< Psalms 76 >
1 To the chief Musician on Neginoth, A Psalm [or] Song of Asaph. In Judah [is] God known: his name [is] great in Israel.
Kumqondisi wokuhlabela. Kusetshenziswa iziginci. Ihubo lika-Asafi. Ingoma. Uyaziwa uNkulunkulu koJuda ibizo lakhe likhulu ko-Israyeli.
2 In Salem also is his tabernacle, and his dwelling place in Zion.
Ithente lakhe liseSalema, indawo yakhe yokuhlala iseZiyoni.
3 There brake he the arrows of the bow, the shield, and the sword, and the battle. (Selah)
Khonapho wayephula imitshoko ebenyezelayo, izihlangu lezinkemba, izikhali zempi.
4 Thou [art] more glorious [and] excellent than the mountains of prey.
Uyakhazimula ngokukhanya, ulobukhosi obudlula izintaba ezigcwele izinyamazana.
5 The stouthearted are spoiled, they have slept their sleep: and none of the men of might have found their hands.
Amadoda alezibindi alele ucaca aphangiwe, alele ubuthongo bawo bokucina; kakho loyedwa wamabutho lawo ongaphakamisa izandla zakhe.
6 At thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, both the chariot and horse are cast into a dead sleep.
Uthi ungakhwaza wena, Oh Nkulunkulu kaJakhobe, ibhiza lenqola kuhle kulale phansi kuthi zwi.
7 Thou, [even] thou, [art] to be feared: and who may stand in thy sight when once thou art angry?
Wena wedwa uyesatshwa. Ngubani ongema phambi kwakho nxa usuthukuthele?
8 Thou didst cause judgment to be heard from heaven; the earth feared, and was still,
Wathi usezulwini wehlisa ukwahlulela kwakho, ilizwe lesaba lathula,
9 When God arose to judgment, to save all the meek of the earth. (Selah)
lapho wena, Oh Nkulunkulu, waphakama ukwahlulela, ukusindisa bonke abahluphekayo belizwe.
10 Surely the wrath of man shall praise thee: the remainder of wrath shalt thou restrain.
Ngempela ulaka lwakho ebantwini lukulethela indumiso, kuthi bonke abasilileyo elakeni lwakho bathotshiswe.
11 Vow, and pay unto the LORD your God: let all that be round about him bring presents unto him that ought to be feared.
Yenzani izifungo kuThixo uNkulunkulu wenu lizigcwalise; akuthi wonke amazwe abomakhelwana alethe izipho kuye Yedwa omele esatshwe.
12 He shall cut off the spirit of princes: [he is] terrible to the kings of the earth.
Uyephula ubuqholo bababusi; uyesatshwa ngamakhosi omhlaba.
