Psalms 12

1 to/for to conduct upon [the] Sheminith melody to/for David to save [emph?] LORD for to cease pious for to disappear faithful from son: child man

Siza, Nkosi, ngoba owesaba uNkulunkulu kasekho, ngoba abathembekileyo banyamalele basuka ebantwaneni babantu.

2 vanity: false to speak: speak man: anyone with neighbor his lips smoothness in/on/with heart and heart to speak: speak

Bakhuluma okuyize, ngulowo lalowo lomakhelwane wakhe; indebe ezilalisayo, bakhuluma nganhliziyombili.

3 to cut: eliminate LORD all lips smoothness tongue to speak: speak great: large

INkosi izaquma zonke indebe ezilalisayo, ulimi olukhuluma izinto zokuzidla;

4 which to say to/for tongue our to prevail lips our with us who? lord to/for us

abathi: Sizanqoba ngolimi lwethu, indebe zethu ngezethu; ngubani oyinkosi phezu kwethu?

5 from violence afflicted from groaning needy now to arise: rise to say LORD to set: put in/on/with salvation to breathe to/for him

Ngenxa yokubandezelwa kwabayanga, ngenxa yokububula kwabaswelayo, sengizavuka, kutsho iNkosi. Ngizabeka ekulondolozekeni amvuthelayo.

6 word LORD word pure silver: money to refine in/on/with furnace to/for land: soil to refine sevenfold

Amazwi eNkosi angamazwi ahlambulukileyo, isiliva esizanywe esithandweni senhlabathi, sihlanjululwe kasikhombisa.

7 you(m. s.) LORD to keep: guard them to watch him from [the] generation this to/for forever: enduring

Wena, Nkosi, uzabagcina, ubavikele kulesisizukulwana kuze kube nininini.

8 around: side wicked to go: walk [emph?] like/as to exalt vileness to/for son: child man

Ababi bayahambahamba inhlangothi zonke, lapho amanyala ephakanyiswa phakathi kwabantwana babantu.
