< Psalms 46 >

1 God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
UNkulunkulu uyisiphephelo sethu lamandla ethu, uyatholwa elusizo kakhulu ekuhluphekeni.
2 Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the middle of the sea;
Ngenxa yalokhu kasiyikwesaba ekuguqukeni komhlaba, lanxa izintaba zidilikela phakathi kwenlwandle.
3 Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. (Selah)
Amanzi alo kawahlokome, akhaphazele, izintaba zizamazame ngokukhukhumala kwalo. (Sela)
4 There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacles of the most High.
Kulomfula, izifula zawo zithokozisa umuzi kaNkulunkulu, indawo engcwele yamathabhanekele oPhezukonke.
5 God is in the middle of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her, and that right early.
UNkulunkulu uphakathi kwawo, kawuyikunyikinywa; uNkulunkulu uzawusiza ngovivi lokusa.
6 The heathen raged, the kingdoms were moved: he uttered his voice, the earth melted.
Izizwe ziyaxokozela, imibuso izamazame; wakhupha ilizwi lakhe, umhlaba wancibilika.
7 The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. (Selah)
INkosi yamabandla ilathi, uNkulunkulu kaJakobe uyinqaba yethu. (Sela)
8 Come, behold the works of the LORD, what desolations he has made in the earth.
Wozani libone imisebenzi yeNkosi, incithakalo eyenzileyo emhlabeni.
9 He makes wars to cease to the end of the earth; he breaks the bow, and cuts the spear in sunder; he burns the chariot in the fire.
Yenza izimpi ziphele kuze kube semkhawulweni womhlaba; yephula idandili, iqumaqume umkhonto, itshise izinqola emlilweni.
10 Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.
Thulani, lazi ukuthi mina nginguNkulunkulu, ngizaphakanyiswa phakathi kwezizwe, ngiphakanyiswe emhlabeni.
11 The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. (Selah)
INkosi yamabandla ilathi, uNkulunkulu kaJakobe uyinqaba yethu. (Sela)
