Psalms 36
1 To the chief Musician. [A Psalm] of the servant of Jehovah; of David. The transgression of the wicked uttereth within my heart, There is no fear of God before his eyes.
Kumqondisi wokuhlabela. ElikaDavida inceku kaThixo. Ngilenkinga enhliziyweni yami mayelana lokuxhwala kwesigangi: Kakukho ukwesaba uNkulunkulu engqondweni yaso.
2 For he flattereth himself in his own eyes, [even] when his iniquity is found to be hateful.
Phela kweyaso ingqondo siyazikhohlisa size sehluleke ukubona kumbe ukuzonda isono saso.
3 The words of his mouth are wickedness and deceit: he hath left off to be wise, to do good.
Amazwi omlomo waso abolile alenkohliso; kasiselakho ukuhlakanipha lokulunga.
4 He deviseth wickedness up on his bed; he setteth himself in a way that is not good: he abhorreth not evil.
Kwala loba silele siceba ububi; sizinikela endleleni yobubi njalo kasikulahli okubi.
5 Jehovah, thy loving-kindness is in the heavens, and thy faithfulness [reacheth] unto the clouds.
Uthando Lwakho, Thixo, lufika emazulwini, ukuthembeka Kwakho esibhakabhakeni.
6 Thy righteousness is like the high mountains; thy judgments are a great deep: thou, Jehovah, preservest man and beast.
Ukulunga Kwakho kunjengezintaba ezesabekayo, ukwahlulela kuhle Kwakho njengolwandle olukhulu. Oh Thixo, uyamlondoloza umuntu kanye lenyamazana.
7 How precious is thy loving-kindness, O God! So the sons of men take refuge under the shadow of thy wings.
Luligugu elinganani uthando Lwakho olungaphuthiyo, Oh Nkulunkulu! Bonke abantu bazuza isiphephelo emthunzini wamaphiko Akho.
8 They shall be abundantly satisfied with the fatness of thy house; and thou wilt make them drink of the river of thy pleasures.
Bayazitika ngokudla okunengi endlini Yakho; ubapha okunathwayo okwemfuleni wakho wokuthokoza.
9 For with thee is the fountain of life: in thy light shall we see light.
Ngoba kuwe kulomthombo wokuphila; kokwakho ukukhanya sibona ukukhanya.
10 Continue thy loving-kindness unto them that know thee, and thy righteousness to the upright in heart;
Qhubeka ngothando Lwakho kulabo abakwaziyo, ukuluga Kwakho kwabaqotho enhliziyweni.
11 Let not the foot of pride come against me, and let not the hand of the wicked drive me away.
Sengathi unyawo lwabazazisayo lungehluleka ukunginyathela, loba ukuthi isandla sababi singangixotshi.
12 There are the workers of iniquity fallen: they are cast down, and are not able to rise.
Bonani-ke ukuthi izigangi sezithe daca ziwiselwe phansi, kazisavuki futhi!
