< Psalms 29 >

1 A Melody of David. Give to Yahweh, ye sons of the mighty, —Give to Yahweh, [both] glory and strength:
Ihubo likaDavida. Mupheni uThixo, lina ziphakanyiswa, mupheni uThixo ubukhosi lamandla.
2 Give to Yahweh, the glory of his Name, Bow down to Yahweh, in the adornment of holiness.
Mupheni uThixo ubukhosi obufanele ibizo lakhe; mkhonzeni uThixo ekukhazimuleni kobungcwele bakhe.
3 The voice of Yahweh, is upon the waters, —The GOD of glory, hath thundered, Yahweh, is upon mighty waters;
Ilizwi likaThixo liyazulazula phezu kwamanzi; uNkulunkulu wenkazimulo uyandindiza, uThixo uyandindiza phezu kwamanzi amanengi.
4 The voice of Yahweh, is with power, The voice of Yahweh, is with majesty;
Ilizwi likaThixo lilamandla; ilizwi likaThixo lilobukhosi.
5 The voice of Yahweh, is breaking cedars, Now hath Yahweh, broken down, the cedars of Lebanon!
Ilizwi likaThixo lephula imisedari; uThixo uyiqamula ibe yizicucu imisedari yaseLebhanoni.
6 And hath made them leap like a calf, Lebanon and Sirion, like the bull-calf of wild-oxen;
Wenza iLebhanoni itshakale njengethole, iSiriyoni njengeguqa lenyathi.
7 The voice of Yahweh, is cleaving out flames of fire;
Ilizwi likaThixo litshaya ngezikhatha zombane.
8 The voice of Yahweh, bringeth birth-pains upon the wilderness; Yahweh bringeth birth-pains upon the wilderness of Kadesh!
Ilizwi likaThixo liyayizamazamisa inkangala; uThixo uyayizamazamisa iNkangala yaseKhadeshi.
9 The voice of Yahweh, causeth the gazelles to bring forth, and hath stript forests; and, in his own temple, every one there, is saying, Glory!
Ilizwi likaThixo liyayitshila imikusu likhwebule izihlahla amagusu asale eze. Njalo ethempelini lakhe bonke bazamemeza bathi, “Inkazimulo!”
10 Yahweh, at the Flood, was seated, And Yahweh hath taken his seat, as king, unto times age-abiding.
UThixo uhlezi ebukhosini phezu kwesikhukhula; uThixo unguMbusi lanininini.
11 Yahweh, will give, strength to his people, —Yahweh, will bless his people with prosperity.
UThixo unika amandla ebantwini bakhe; uThixo ubusisa abantu bakhe ngokuthula.
