Psalms 6

1 O LORD, rebuke me not in your anger, neither chasten me in your hot displeasure.

Kumqondisi wokuhlabela. Ngeleziginci. Kulandelwa isheminithi. Ihubo likaDavida. Oh Thixo ungangikhalimeli ngolaka lwakho njalo ungangitshayi uthukuthele.

2 Have mercy on me, O LORD; for I am weak: O LORD, heal me; for my bones are vexed.

Woba lomusa kimi, Thixo, ngoba ngiphela amandla; Oh Thixo, ngisilisa, ngoba amathambo ami alobuhlungu.

3 My soul is also sore vexed: but you, O LORD, how long?

Umoya wami udabukile. Koze kube nini, Oh Thixo, koze kube nini?

4 Return, O LORD, deliver my soul: oh save me for your mercies’ sake.

Phenduka, Oh Thixo, ungikhulule; ngihlenga ngenxa yothando lwakho olungehlulekiyo.

5 For in death there is no remembrance of you: in the grave who shall give you thanks? (Sheol h7585)

Kakho okukhumbulayo nxa esefile. Ngubani okukhonzayo esengcwabeni lakhe? (Sheol h7585)

6 I am weary with my groaning; all the night make I my bed to swim; I water my couch with my tears.

Ngikhathele ngokububula; ubusuku bonke umbheda wami uba manzi te ngikhala umendlalo wami ngiwugcwalise ngezinyembezi.

7 My eye is consumed because of grief; it waxes old because of all my enemies.

Amehlo ami ayafiphala ngenxa yosizi; ayanqundeka ngenxa yazo zonke izitha zami.

8 Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity; for the LORD has heard the voice of my weeping.

Xekani kimi lina lonke elenza okubi, ngoba uThixo usekuzwile ukulila kwami.

9 The LORD has heard my supplication; the LORD will receive my prayer.

UThixo usekuzwile ukukhala kwami ngicela umusa; UThixo uyawamukela umkhuleko wami.

10 Let all my enemies be ashamed and sore vexed: let them return and be ashamed suddenly.

Zonke izitha zami zizayangeka zidaniswe; zizatshibilika zibuyele emuva masinyane sezilehlazo.
