Psalms 47

1 For the Leader; a Psalm for the sons of Korah. O clap your hands, all ye peoples; shout unto God with the voice of triumph.

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

2 For the LORD is most high, awful; a great King over all the earth.

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

3 He subdueth peoples under us, and nations under our feet.

Ametiisha mataifa chini yetu watu wengi chini ya miguu yetu.

4 He chooseth our inheritance for us, the pride of Jacob whom He loveth. (Selah)

Alituchagulia urithi wetu, fahari ya Yakobo, aliyempenda.

5 God is gone up amidst shouting, the LORD amidst the sound of the horn.

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

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

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

7 For God is the King of all the earth; sing ye praises in a skilful song.

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

8 God reigneth over the nations; God sitteth upon His holy throne.

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

9 The princes of the peoples are gathered together, the people of the God of Abraham; for unto God belong the shields of the earth; He is greatly exalted.

Wakuu wa mataifa wanakusanyika kama watu wa Mungu wa Abrahamu, kwa kuwa wafalme wa dunia ni mali ya Mungu; yeye ametukuka sana.
