< Psalms 96 >
1 Oh sing unto Jehovah a new song: Sing unto Jehovah, all the earth.
Hlabelani eNkosini ingoma entsha; hlabelelani eNkosini, mhlaba wonke.
2 Sing unto Jehovah, bless his name; Show forth his salvation from day to day.
Hlabelani eNkosini, lidumise ibizo layo, litshumayele usindiso lwayo insuku ngensuku.
3 Declare his glory among the nations, His marvellous works among all the peoples.
Landisani udumo lwayo phakathi kwezizwe, izimangaliso zayo phakathi kwabantu bonke.
4 For great is Jehovah, and greatly to be praised: He is to be feared above all gods.
Ngoba yinkulu iNkosi, ifanele ukudunyiswa kakhulu, yona iyesabeka phezu kwabonkulunkulu bonke.
5 For all the gods of the peoples are idols; But Jehovah made the heavens.
Ngoba bonke onkulunkulu bezizwe bayizithombe; kodwa iNkosi yenza amazulu.
6 Honor and majesty are before him: Strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.
Ubukhosi lenkazimulo kuphambi kwayo, amandla lobuhle kusendlini yayo engcwele.
7 Ascribe unto Jehovah, ye kindreds of the peoples, Ascribe unto Jehovah glory and strength.
Inikeni iNkosi, zizukulwana zezizwe, inikeni iNkosi udumo lamandla.
8 Ascribe unto Jehovah the glory due unto his name: Bring an offering, and come into his courts.
Inikeni iNkosi udumo lwebizo layo; lethani umnikelo, lingene emagumeni ayo.
9 Oh worship Jehovah in holy array: Tremble before him, all the earth.
Ikhonzeni iNkosi ebuhleni bobungcwele; lithuthumele phambi kwayo, mhlaba wonke.
10 Say among the nations, Jehovah reigneth: The world also is established that it cannot be moved: He will judge the peoples with equity.
Tshonini phakathi kwezizwe: INkosi iyabusa. Lomhlaba umisiwe, kawuyikunyikinyeka; izabahlulela abantu ngokuqonda.
11 Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice; Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof;
Kawathokoze amazulu, lomhlaba ujabule; kaluhlokome ulwandle lokugcwala kwalo.
12 Let the field exult, and all that is therein; Then shall all the trees of the wood sing for joy
Iganga kalithabe lakho konke okukulo. Khona izihlahla zonke zegusu zizahlabela ngentokozo
13 Before Jehovah; for he cometh, For he cometh to judge the earth: He will judge the world with righteousness, And the peoples with his truth.
phambi kweNkosi, ngoba iyeza, ngoba iyeza ukwahlulela umhlaba; izakwahlulela umhlaba ngokulunga, labantu ngeqiniso layo.
