Zaburi 47

1 Pigeni makofi, enyi watu wote; mpigieni Mungu kelele za ushindi.

“For the leader of the music. A psalm of the sons of Korah.” O clap your hands, all ye nations! Shout unto God with the voice of triumph!

2 Kwa maana Yahwe Aliye Juu anatisha; ni Mfalme mkuu dunia yote.

For terrible is Jehovah, the Most High, The great king over all the earth.

3 Yeye anawatiisha chini yetu na mataifa chini ya miguu yetu.

He hath subdued nations under us, And kingdoms under our feet;

4 Yeye huchagua urithi kwa ajili yetu, utukufu wa Yakobo ambaye alimpenda. Serah

He hath chosen for us an inheritance, The glory of Jacob, whom he loved. (Pause)

5 Mungu ameinuliwa juu kwa shangwe, Kwa mbiu ya shangwe Yahwe yu juu.

God goeth up with a shout; Jehovah with the sound of the trumpet.

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

Sing praises to God, sing praises! Sing praises to our king, sing praises!

7 Kwa maana Mungu ni Mfalme duniani kote; mwimbieni mkiwa na uelewa.

For God is king of all the earth; Sing to him hymns of praise!

8 Mungu anatawala mataifa yote; Mungu hukaa kwenye kiti cha enzi.

God reigneth over the nations; God sitteth upon his holy throne.

9 Wakuu wa watu wamekusanyika pamoja kwa watu wa Mungu wa Ibrahimu; kwa kuwa ngao za duniani ni za Mungu; yeye ameinuliwa juu sana.

The princes of the nations gather themselves together To the people of the God of Abraham; For the mighty of the earth belong to God; He is supremely exalted.
