Psalms 5
1 TO THE OVERSEER. [BLOWN] INTO THE PIPES. A PSALM OF DAVID. Hear my sayings, O YHWH, Consider my (meditation)
Kumqondisi wokuhlabela. Kwabemifece. Ihubo likaDavida. Zwana amazwi ami, Oh Thixo, hawukela ukububula kwami.
2 Be attentive to the voice of my cry, My King and my God, For I pray to You habitually.
Lalela ukukhala kwami ngidinga uncedo, Nkosi yami loNkulunkulu wami, ngoba ngikhuleka kuwe.
3 YHWH, [in] the morning You hear my voice, [In] the morning I set in array for You, And I look out [expectantly].
Ekuseni, Oh Thixo, uyalizwa ilizwi lami; ekuseni ngibeka izicelo zami phambi kwakho ngilinde ngithembile.
4 For You [are] not a God desiring wickedness, Evil does not inhabit You.
Kawusuye uNkulunkulu othokoza ngobubi; ababi ngeke bahlale lawe.
5 The boastful do not station themselves before Your eyes: You have hated all working iniquity.
Iziqholo ngeke zime phambi kwakho; uyabazonda bonke abenza okubi.
6 You destroy those speaking lies, YHWH detests a man of blood and deceit.
Uyababhubhisa labo abaqamba amanga; abomele igazi labakhohlisayo uThixo uyabenyanya.
7 And I, in the abundance of Your kindness, I enter Your house, I bow myself toward Your holy temple in Your fear.
Kodwa mina, ngomusa wakho omkhulu, ngizangena endlini yakho; ngizakhothamela phansi ngokuhlonipha ngikhangele ethempelini lakho elingcwele.
8 O YHWH, lead me in Your righteousness, Because of those observing me, Make Your way straight before me,
Ngikhokhele, Oh Thixo, ngokulunga kwakho; ngenxa yezitha zami yenza iqonde indlela yakho phambi kwami.
9 For there is no stability in their mouth. Their heart [is] mischiefs, Their throat [is] an open grave, They make their tongue smooth.
Kalikho lalinye ilizwi lomlomo wabo elithembekileyo; inhliziyo yabo igcwele ukubhidliza. Umphimbo wabo ulingcwaba elikhamisileyo; ngolimi lwabo bakhuluma inkohliso.
10 Declare them guilty, O God, Let them fall from their own counsels, In the abundance of their transgressions Drive them away, Because they have been rebellious against You.
Tshono uthi balecala, Oh Nkulunkulu! Akuthi amacebo abo abe yikuwa kwabo. Baxotshele khatshana ngenxa yezono zabo ezinengi, ngoba bakuhlamukele wena.
11 And all trusting in You rejoice, They sing for all time, and You cover them over, And those loving Your Name exult in You.
Kodwa akuthi bonke abaphephela kuwe bathokoze; kabahlabelele njalonjalo ngenjabulo. Basibekele ngovikelo lwakho, kuthi labo abalithandayo ibizo lakho bajabule ngawe.
12 For You bless the righteous, O YHWH, Surrounding him with favor as a buckler!
Ngoba ngempela, Oh Thixo, uyababusisa abalungileyo; uyabazungeza ngomusa wakho njengesihlangu.
