< Psalms 113 >
1 Praise Yahweh! You people who serve Yahweh, praise him! Praise (him/his name)!
Dumisani iNkosi! Dumisani, zinceku zeNkosi, dumisani ibizo leNkosi.
2 Yahweh should be praised now and forever!
Kalibongwe ibizo leNkosi kusukela khathesi njalo kuze kube nininini.
3 People who live in the east and people who live in the west, everyone, should praise Yahweh [MTY]!
Kusukela ekuphumeni kwelanga kuze kube sekutshoneni kwalo ibizo leNkosi kalidunyiswe.
4 Yahweh rules [MTY] over all the nations, and high in the heavens he shows that his glory is very great.
INkosi iphakeme phezu kwezizwe zonke, ubukhosi bayo buphezu kwamazulu.
5 There is no one [RHQ] who is like Yahweh, our God, who lives/sits/rules in the highest heaven,
Ngubani onjengeNkosi uNkulunkulu wethu, ehlezi phezulu,
6 and looks far down through the heavens and sees the [people on] the earth.
ekhothama ukukhangela emazulwini lemhlabeni?
7 [Sometimes] he lifts poor people up [so that they no longer sit in] the dirt; he helps needy [people so that they no longer sit on] heaps of ashes
Iyamvusa umyanga ethulini, imphakamise osweleyo enqunjini yomquba,
8 and causes them to [be honored] by sitting next to princes, the sons of the kings [who rule] their people.
ukuze imhlalise leziphathamandla, kanye leziphathamandla zabantu bayo.
9 He also enables women who have no children to have a family; he causes them to be happy mothers. Praise Yahweh!
Ihlalisa inyumba emzini, unina wabantwana othokozayo. Dumisani iNkosi!
