< Psalms 92 >

1 A Psalm of a Song for the Sabbath-day. It is a good thing to give thanks to the Lord, and to sing praises to your name, O you Most High;
Ihubo. Ingoma. Elosuku lweSabatha. Kuhle ukudumisa uThixo lokuhlabelela ebizweni lakho, wena oPhezukonke,
2 to proclaim your mercy in the morning, and your truth by night,
ukumemezela uthando lwakho ekuseni lokuthembeka kwakho ebusuku,
3 on a lute of ten strings, with a song on the harp.
ukutshaya iziginci ngomhubhe wezintambo ezilitshumi lemvungamo emnandi yechacho.
4 For you, O Lord, have made me glad with your work: and in the operations of your hands will I exult.
Ngoba uyangijabulisa ngezenzo zakho, Oh Thixo; ngihlala ngentokozo ngomsebenzi wezandla zakho.
5 How have your works been magnified, O Lord! your thoughts are very deep.
Mikhulu kangaka imisebenzi yakho, Oh Thixo, izikile imicabango yakho!
6 A foolish man will not know, and a senseless man will not understand this.
Umuntu ongelangqondo akazi, iziwula kazizwisisi,
7 When the sinners spring up as the grass, and all the workers of iniquity have watched; [it is] that they may be utterly destroyed for ever.
ukuthi loba ababi bemila njengotshani lezigangi zonke ziphumelela, zizabhujiswa nini lanini.
8 But you, O Lord, are most high for ever.
Kodwa wena Thixo, uphakeme laphakade.
9 For, behold, your enemies shall perish; and all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.
Ngoba ngempela izitha zakho, Oh Thixo, ngempela izitha zakho zizabhubha; zonke izigangi zizachithizwa.
10 But my horn shall be exalted [as the horn] of a unicorn; and mine old age with rich mercy.
Uluphakamisile uphondo lwami njengolwenyathi; ngagcotshwa ngamakha amnandi.
11 And mine eye has seen mine enemies, and mine ear shall hear the wicked that rise up against me.
Amehlo ami abonile ukwehlulwa kwezitha zami; indlebe zami zizwile ngokuchithizwa kwezitha zami ezimbi.
12 The righteous shall flourish as a palm tree: he shall be increased as the cedar in Libanus.
Abalungileyo bazaqhela njengesihlahla selala, bazakhula njengomsedari waseLebhanoni;
13 They that are planted in the house of the Lord shall flourish in the courts of our God.
ngoba behlanyelwe endlini kaThixo, bazaqhela emagumeni kaNkulunkulu wethu.
14 Then shall they be increased in a fine old age; and they shall be prosperous; that they may declare
Bazabe belokhu bethela izithelo lanxa sebebadala, bazahlala belokhu behluma beluhlaza,
15 that the Lord my God is righteous, and there is no iniquity in him.
bememezela besithi, “UThixo uqotho; uliDwala lami, kakukho bubi kuye.”
