Psalms 29

1 [A Psalm by David.] Ascribe to the LORD, you sons of the mighty, ascribe to the LORD glory and strength.

Inikeni iNkosi, lina madodana abalamandla, inikeni iNkosi udumo lamandla.

2 Ascribe to the LORD the glory due to his name. Worship the LORD in holy array.

Inikeni iNkosi udumo lwebizo layo, likhothame eNkosini ebuhleni bobungcwele.

3 The voice of the LORD is on the waters. The God of glory thunders, even the LORD on many waters.

Ilizwi leNkosi liphezu kwamanzi; uNkulunkulu wenkazimulo uyaduma; iNkosi iphezu kwamanzi amanengi.

4 The voice of the LORD is powerful. The voice of the LORD is full of majesty.

Ilizwi leNkosi lilamandla, ilizwi leNkosi lilobukhosi.

5 The voice of the LORD breaks the cedars. Yes, the LORD breaks in pieces the cedars of Lebanon.

Ilizwi leNkosi lephula imisedari, yebo, iNkosi yephula imisedari yeLebhanoni.

6 He makes them also to skip like a calf; Lebanon and Sirion like a young, wild ox.

Yenza yona-ke iqolotshe njengethole, iLebhanoni leSiriyoni njengethole lenyathi.

7 The voice of the LORD strikes with flashes of lightning.

Ilizwi leNkosi lidabula amalangabi omlilo.

8 The voice of the LORD shakes the wilderness. The LORD shakes the wilderness of Kadesh.

Ilizwi leNkosi lizamazamisa inkangala, iNkosi izamazamisa inkangala yeKadeshi.

9 The voice of the LORD makes the large trees tremble, and strips the forests bare. In his temple everything says, "Glory."

Ilizwi leNkosi lizalisa izimpala, lihlubule amahlathi; lethempelini layo konke kuthi: Udumo.

10 The LORD sat enthroned at the Flood. Yes, the LORD sits as King forever.

UJehova uhlezi phezu kukazamcolo, yebo, uJehova uhlezi eyiNkosi kuze kube nininini.

11 The LORD will give strength to his people. The LORD will bless his people with peace.

INkosi izanika abantu bayo amandla; iNkosi ibusise abantu bayo ngokuthula.
