< Psalms 108 >

1 [A Song. A Psalm by David.] My heart is steadfast, God. I will sing and I will make music with my soul.
Inhliziyo yami iqinile, Nkulunkulu. Ngizahlabelela ngitshotshe, ngitsho udumo lwami!
2 Wake up, harp and lyre. I will wake up the dawn.
Vukani gubhu lwezintambo lechacho! Ngizavusa ukusa.
3 I will give thanks to you, LORD, among the nations. I will sing praises to you among the peoples.
Ngizakudumisa, Nkosi, phakathi kwabantu, ngihlabele indumiso kuwe phakathi kwezizwe.
4 For your loving kindness is great above the heavens. Your faithfulness reaches to the skies.
Ngoba umusa wakho mkhulu phezu kwamazulu, leqiniso lakho lifika emayezini.
5 Be exalted, God, above the heavens. Let your glory be over all the earth.
Phakama, Nkulunkulu, ngaphezu kwamazulu, lobukhosi bakho phezu komhlaba wonke.
6 That your beloved may be delivered, save with your right hand, and answer us.
Ukuze abathandekayo bakho bakhululwe; sindisa ngesandla sakho sokunene, ungiphendule.
7 God has spoken from his sanctuary: "In triumph, I will divide Shechem, and measure out the Valley of Succoth.
UNkulunkulu ukhulumile ebungcweleni bakhe. Ngizathaba, ngiyabe iShekema, ngilinganise isihotsha seSukothi.
8 Gilead is mine. Manasseh is mine. Ephraim also is my helmet. Judah is my scepter.
Ngeyami iGileyadi, ngowami uManase, loEfrayimi ungamandla ekhanda lami, uJuda ungumnikumthetho wami.
9 Moab is my wash pot. I will toss my sandal on Edom. I will shout in triumph over Philistia."
UMowabi ungumganu wami wokugezela; phezu kukaEdoma ngizaphosela inyathela lami; phezu kweFilisti ngizamemeza ngokunqoba.
10 Who will bring me into the fortified city? Who has led me to Edom?
Ngubani ozangisa emzini oqinileyo? Ngubani ozangiholela eEdoma?
11 Haven't you rejected us, God? You do not go forth, God, with our armies.
Kawusilahlanga yini, Nkulunkulu; kawuphumanga, Nkulunkulu, lamabutho ethu?
12 Give us help against the enemy, for the help of man is vain.
Siphe usizo ekuhlupheni, ngoba luyize uncedo lomuntu.
13 Through God, we will do valiantly. For it is he who will trample down our enemies.
KuNkulunkulu sizakwenza ngobuqhawe, ngoba yena uzanyathelela phansi izitha zethu.
