< Psalms 66 >

1 To him that excelleth. A song or Psalme. Rejoice in God, all ye inhabitants of the earth.
Mhubeleni ngentokozo uNkulunkulu, mhlaba wonke.
2 Sing forth the glory of his name: make his praise glorious.
Hlabelani ubukhosi bebizo lakhe, lenze udumo lwakhe lube lenkazimulo.
3 Say vnto God, Howe terrible art thou in thy workes! through the greatnesse of thy power shall thine enemies be in subiection vnto thee.
Tshonini kuNkulunkulu lithi: Yeka ukwesabeka kwezenzo zakho! Ngenxa yobukhulu bamandla akho izitha zakho zizakuthobela ngenkohliso.
4 All the worlde shall worship thee, and sing vnto thee, euen sing of thy Name. (Selah)
Umhlaba wonke uzakukhonza, uhlabelele kuwe, bahlabelele ibizo lakho. (Sela)
5 Come and beholde the workes of God: he is terrible in his doing towarde the sonnes of men.
Wozani libone izenzo zikaNkulunkulu; uyesabeka ekwenzeni ebantwaneni babantu.
6 He hath turned the Sea into drie land: they passe through the riuer on foote: there did we reioyce in him.
Ulwandle waluphendula lwaba ngumhlaba owomileyo; bachapha umfula ngenyawo. Lapho sathokoza kuye.
7 He ruleth the worlde with his power: his eyes beholde the nations: the rebellious shall not exalt them selues. (Selah)
Ubusa ngamandla akhe kuze kube nininini; amehlo akhe ayazilinda izizwe; abalenkani kabangaziphakamisi. (Sela)
8 Prayse our God, ye people, and make the voyce of his prayse to be heard.
Bongani uNkulunkulu, zizwe, lizwakalise ilizwi lendumiso yakhe.
9 Which holdeth our soules in life, and suffereth not our feete to slippe.
Obeka umphefumulo wethu empilweni, ongavumanga ukuthi unyawo lwethu lutshelele.
10 For thou, O God, hast proued vs, thou hast tryed vs as siluer is tryed.
Ngoba usihlolile, Nkulunkulu, wasicenga njengokucengwa kwesiliva.
11 Thou hast brought vs into the snare, and layed a strait chaine vpon our loynes.
Wasingenisa embuleni, wabeka inhlupheko enkalweni zethu.
12 Thou hast caused men to ryde ouer our heads: we went into fire and into water, but thou broughtest vs out into a welthie place.
Wenze abantu bagade phezu kwekhanda lethu; sadabula emlilweni lasemanzini, kodwa wasikhuphela endaweni elokunengi.
13 I will go into thine House with burnt offrings, and will pay thee my vowes,
Ngizangena endlini yakho ngileminikelo yokutshiswa; ngizakhokha kuwe izifungo zami,
14 Which my lippes haue promised, and my mouth hath spoken in mine affliction.
indebe zami eziziphumisileyo, lomlomo wami ozikhulumileyo ngisekuhluphekeni.
15 I will offer vnto thee the burnt offerings of fat rammes with incense: I will prepare bullocks and goates. (Selah)
Ngizanikela kuwe iminikelo yokutshiswa yezinonileyo, kanye lempepha yezinqama; ngizanikela inkomo kanye lezimpongo. (Sela)
16 Come and hearken, all ye that feare God, and I will tell you what he hath done to my soule.
Wozani lizwe lina lonke elimesabayo uNkulunkulu, ngizalandisa akwenzele umphefumulo wami.
17 I called vnto him with my mouth, and he was exalted with my tongue.
Ngakhala kuye ngomlomo wami, waphakanyiswa ngaphansi kolimi lwami.
18 If I regard wickednesse in mine heart, the Lord will not heare me.
Uba benginanze ububi enhliziyweni yami, ibingayikuzwa iNkosi.
19 But God hath heard me, and considered the voyce of my prayer.
Qotho uNkulunkulu uzwile, walalela ilizwi lomkhuleko wami.
20 Praysed be God, which hath not put backe my prayer, nor his mercie from me.
Kabongwe uNkulunkulu, ongabuyiselanga emuva umkhuleko wami, kumbe umusa wakhe kimi.
