Psalms 6

1 To the chief Musician. On stringed instruments, upon Sheminith. A Psalm of David. Jehovah, rebuke me not in thine anger, and chasten me not in thy hot displeasure.

Kumqondisi wokuhlabela. Ngeleziginci. Kulandelwa isheminithi. Ihubo likaDavida. Oh Thixo ungangikhalimeli ngolaka lwakho njalo ungangitshayi uthukuthele.

2 Be gracious unto me, Jehovah, for I am withered; Jehovah, heal me, for my bones tremble.

Woba lomusa kimi, Thixo, ngoba ngiphela amandla; Oh Thixo, ngisilisa, ngoba amathambo ami alobuhlungu.

3 And my soul trembleth exceedingly: and thou, Jehovah, till how long?

Umoya wami udabukile. Koze kube nini, Oh Thixo, koze kube nini?

4 Return, Jehovah, free my soul; save me for thy loving-kindness' sake.

Phenduka, Oh Thixo, ungikhulule; ngihlenga ngenxa yothando lwakho olungehlulekiyo.

5 For in death there is no remembrance of thee; in Sheol who shall give thanks unto thee? (Sheol h7585)

Kakho okukhumbulayo nxa esefile. Ngubani okukhonzayo esengcwabeni lakhe? (Sheol h7585)

6 I am wearied with my groaning; all the night make I my bed to swim; I dissolve my couch with my tears.

Ngikhathele ngokububula; ubusuku bonke umbheda wami uba manzi te ngikhala umendlalo wami ngiwugcwalise ngezinyembezi.

7 Mine eye wasteth away through grief; it hath grown old because of all mine oppressors.

Amehlo ami ayafiphala ngenxa yosizi; ayanqundeka ngenxa yazo zonke izitha zami.

8 Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity; for Jehovah hath heard the voice of my weeping.

Xekani kimi lina lonke elenza okubi, ngoba uThixo usekuzwile ukulila kwami.

9 Jehovah hath heard my supplication; Jehovah receiveth my prayer.

UThixo usekuzwile ukukhala kwami ngicela umusa; UThixo uyawamukela umkhuleko wami.

10 All mine enemies shall be ashamed and tremble exceedingly; they will turn, they will be ashamed suddenly.

Zonke izitha zami zizayangeka zidaniswe; zizatshibilika zibuyele emuva masinyane sezilehlazo.
