< Psalms 99 >
1 The LORD reigns; let the nations tremble! He is enthroned above the cherubim; let the earth quake!
INkosi iyabusa; abantu kabathuthumele; ihlezi phakathi kwamakherubhi; umhlaba kawuzamazame.
2 Great is the LORD in Zion; He is exalted above all the peoples.
INkosi yinkulu eZiyoni; njalo iphakeme phezu kwezizwe zonke.
3 Let them praise Your great and awesome name— He is holy!
Kazidumise ibizo lakho elikhulu lelesabekayo; lingcwele lona.
4 The mighty King loves justice. You have established equity; You have exercised justice and righteousness in Jacob.
Lamandla eNkosi athanda isahlulelo; wena umisa ukuqonda; wena wenza isahlulelo lokulunga kuJakobe.
5 Exalt the LORD our God, and worship at His footstool; He is holy!
Phakamisani iNkosi uNkulunkulu wethu, likhonze esenabelweni sezinyawo zayo. Ingcwele yona.
6 Moses and Aaron were among His priests; Samuel was among those who called on His name. They called to the LORD and He answered.
UMozisi loAroni phakathi kwabapristi bayo, loSamuweli phakathi kwababiza ibizo layo, babiza iNkosi, yona yasibaphendula.
7 He spoke to them from the pillar of cloud; they kept His decrees and the statutes He gave them.
Yakhuluma labo iphakathi kwensika yeyezi; bagcina izifakazelo zayo lesimiso eyabanika sona.
8 O LORD our God, You answered them. You were a forgiving God to them, yet an avenger of their misdeeds.
Nkosi Nkulunkulu wethu, wena wabaphendula; waba nguNkulunkulu obathethelelayo, lanxa uphindisela ezenzweni zabo.
9 Exalt the LORD our God and worship at His holy mountain, for the LORD our God is holy.
Phakamisani iNkosi uNkulunkulu wethu, likhonze entabeni yayo engcwele; ngoba iNkosi uNkulunkulu wethu ingcwele.
