< Zaburi 46 >
1 Mungu kwetu ni kimbilio la usalama na nguvu, upatikanao tele wakati wa mateso.
To the chief Musician for the sons of Korah, A Song upon Alamoth. 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 shall be removed, and though the mountains shall be carried into the midst of the sea;
3 hata kama milima itatetemeka kwa vurugu ya maji. (Selah)
[Though] its waters shall roar [and] be disturbed, [though] the mountains shake with the swelling of it. (Selah)
4 Kuna mto, mikondo yake huufanya mji wa Mungu kufurahi, mahali patakatifu pa hema ya Aliye Juu.
[There is] a river, the streams of which shall make glad the city of God, the holy [place] of the tabernacles 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, [and that] right early.
6 Mataifa yalikasirika na falme zikataharuki; yeye alipaza sauti yake, na nchi ikayeyuka.
The heathen raged, the 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 refuge. (Selah)
8 Njoni, mtazame matendo ya Yahwe, uharibifu alioufanya juu ya nchi.
Come, behold the works of the LORD, what desolations he hath made in the earth.
9 Anaisitisha vita kwenye nchi; yeye anauvunja upinde na kuikata vipande vipande mishale; anazichoma ngao.
He maketh wars to cease to the end of the earth; he breaketh the bow, and cutteth the spear asunder; he burneth the chariot in the fire.
10 Mkae kimya na mjue kuwa mimi ni Mungu; nitainuliwa juu ya nchi.
Be still, and know that I [am] God: I will be exalted among the heathen, 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 refuge. (Selah)
