Psalms 61

1 To him that excelleth on Neginoth. A Psalme of David. Heare my cry, O God: giue eare vnto my prayer.

Zwana, Nkulunkulu, ukukhala kwami, ulalele umkhuleko wami.

2 From the endes of the earth will I crye vnto thee: when mine heart is opprest, bring me vpon the rocke that is higher then I.

Ngisemkhawulweni womhlaba ngizakhala kuwe, inhliziyo yami isiphela amandla; ngikhokhelela edwaleni eliphakemeyo kulami.

3 For thou hast bene mine hope, and a strong tower against the enemie.

Ngoba ubuyisiphephelo sami, inqaba eqinileyo kuso isitha.

4 I will dwell in thy Tabernacle for euer, and my trust shall be vnder the couering of thy wings. (Selah)

Ngizahlala ethenteni lakho kuze kube nininini, ngiphephele kungubudo yempiko zakho. (Sela)

5 For thou, O God, hast heard my desires: thou hast giuen an heritage vnto those that feare thy Name.

Ngoba wena, Nkulunkulu, uzwile izifungo zami, wanginika ilifa labesaba ibizo lakho.

6 Thou shalt giue the King a long life: his yeeres shalbe as many ages.

Uzakwengeza izinsuku ezinsukwini zenkosi; iminyaka yayo izakuba njengesizukulwana lesizukulwana.

7 Hee shall dwell before God for euer: prepare mercie and faithfulnes that they may preserue him.

Kayihlale phambi kukaNkulunkulu kuze kube nininini; umise umusa leqiniso, ukuze kuyilondoloze.

8 So will I alway sing prayse vnto thy Name in performing dayly my vowes.

Ngalokho ngizahlabela indumiso ebizweni lakho kuze kube nininini, ukuze ngigcwalise izifungo zami insuku ngensuku.
