< Psalms 46 >
1 To the Chief Musician. For the Sons of Korah, on Alamoth. A Song. God—for us, is a refuge and strength, A help in distresses, soon found.
Kumqondisi wokuhlabela. ElamaDodana kaKhora. Ingoma ngendlela ye-alamothi. UNkulunkulu uyisiphephelo sethu lamandla ethu, usizo oluhlezi lukhona nxa kulohlupho.
2 For this cause, will we not fear, Though the earth showeth change, Or the mountains slip into the heart of the seas:
Ngakho kangiyikwesaba, umhlaba ungaze ubhidlike lezintaba ziwele ekujuleni kolwandle,
3 The waters thereof roar and foam, The mountains tremble with the swelling thereof (Selah)
loba amanzi alo ehlokoma agubhazele izintaba zivevezele ngokuqubuka kwalo.
4 A river! whose channels, shall gladden the city of God, The Most High, hath hallowed his habitation.
Kukhona umfula ozifudlana zawo zithokozisa idolobho likaNkulunkulu, indawo engcwele okuhlala kuyo oPhezukonke.
5 God, is in the midst of her, she shall not be shaken, God will help her, by the turnings of the morning.
UNkulunkulu ungaphakathi kwalo, kaliyikuwiswa; uNkulunkulu uzalisiza ngovivi lokusa.
6 Nations have roared, Kingdoms have tottered, He hath uttered his voice, Earth melteth.
Izizwe ziyahlokoma, imibuso iyachitheka; uphakamisa ilizwi lakhe umhlaba uncibilike.
7 Yahweh of hosts, is with us, A high tower for us, is the God of Jacob. (Selah)
UThixo uSomandla ulathi; uNkulunkulu kaJakhobe uyinqaba yethu.
8 Come! view the doings of Yahweh, —Who hath set desolations in the earth;
Wozani libone imisebenzi kaThixo, incithakalo aseyenzile emhlabeni.
9 Causing wars to cease unto the end of the earth, —The bow, he shivereth, And breaketh in pieces the spear, war-chariots, burneth he up with fire.
Uyathulisa izimpi kuze kube semikhawulweni yomhlaba; uyalephula idandili avadlaze lomkhonto, utshisa izinqola ngomlilo.
10 Let be! and know that, I, am God, I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.
“Thulani, lazi ukuba mina nginguNkulunkulu; ngizaphakanyiswa phakathi kwezizwe; ngizaphakanyiswa emhlabeni.”
11 Yahweh of hosts, is with us, A high tower for us, is the God of Jacob. (Selah)
UThixo uSomandla ulathi, uNkulunkulu kaJakhobe uyinqaba yethu.
