Psalms 29

1 A Psalm of David. Ascribe to the LORD, O heavenly beings, ascribe to the LORD glory and strength.

1 Mpeni Bwana, enyi mashujaa, mpeni Bwana utukufu na nguvu.

2 Ascribe to the LORD the glory due His name; worship the LORD in the splendor of His holiness.

2 Mpeni Bwana utukufu unaostahili jina lake; mwabuduni Bwana katika uzuri wa utakatifu wake.

3 The voice of the LORD is over the waters; the God of glory thunders; the LORD is heard over many waters.

3 Sauti ya Bwana iko juu ya maji; Mungu wa utukufu hupiga radi, Bwana hupiga radi juu ya maji makuu.

4 The voice of the LORD is powerful; the voice of the LORD is majestic.

4 Sauti ya Bwana ina nguvu; sauti ya Bwana ni tukufu.

5 The voice of the LORD breaks the cedars; the LORD shatters the cedars of Lebanon.

5 Sauti ya Bwana huvunja mierezi; Bwana huvunja vipande vipande mierezi ya Lebanoni.

6 He makes Lebanon skip like a calf, and Sirion like a young wild ox.

6 Hufanya Lebanoni irukaruke kama ndama, Sirioni urukaruke kama mwana nyati.

7 The voice of the LORD strikes with flames of fire.

7 Sauti ya Bwana hupiga kwa miali ya umeme wa radi.

8 The voice of the LORD shakes the wilderness; the LORD shakes the Wilderness of Kadesh.

8 Sauti ya Bwana hutikisa jangwa; Bwana hutikisa Jangwa la Kadeshi.

9 The voice of the LORD twists the oaks and strips the forests bare. And in His temple all cry, “Glory!”

9 Sauti ya Bwana huzalisha ayala, na huuacha msitu wazi. Hekaluni mwake wote wasema, “Utukufu!”

10 The LORD sits enthroned over the flood; the LORD is enthroned as King forever.

10 Bwana huketi akiwa ametawazwa juu ya gharika; Bwana ametawazwa kuwa Mfalme milele.

11 The LORD gives His people strength; the LORD blesses His people with peace.

11 Bwana huwapa watu wake nguvu; Bwana huwabariki watu wake kwa kuwapa amani.
