Psalms 92
1 A psalm of a canticle on the sabbath day. It is good to give praise to the Lord: and to sing to thy name, O most High.
Kuhle ukubonga iNkosi, lokuhlabela indumiso ebizweni lakho, wena oPhezukonke;
2 To shew forth thy mercy in the morning, and thy truth in the night:
ukutshumayela uthandolomusa wakho ekuseni, lothembeko lwakho ebusuku bonke,
3 Upon an instrument of ten strings, upon the psaltery: with a canticle upon the harp.
ngechacho elilentambo ezilitshumi, langogubhu lwezintambo, ngechacho elikhala kamnandi.
4 For thou hast given me, O Lord, a delight in thy doings: and in the works of thy hands I shall rejoice.
Ngoba ungithokozisile, Nkosi, ngomsebenzi wakho; ngizamemeza ngenjabulo ngemisebenzi yezandla zakho.
5 O Lord, how great are thy works! thy thoughts are exceeding deep.
Mikhulu kangakanani imisebenzi yakho, Nkosi! Izikile kakhulu imicabango yakho.
6 The senseless man shall not know: nor will the fool understand these things.
Isiphukuphuku kasazi, lesithutha kasikuqedisisi lokhu.
7 When the wicked shall spring up as grass: and all the workers of iniquity shall appear: That they may perish for ever and ever:
Lapho ababi behluma njengotshani, labo bonke abenzi bobubi bekhahlela, kuyikuze babhujiswe kuze kube phakade.
8 But thou, O Lord, art most high for evermore.
Kodwa wena, Nkosi, uphakeme kuze kube nininini.
9 For behold thy enemies, O Lord, for behold thy enemies shall perish: and all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.
Ngoba khangela, izitha zakho, Nkosi, ngoba khangela, izitha zakho zizabhubha; bonke abenzi bobubi bazachitheka.
10 But my horn shall be exalted like that of the unicorn: and my old age in plentiful mercy.
Kodwa uzaphakamisa uphondo lwami njengolwenyathi; ngizagcotshwa ngamafutha amatsha.
11 My eye also hath looked down upon my enemies: and my ear shall hear of the downfall of the malignant that rise up against me.
Lelihlo lami lizabona isiloyiso sami ezitheni zami, indlebe zami zizakuzwa mayelana lababi abangivukelayo.
12 The just shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow up like the cedar of Libanus.
Olungileyo uzahluma njengesihlahla selala, akhule njengomsedari eLebhanoni.
13 They that are planted in the house of the Lord shall flourish in the courts of the house of our God.
Abahlanyelwe endlini yeNkosi, bazahluma emagumeni kaNkulunkulu wethu.
14 They shall still increase in a fruitful old age: and shall be well treated,
Bazabe belokhu bethela izithelo ebudaleni babo, bakhuluphale babeluhlaza,
15 That they may shew, That the Lord our God is righteous, and there is no iniquity in him.
ukutshumayela ukuthi iNkosi iqondile; ilidwala lami, njalo kakukho ukungalungi kiyo.
