Psalms 59
1 To him that excelleth. Destroy not. A Psalme of David on Michtam. When Saul sent and they did watch the house to kill him. O my God, deliuer mee from mine enemies: defend me from them that rise vp against me.
Ngikhulula ezitheni zami, Nkulunkulu wami, ungimise ngaphezu kwabangivukelayo.
2 Deliuer me from the wicked doers, and saue me from the bloody men.
Ngikhulula kubenzi bobubi, ungisindise ebantwini abomele igazi.
3 For loe, they haue layd waite for my soule: the mightie men are gathered against me, not for mine offence, nor for my sinne, O Lord.
Ngoba, khangela, bacathamela umphefumulo wami; abalamandla bayangihlanganyela, kungekho siphambeko sami njalo kungekho sono sami, Nkosi.
4 They runne and prepare themselues without a fault on my part: arise therefore to assist me, and beholde.
Ngaphandle kwecala bayagijima bezilungisa. Vuka, ungisize, ubone.
5 Euen thou, O Lord God of hostes, O God of Israel awake to visit all the heathen, and be not merciful vnto all that transgresse maliciously. (Selah)
Wena-ke, Nkosi Nkulunkulu wamabandla, Nkulunkulu kaIsrayeli; vuka ukuze uhambele zonke izizwe, ungahawukeli lamunye wabakhohlisayo ebubini. (Sela)
6 They goe to and from in the euening: they barke like dogs, and goe about the citie.
Bayabuyela kusihlwa, behlaba umkhulungwane njengenja, bezingelezela umuzi.
7 Behold, they brag in their talke, and swords are in their lips: for, Who, say they, doeth heare?
Khangela, bempompoloza ngomlomo wabo, inkemba zisendebeni zabo, ngoba bathi: Ngubani ozwayo?
8 But thou, O Lord, shalt haue them in derision, and thou shalt laugh at all the heathen.
Kodwa wena, Nkosi, uzabahleka, uzaziklolodela zonke izizwe.
9 He is strong: but I will waite vpon thee: for God is my defence.
Ngenxa yamandla akhe ngizalindela kuwe, ngoba uNkulunkulu uyinqaba yami.
10 My mercifull God will preuent me: God wil let me see my desire vpon mine enemies.
UNkulunkulu womusa wami uzangandulela; uNkulunkulu uzangenza ngibone isiloyiso sami ezitheni zami.
11 Slay them not, least my people forget it: but scatter them abroad by thy power, and put them downe, O Lord our shield,
Ungazibulali, hlezi abantu bakithi bakhohlwe; uzizulazulise ngamandla akho, uzehlisele phansi, wena sihlangu sethu, Nkosi.
12 For the sinne of their mouth, and the words of their lips: and let them be taken in their pride, euen for their periurie and lies, that they speake.
Ngesono somlomo wazo, ngelizwi lendebe zazo, kazibanjwe ekuzigqajeni kwazo, langenxa yokuhlambaza lokuqamba amanga ezikukhulumayo.
13 Consume them in thy wrath: consume them that they be no more: and let them knowe that God ruleth in Iaakob, euen vnto the ends of the world. (Selah)
Uziqede ngokuthukuthela, uziqede zingabi khona, ukuze bazi ukuthi uNkulunkulu uyabusa koJakobe, kuze kube sekupheleni komhlaba. (Sela)
14 And in the euening they shall go to and from, and barke like dogs, and go about the citie.
Kababuyele-ke kusihlwa behlaba umkhulungwane njengenja, bezingelezela umuzi.
15 They shall runne here and there for meate: and surely they shall not be satisfied, though they tary all night.
Bona kabazulazulele ukudla, nxa bengasuthanga kabalale.
16 But I wil sing of thy power, and will prayse thy mercy in the morning: for thou hast bene my defence and refuge in the day of my trouble.
Kodwa mina ngizahlabelela ngamandla akho; yebo, ngizahlabelela kakhulu ekuseni ngomusa wakho; ngoba ube yinqaba yami lesiphephelo sami ngosuku lokuhlupheka kwami.
17 Vnto thee, O my Strength, wil I sing: for God is my defence, and my mercifull God.
Mandla ami, ngizahlabelela kuwe, ngoba uNkulunkulu uyinqaba yami, uNkulunkulu womusa wami.
