< Psalms 96 >
1 Sing ye 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; publish his salvation from day to day.
Hlabelani eNkosini, lidumise ibizo layo, litshumayele usindiso lwayo insuku ngensuku.
3 Declare his glory among the nations, his wondrous works among all the peoples.
Landisani udumo lwayo phakathi kwezizwe, izimangaliso zayo phakathi kwabantu bonke.
4 For Jehovah is great and exceedingly to be praised; he is terrible 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 Majesty and splendour are before him; strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.
Ubukhosi lenkazimulo kuphambi kwayo, amandla lobuhle kusendlini yayo engcwele.
7 Give unto Jehovah, ye families of peoples, give unto Jehovah glory and strength;
Inikeni iNkosi, zizukulwana zezizwe, inikeni iNkosi udumo lamandla.
8 Give unto Jehovah the glory of his name; bring an oblation and come into his courts;
Inikeni iNkosi udumo lwebizo layo; lethani umnikelo, lingene emagumeni ayo.
9 Worship Jehovah in holy splendour; tremble before him, all the earth.
Ikhonzeni iNkosi ebuhleni bobungcwele; lithuthumele phambi kwayo, mhlaba wonke.
10 Say among the nations, Jehovah reigneth! yea, the world is established, it shall not be moved; he will execute judgment upon the peoples with equity.
Tshonini phakathi kwezizwe: INkosi iyabusa. Lomhlaba umisiwe, kawuyikunyikinyeka; izabahlulela abantu ngokuqonda.
11 Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad; 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 forest 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 in his faithfulness.
phambi kweNkosi, ngoba iyeza, ngoba iyeza ukwahlulela umhlaba; izakwahlulela umhlaba ngokulunga, labantu ngeqiniso layo.
