake, na nchi ikayeyuka.
The nations raged and the kingdoms were shaken; he lifted up his voice, and the earth melted.
7 Yahwe wa majeshi yuko pamoja nasi; Mungu wa Yakobo ni kimbilio letu la usalama. (Selah)
Yahweh of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. (Selah)
8 Njoni, mtazame matendo ya Yahwe, uharibifu alioufanya juu ya nchi.
Come, behold the deeds of Yahweh, the destruction he has caused on earth.
9 Anaisitisha vita kwenye nchi; yeye anauvunja upinde na kuikata vipande vipande mishale; anazichoma ngao.
He makes wars cease to the ends of the earth; he breaks the bow and cuts the spear into pieces; he burns up the shields.
10 Mkae kimya na mjue kuwa mimi ni Mungu; nitainuliwa juu ya nchi.
Be quiet and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations; I will be exalted on the earth.
11 Mungu wa majeshi yuko pamoja nasi; Mungu wa Yakobo ni kimbilio letu la usalama. Serah
Yahweh of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. (Selah)
