Psalms 54

1 Save me, O God, by thy name, and judge me in thy might.

Nkulunkulu, ngisindisa ngebizo lakho, ungahlulele ngamandla akho.

2 Hear my prayer, O God. Give ear to the words of my mouth.

Nkulunkulu, zwana umkhuleko wami, ubeke indlebe emazwini omlomo wami.

3 For strangers are risen up against me, and violent men have sought after my soul. They have not set God before them. (Selah)

Ngoba abemzini bangivukele, abalolunya badinga umphefumulo wami, kababekanga uNkulunkulu phambi kwabo. (Sela)

4 Behold, God is my helper. The Lord is of those who uphold my soul.

Khangela, uNkulunkulu ungumsizi wami; iNkosi ilalabo abasekela umphefumulo wami.

5 He will requite the evil to my enemies. Destroy thou them in thy truth.

Izaphindisela ububi ezitheni zami. Baqume ngeqiniso lakho.

6 With a freewill offering I will sacrifice to thee. I will give thanks to thy name, O Jehovah, for it is good.

Ngizanikela umhlatshelo kuwe ngokukhululeka, ngizadumisa ibizo lakho, Nkosi, ngoba lihle.

7 For he has delivered me out of all trouble, and my eye has seen it upon my enemies.

Ngoba ungikhulule ekuhluphekeni konke, lelihlo lami libonile isiloyiso sami ezitheni zami.
