Psalms 29

1 A Psalm of David, at the completion of the tabernacle. Bring to the Lord, O sons of God, bring to the Lord the sons of rams.

Ihubo likaDavida. Mupheni uThixo, lina ziphakanyiswa, mupheni uThixo ubukhosi lamandla.

2 Bring to the Lord, glory and honor. Bring to the Lord, glory for his name. Adore the Lord in his holy court.

Mupheni uThixo ubukhosi obufanele ibizo lakhe; mkhonzeni uThixo ekukhazimuleni kobungcwele bakhe.

3 The voice of the Lord is over the waters. The God of majesty has thundered. The Lord is over many waters.

Ilizwi likaThixo liyazulazula phezu kwamanzi; uNkulunkulu wenkazimulo uyandindiza, uThixo uyandindiza phezu kwamanzi amanengi.

4 The voice of the Lord is in virtue. The voice of the Lord is in magnificence.

Ilizwi likaThixo lilamandla; ilizwi likaThixo lilobukhosi.

5 The voice of the Lord shatters the cedars. And the Lord will shatter the cedars of Lebanon.

Ilizwi likaThixo lephula imisedari; uThixo uyiqamula ibe yizicucu imisedari yaseLebhanoni.

6 And it will break them into pieces, like a calf of Lebanon, and in the same way as the beloved son of the single-horned beast.

Wenza iLebhanoni itshakale njengethole, iSiriyoni njengeguqa lenyathi.

7 The voice of the Lord cuts through the flame of fire.

Ilizwi likaThixo litshaya ngezikhatha zombane.

8 The voice of the Lord shakes the desert. And the Lord will quake the desert of Kadesh.

Ilizwi likaThixo liyayizamazamisa inkangala; uThixo uyayizamazamisa iNkangala yaseKhadeshi.

9 The voice of the Lord is preparing the stags, and he will reveal the dense woods. And in his temple, all will speak his glory.

Ilizwi likaThixo liyayitshila imikusu likhwebule izihlahla amagusu asale eze. Njalo ethempelini lakhe bonke bazamemeza bathi, “Inkazimulo!”

10 The Lord causes the great flood to dwell. And the Lord will sit as King in eternity.

UThixo uhlezi ebukhosini phezu kwesikhukhula; uThixo unguMbusi lanininini.

11 The Lord will give virtue to his people. The Lord will bless his people in peace.

UThixo unika amandla ebantwini bakhe; uThixo ubusisa abantu bakhe ngokuthula.
