Psalms 99

1 A Psalm of David. The Lord reigns; —let the people rage; [it is he] that sits upon the cherubs, let the earth be moved.

UThixo uyabusa, izizwe kazithuthumele; uhlezi esihlalweni sobukhosi phakathi kwamakherubhi, umhlaba kawuzamazame.

2 The Lord is great in Sion, and is high over all the people.

Mkhulu uThixo eZiyoni; uphakeme ngaphezu kwezizwe zonke.

3 Let them give thanks to your great name; for it is terrible and holy.

Kabadumise ibizo Lakho elikhulu elesabekayo Yena ungcwele.

4 And the king's honor loves judgment; you have prepared equity, you have wrought judgment and justice in Jacob.

INkosi ilamandla, ithanda ukwahlulela okuhle umisile ukwaba ngemfanelo; kuJakhobe usuwenzile okuqondileyo lokulungileyo.

5 Exalt you the Lord our God, and worship [at] his footstool; for he is holy.

Dumisani uThixo uNkulunkulu wethu likhonze phansi kwesihlalo sakhe; yena ungcwele.

6 Moses and Aaron among his priests, and Samuel among them that call upon his name; they called upon the Lord, and he heard them.

UMosi lo-Aroni babephakathi kwabaphristi bakhe, uSamuyeli wayekulabo ababelibiza ibizo lakhe; bambiza uThixo Yena wabaphendula.

7 He spoke to them in a pillar of cloud; they kept his testimonies, and the ordinances which he gave them.

Wabakhulumisa ephakathi kwensika yeyezi; bagcina izimiso zakhe lezimemezelo azitshoyo kubo.

8 O Lord our God, you heard them; O God, you became propitious to them, though you did take vengeance on all their devices.

Oh Thixo Nkulunkulu wethu, wabaphendula; ku-Israyeli wawunguNkulunkulu othethelelayo, lanxa wabajezisa ngenxa yezenzo zabo ezimbi.

9 Exalt you the Lord our God, and worship at his holy mountain; for the Lord our God is holy.

Phakamisani uThixo uNkulunkulu wethu, limkhonze entabeni yakhe engcwele, ngoba uThixo uNkulunkulu wethu ungcwele.
