Psalms 47

1 For the choirmaster. A Psalm of the sons of Korah. Clap your hands, all you peoples; shout unto God with a voice of triumph.

1 Pigeni makofi, enyi mataifa yote, mpigieni Mungu kelele za shangwe!

2 How awesome is the LORD Most High, the great King over all the earth!

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

3 He subdues nations beneath us, and peoples under our feet.

3 Ametiisha mataifa chini yetu watu wengi chini ya miguu yetu.

4 He chooses our inheritance for us, the pride of Jacob, whom He loves. Selah

4 Alituchagulia urithi wetu, fahari ya Yakobo, aliyempenda.

5 God has ascended amid shouts of joy, the LORD with the sound of the horn.

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

6 Sing praises to God, sing praises; sing praises to our King, sing praises!

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

7 For God is King of all the earth; sing to Him a psalm of praise.

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

8 God reigns over the nations; God is seated on His holy throne.

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

9 The nobles of the nations have assembled as the people of the God of Abraham; for the shields of the earth belong to God; He is highly exalted.

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