To the chief Musician for the sons of Korah, A Song upon Alamoth.
1 God is our refuge and strength,
A very present help in trouble.
Mungu kwetu sisi ni kimbilio na nguvu, Msaada utakaoonekana tele wakati wa mateso.
2 Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed,
And though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;
Kwa hiyo hatutaogopa ijapobadilika nchi, Ijapotetemeka milima moyoni mwa bahari.
3 Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled,
Though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Selah.
Maji yake yajapovuma na kuumuka, Ijapopepesuka milima kwa kiburi chake.
4 There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God,
The holy place of the tabernacles of the most High.
Kuna mto, vijito vyake vyaufurahisha mji wa Mungu, Patakatifu pa maskani zake Aliye juu.
5 God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved:
God shall help her, and that right early.
Mungu yu katikati yake hautatetemeshwa; Mungu atausaidia asubuhi na mapema.
6 The heathen raged, the kingdoms were moved:
He uttered his voice, the earth melted.
Mataifa yalighadhibika, falme zikataharuki; Alitoa sauti yake, nchi ikayeyuka.
7 The LORD of hosts is with us;
The God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.
Bwana wa majeshi yu pamoja nasi, Mungu wa Yakobo ni ngome yetu.
8 Come, behold the works of the LORD,
What desolations he hath made in the earth.
Njoni myatazame matendo ya Bwana, Jinsi alivyofanya ukiwa katika nchi.
9 He maketh wars to cease unto the end of the earth;
He breaketh the bow, and cutteth the spear in sunder; He burneth the chariot in the fire.
Avikomesha vita hata mwisho wa dunia; Avunja uta, akata mkuki, achoma moto magari.
10 Be still, and know that I am God:
I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.
Acheni, mjue ya kuwa Mimi ni Mungu, Nitakuzwa katika mataifa, nitakuzwa katika nchi.
11 The LORD of hosts is with us;
The God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.
Bwana wa majeshi yu pamoja nasi, Mungu wa Yakobo ni ngome yetu.
