< Psalms 46 >
1 [For the Chief Musician. By the sons of Korah. According to Alamoth.] God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
UNkulunkulu uyisiphephelo sethu lamandla ethu, uyatholwa elusizo kakhulu ekuhluphekeni.
2 Therefore we won't be afraid, though the earth changes, though the mountains are shaken into the heart of the seas;
Ngenxa yalokhu kasiyikwesaba ekuguqukeni komhlaba, lanxa izintaba zidilikela phakathi kwenlwandle.
3 though its waters roar and are troubled, though the mountains tremble with their swelling. (Selah)
Amanzi alo kawahlokome, akhaphazele, izintaba zizamazame ngokukhukhumala kwalo. (Sela)
4 There is a river, the streams of which make the city of God glad, the holy place of the tents of the Most High.
Kulomfula, izifula zawo zithokozisa umuzi kaNkulunkulu, indawo engcwele yamathabhanekele oPhezukonke.
5 God is in her midst. She shall not be moved. God will help her at dawn.
UNkulunkulu uphakathi kwawo, kawuyikunyikinywa; uNkulunkulu uzawusiza ngovivi lokusa.
6 The nations raged. The kingdoms were moved. He lifted his voice, and the earth melted.
Izizwe ziyaxokozela, imibuso izamazame; wakhupha ilizwi lakhe, umhlaba wancibilika.
7 Jehovah of hosts is with us. The God of Jacob is our refuge. (Selah)
INkosi yamabandla ilathi, uNkulunkulu kaJakobe uyinqaba yethu. (Sela)
8 Come, see Jehovah's works, what desolations he has made in the earth.
Wozani libone imisebenzi yeNkosi, incithakalo eyenzileyo emhlabeni.
9 He makes wars cease throughout the earth. He breaks the bow, and shatters the spear. He burns the chariots in the fire.
Yenza izimpi ziphele kuze kube semkhawulweni womhlaba; yephula idandili, iqumaqume umkhonto, itshise izinqola emlilweni.
10 "Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations. I will be exalted in the earth."
Thulani, lazi ukuthi mina nginguNkulunkulu, ngizaphakanyiswa phakathi kwezizwe, ngiphakanyiswe emhlabeni.
11 Jehovah of hosts is with us. The God of Jacob is our refuge. (Selah)
INkosi yamabandla ilathi, uNkulunkulu kaJakobe uyinqaba yethu. (Sela)
