Psalms 146

1 Praise YAH! Praise, O my soul, YHWH.

Dumisani iNkosi! Dumisa iNkosi, mphefumulo wami.

2 I praise YHWH during my life, I sing praise to my God while I exist.

Ngizayidumisa iNkosi ngisaphila; ngizahlabelela indumiso kuNkulunkulu wami ngisesekhona.

3 Do not trust in princes—in a son of man, For he has no deliverance.

Lingabeki ithemba lenu eziphathamandleni, endodaneni yomuntu okungekho kuyo usindiso.

4 His spirit goes forth, he returns to his earth, In that day his thoughts have perished.

Umoya wakhe uyaphuma, uyabuyela emhlabathini wakhe; ngalolosuku amacebo akhe ayaphela.

5 O the blessedness of him Who has the God of Jacob for his help, His hope [is] on his God YHWH,

Ubusisiwe yena oloNkulunkulu kaJakobe ukuthi abe lusizo lwakhe, othemba lakhe liseNkosini uNkulunkulu wakhe,

6 Making the heavens and earth, The sea and all that [is] in them, Who is keeping truth for all time,

owenza amazulu, lomhlaba, ulwandle, lakho konke okukukho, ogcina iqiniso kuze kube nininini,

7 Doing judgment for the oppressed, Giving bread to the hungry.

owenzela abacindezelweyo isahlulelo, obaphayo ukudla abalambileyo. INkosi iyakhulula izibotshwa,

8 YHWH is loosing the prisoners, YHWH is opening (the eyes of) the blind, YHWH is raising the bowed down, YHWH is loving the righteous,

INkosi iyavula amehlo eziphofu; iNkosi iyabalulamisa abakhothemeyo; iNkosi iyabathanda abalungileyo.

9 YHWH is preserving the strangers, He causes the fatherless and widow to stand, And He turns the way of the wicked upside down.

INkosi ilondoloza abemzini, isekele intandane lomfelokazi; kodwa indlela yababi iyayigenqula.

10 YHWH reigns for all time, Your God, O Zion, to generation and generation, Praise YAH!

INkosi izabusa kuze kube nininini, uNkulunkulu wakho, Ziyoni, kuze kube sesizukulwaneni ngesizukulwana. Dumisani iNkosi!
