Psalms 76

1 TO THE OVERSEER. WITH STRINGED INSTRUMENTS. A PSALM OF ASAPH. A SONG. God [is] known in Judah, His Name [is] great in Israel.

UNkulunkulu uyaziwa koJuda; ibizo lakhe likhulu koIsrayeli.

2 And His dwelling place is in Salem, And His habitation in Zion.

Njalo idumba lakhe liseSalema, lendawo yakhe yokuhlala eZiyoni.

3 There He has shattered arrows of a bow, Shield, and sword, and battle. (Selah)

Lapho wephula imitshoko evuthayo yedandili, isihlangu, lenkemba, lempi. (Sela)

4 You [are] bright, majestic above hills of prey.

Uyakhazimula, ulobukhosi okwedlula izintaba zempango.

5 The mighty of heart have spoiled themselves, They have slept their sleep, And none of the men of might found their hands.

Baphangiwe abaqinileyo ngenhliziyo, balele ubuthongo babo; njalo kakho emaqhaweni othole izandla zawo.

6 From Your rebuke, O God of Jacob, Both rider and horse have been fast asleep.

Ekukhalimeni kwakho, Nkulunkulu kaJakobe, kokubili inqola lebhiza kulele ubuthongo obukhulu.

7 You, fearful [are] You, And who stands before You, Since You have been angry?

Wena, wena uyesabeka. Ngubani-ke ongema phambi kwakho kusukela esikhathini solaka lwakho?

8 You have sounded judgment from the heavens, Earth has feared, and has been still,

Wenza isahlulelo sizwakale usemazulwini; umhlaba wesaba wathula,

9 In the rising of God to judgment, To save all the humble of earth. (Selah)

mhla uNkulunkulu evukela isahlulelo, ukusindisa bonke abathobekileyo bomhlaba. (Sela)

10 For the fierceness of man praises You, You gird on the remnant of fierceness.

Qotho, ulaka lomuntu luzakudumisa; uzazibhinca ngensalela yolaka.

11 Vow and complete to your God YHWH, All you surrounding Him, They bring presents to the Fearful One.

Fungani, likhokhe eNkosini uNkulunkulu wenu, lonke eliyihanqileyo lilethe izipho kuye ofanele esatshwe.

12 He gathers the spirit of leaders, Fearful to the kings of earth!

Izaquma umoya weziphathamandla; iyesabeka emakhosini omhlaba.
