(A psalm by the clan of Korah and for the music leader.)
God Rules the Nations
1 All of you nations,
clap your hands and shout
joyful praises to God.
2 The Lord Most High is fearsome,
the ruler of all the earth.
3 God has put every nation
under our power,
4 and he chose for us the land
that was the pride of Jacob,
his favorite.
5 God goes up to his throne,
as people shout
and trumpets blast.
6 Sing praises to God our King,
7 the ruler of all the earth!
Praise God with songs.
8 God rules the nations
from his sacred throne.
9 Their leaders come together
and are now the people
of Abraham's God.
All rulers on earth
surrender their weapons,
and God is greatly praised!
Ndaulo ye Ndzimu mu zwitjaba
1 Lobani phande, imwi bathu mose;
Mimililani Ndzimu mumbile pezhugwi njimbo dze shatho.
2 Ngobe Yahwe, ibo ba pezhugwizhugwi banotjisa,
ndi mambo nkulu we shango yose.
3 Bakathama kuti bathu babe pasi kwedu,
ne zwitjaba bakazwiyisa kusi kwe makumbo edu.
4 Ndizo bakatishalila lukata,
ndiko shatha kwa Jakubo iye wabanoda.
5 Ndzimu wayenda pezhugwi nge mpululu,
ibo Yahwe bayenda nge nlidzo we lunyanga;
6 Mbilani Ndzimu njimbo dze gudzo, imbani njimbo dze gudzo!
Mbilani mambo njimbo dze gudzo, imbani njimbo dze gudzo!
7 Ndzimu ndiwo mambo we shango yose,
mu nkudze nge njimbo.
8 Ndzimu unobusa zwitjaba;
Ndzimu ugele mu tjigalo tjawo tjakayengemala tje bushe.
9 Bakololo be bushe banokubungana bali bathu
be Ndzimu wa Abhurahama.
Zwivikili zwe shango ngezwe Ndzimu;
bakamilidzigwa pezhugwi tjoselele.
