< Psalms 24 >
1 The earth is YHWH 's, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.
Ihubo likaDavida. Umhlaba ngokaThixo, lakho konke okukuwo, ilizwe labo bonke abahlala kulo;
2 For he hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods.
ngoba wenza isisekelo sawo phezu kolwandle wawumisa phezu kwamanzi.
3 Who shall ascend into the hill of YHWH? or who shall stand in his holy place?
Ngubani ongaqansa intaba kaThixo na? Ngubani ongema endaweni yakhe engcwele na?
4 He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully.
Ngulowo olezandla ezihlanzekileyo lenhliziyo emhlophe, ongaphakamiseli umphefumulo wakhe kunkulunkulu wamanga loba afunge ngenkohliso.
5 He shall receive the blessing from YHWH, and righteousness from the Elohim of his salvation.
Uzakwamukela isibusiso kuThixo lokukhululwa kuNkulunkulu uMsindisi wakhe.
6 This is the generation of them that seek him, that seek thy face, O Elohim of Jacob. (Selah)
Sinjalo isizukulwane salabo abamdingayo, abadinga ubuso Bakho, Oh Nkulunkulu kaJakhobe.
7 Lift up your head, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.
Phakamisani amakhanda enu, lina masango; phakamani, lina minyango yekadeni, ukuba iNkosi yenkazimulo ingene.
8 Who is this King of glory? YHWH strong and mighty, YHWH mighty in battle.
Ngubani iNkosi yenkazimulo? NguThixo oqinileyo olamandla, uThixo olamandla empini.
9 Lift up your heads, O ye gates; even lift them up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.
Phakamisani amakhanda enu, lina masango; aphakamiseni, lina minyango yekadeni, ukuba iNkosi yenkazimulo ingene.
10 Who is this King of glory? YHWH of hosts, he is the King of glory. (Selah)
Ungubani na lowo Thixo wenkazimulo? NguThixo uSomandla iNkosi yenkazimulo.
