Psalms 62

1 My soul waits in silence for God only. From him is my salvation.

Ngoqotho, umphefumulo wami uyamlindela uNkulunkulu ngokuthula; luvela kuye usindiso lwami.

2 He only is my rock and my salvation, my high tower. I shall not be greatly moved.

Nguye kuphela olidwala lami losindiso lwami, inqaba yami; kangiyikunyikinywa kakhulu.

3 How long will ye set upon a man, that ye may kill, all of you, like a leaning wall, like a tottering fence?

Koze kube nini liceba ububi limelene lomuntu? Lonke lizabulawa, njengomduli otshekileyo, uthango oludilikayo.

4 They only consult to thrust him down from his dignity. They delight in lies. They bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly. (Selah)

Baceba kuphela ukumwisa ekuphakameni kwakhe, bathokoza ngamanga; ngomlomo wabo bayabusisa, kodwa ngaphakathi kwabo bayathuka. (Sela)

5 My soul, wait thou in silence for God only, for my expectation is from him.

Mphefumulo wami, lindela ngokuthula kuNkulunkulu kuphela; ngoba ithemba lami livela kuye.

6 He only is my rock and my salvation, my high tower. I shall not be moved.

Nguye kuphela olidwala lami losindiso lwami, inqaba yami; kangiyikunyikinywa.

7 With God is my salvation and my glory. The rock of my strength, and my refuge, is in God.

LukuNkulunkulu usindiso lwami lodumo lwami, idwala lamandla ami, isiphephelo sami, kukuNkulunkulu.

8 Trust in him at all times, ye people. Pour out your heart before him. God is a refuge for us. (Selah)

Thembani kuye isikhathi sonke, lina bantu; lithulule inhliziyo yenu phambi kwakhe; uNkulunkulu uyisiphephelo sethu. (Sela)

9 Surely men of low degree are vanity, and men of high degree are a lie. In the balances they will go up. They are together lighter than vanity.

Ngoqotho, abantukazana bayize, izikhulu ziyinkohliso; esilinganisweni balula kuleze bebonke.

10 Trust not in oppression, and become not vain in robbery. If riches increase, set not your heart on it.

Lingathembeli embandezelweni, lingamisi ithemba eliyize ekuphangeni; uba inotho isanda, lingabeki inhliziyo kuyo.

11 God has spoken once, twice I have heard this, that power belongs to God.

UNkulunkulu ukhulumile kwaba kanye, ngikuzwile lokhu kabili, ukuthi amandla angakaNkulunkulu.

12 Also to thee, O Lord, belongs loving kindness, for thou render to every man according to his work.

Lomusa ungowakho, Nkosi; ngoba wena uyamphindisela wonke umuntu njengokomsebenzi wakhe.
