Psalms 79
1 A psalm of Asaph O God they have come [the] nations - in inheritance your they have made unclean [the] temple of holiness your they have made Jerusalem into heaps of ruins.
Nkulunkulu, abezizwe sebengenile elifeni lakho; balingcolisile ithempeli lakho elingcwele; iJerusalema bayenze yaba zinqumbi.
2 They have given [the] corpse[s] of servants your food to [the] bird[s] of the heavens [the] flesh faithful [people] your to [the] animal[s] of [the] earth.
Banikile izidumbu zezinceku zakho zaba yikudla kwenyoni zamazulu, inyama yabangcwele bakho kuzo izilo zomhlaba.
3 They have poured out blood their - like water round about Jerusalem and there not [was one who] buried [them].
Balichithile igazi labo njengamanzi inhlangothi zonke zeJerusalema; njalo kakubanga khona ongcwabayo.
4 We have become a reproach to neighbors our mockery and derision to [those] around us.
Sesibe yinhlamba kubomakhelwane bethu, inhlekisa loklolodelo kwabasiphahlileyo.
5 Until when? O Yahweh will you be angry? to perpetuity will it burn? like fire jealousy your.
Koze kube nini, Nkosi? Uzathukuthela phakade yini? Ubukhwele bakho buzavutha njengomlilo yini?
6 Pour out anger your against the nations which not they know you and on kingdoms which on name your not they call.
Thulula ulaka lwakho phezu kwabezizwe abangakwaziyo, laphezu kwemibuso engabizi ibizo lakho.
7 For it has consumed Jacob and habitation its they have devastated.
Ngoba bamdlile uJakobe, lomuzi wakhe sebewenze unxiwa.
8 May not you remember to us iniquities former [surely] quickly may they come to meet us compassion your for we have become low exceedingly.
Ungakhumbuli umelene lathi izono zethu zendulo; isihawu sakho kasize masinyane phambi kwethu, ngoba sehliselwe phansi kakhulu.
9 Help us - O God of salvation our on [the] matter of [the] glory of name your and deliver us and atone on sins our for [the] sake of name your.
Sisize, Nkulunkulu wosindiso lwethu, ngenxa yodumo lwebizo lakho; sikhulule, uhlawulele izono zethu, ngenxa yebizo lakho.
10 Why? - will they say the nations where? [is] God their let it be known (among the nations *Q(k)*) to eyes our [the] vengeance of [the] blood of servants your poured out.
Kungani abezizwe bezakuthi: Ungaphi uNkulunkulu wabo? Kawaziwe phakathi kwezizwe phambi kwamehlo ethu, impindiselo yegazi lenceku zakho elachithwayo.
11 May it come before you [the] groaning of [the] prisoner according to [the] greatness of arm your leave over [the] sons of death.
Ukububula kwezibotshwa kakuze phambi kwakho; njengobukhulu bengalo yakho ulondoloze abantwana bokufa.
12 And repay to neighbors our sevenfold into bosom their reproach their which they reproached you O Lord.
Uphindisele omakhelwane bethu kasikhombisa esifubeni sabo ukuthuka kwabo, abakuthuka ngakho, Nkosi.
13 And we people your - and [the] sheep of pasture your we will give thanks to you for ever to a generation and a generation we will recount praise your.
Khona thina abantu bakho, izimvu zedlelo lakho, sizakubonga kuze kube nininini, silandise udumo lwakho esizukulwaneni ngesizukulwana.
