Psalms 75
1 For the Leader; Al-tashheth. A Psalm of Asaph, a Song. We give thanks unto Thee, O God, we give thanks, and Thy name is near; men tell of Thy wondrous works.
Kumqondisi wokuhlabela. Iculo elithi, “Ungabhidlizi.” Ihubo lika-Asafi. Ingoma. Siletha ukubonga kuwe, Oh Nkulunkulu, siletha ukubonga, ngoba iBizo lakho liseduze; abantu bakhuluma ngemisebenzi Yakho emangalisayo.
2 'When I take the appointed time, I Myself will judge with equity.
Wena uthi, “Ngikhetha isikhathi esimisiweyo; yimi engahlulela okuqondileyo.
3 When the earth and all the inhabitants thereof are dissolved, I Myself establish the pillars of it.' (Selah)
Nxa umhlaba kanye labantu bawo kuzamazama, yimi engizibamba ziqine izisekelo zawo.
4 I say unto the arrogant: 'Deal not arrogantly'; and to the wicked: 'Lift not up the horn.'
Ngithi kwabayiziqholo, ‘Lingabe lisazincoma,’ ngithi kwababi, ‘Lingaziphakamisi impondo zenu.
5 Lift not up your horn on high; speak not insolence with a haughty neck.
Lingaphakamiseli uphondo lwenu phezulu ezulwini; lingakhulumi liziqhenya.’”
6 For neither from the east, nor from the west, nor yet from the wilderness, cometh lifting up.
Kakho ovela empumalanga loba entshonalanga, kumbe ovela enkangala ongaphakamisa umuntu.
7 For God is judge; He putteth down one, and lifteth up another.
Kodwa nguNkulunkulu owahlulelayo: uyamehlisa omunye, amkhweze omunye.
8 For in the hand of the LORD there is a cup, with foaming wine, full of mixture, and He poureth out of the same; surely the dregs thereof, all the wicked of the earth shall drain them, and drink them.
Esandleni sikaThixo kukhona inkezo egcwele iwayini eliphuphumayo elixutshwe ngeziyoliso; uyalithulula, kuthi bonke ababi bomhlaba balinathe kanye lenzece zalo.
9 But as for me, I will declare for ever, I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.
Kodwa mina ngizamemezela lokhu lanini; ngizahlabelela indumiso kuNkulunkulu kaJakhobe,
10 All the horns of the wicked also will I cut off; but the horns of the righteous shall be lifted up.
yena othi, “Ngizazithulisa zonke impondo zababi, kodwa impondo zabalungileyo zizaphakanyiswa.”
