< Psalms 46 >

1 For the end, for the sons of Core; a Psalm concerning secret things. God is our refuge and strength, a help in the afflictions that have come heavily upon us.
UNkulunkulu uyisiphephelo sethu lamandla ethu, uyatholwa elusizo kakhulu ekuhluphekeni.
2 Therefore will we not fear when the earth is troubled, and the mountains are removed into the depths of the seas.
Ngenxa yalokhu kasiyikwesaba ekuguqukeni komhlaba, lanxa izintaba zidilikela phakathi kwenlwandle.
3 Their waters have roared and been troubled, the mountains have been troubled by his might. (Pause)
Amanzi alo kawahlokome, akhaphazele, izintaba zizamazame ngokukhukhumala kwalo. (Sela)
4 The flowings of the river gladden the city of God: the Most High has sanctified his tabernacle.
Kulomfula, izifula zawo zithokozisa umuzi kaNkulunkulu, indawo engcwele yamathabhanekele oPhezukonke.
5 God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her with his countenance.
UNkulunkulu uphakathi kwawo, kawuyikunyikinywa; uNkulunkulu uzawusiza ngovivi lokusa.
6 The nations were troubled, the kingdoms tottered: he uttered his voice, the earth shook.
Izizwe ziyaxokozela, imibuso izamazame; wakhupha ilizwi lakhe, umhlaba wancibilika.
7 The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our helper. (Pause)
INkosi yamabandla ilathi, uNkulunkulu kaJakobe uyinqaba yethu. (Sela)
8 Come, and behold the works of the Lord, what wonders he has achieved on the earth.
Wozani libone imisebenzi yeNkosi, incithakalo eyenzileyo emhlabeni.
9 Putting an end to wars as for the ends of the earth; he will crush the bow, and break in pieces the weapon, and burn the bucklers with 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 nations, 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 helper.
INkosi yamabandla ilathi, uNkulunkulu kaJakobe uyinqaba yethu. (Sela)
