Psalms 29

1 A Psalm of David. Give to the LORD, O ye mighty, give to the LORD glory and strength.

Ihubo likaDavida. Mupheni uThixo, lina ziphakanyiswa, mupheni uThixo ubukhosi lamandla.

2 Give to the LORD, the glory due to his name; worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness.

Mupheni uThixo ubukhosi obufanele ibizo lakhe; mkhonzeni uThixo ekukhazimuleni kobungcwele bakhe.

3 The voice of the LORD [is] upon the waters: the God of glory thundereth: the LORD [is] upon many waters.

Ilizwi likaThixo liyazulazula phezu kwamanzi; uNkulunkulu wenkazimulo uyandindiza, uThixo uyandindiza phezu kwamanzi amanengi.

4 The voice of the LORD [is] powerful; the voice of the LORD [is] full of majesty.

Ilizwi likaThixo lilamandla; ilizwi likaThixo lilobukhosi.

5 The voice of the LORD breaketh the cedars; yes, the LORD breaketh the cedars of Lebanon.

Ilizwi likaThixo lephula imisedari; uThixo uyiqamula ibe yizicucu imisedari yaseLebhanoni.

6 He maketh them also to skip like a calf; Lebanon and Sirion like a young unicorn.

Wenza iLebhanoni itshakale njengethole, iSiriyoni njengeguqa lenyathi.

7 The voice of the LORD divideth the flames of fire.

Ilizwi likaThixo litshaya ngezikhatha zombane.

8 The voice of the LORD shaketh the wilderness; the LORD shaketh the wilderness of Kadesh.

Ilizwi likaThixo liyayizamazamisa inkangala; uThixo uyayizamazamisa iNkangala yaseKhadeshi.

9 The voice of the LORD maketh the hinds to calve, and maketh bare the forests: and in his temple doth every one speak of [his] glory.

Ilizwi likaThixo liyayitshila imikusu likhwebule izihlahla amagusu asale eze. Njalo ethempelini lakhe bonke bazamemeza bathi, “Inkazimulo!”

10 The LORD sitteth upon the flood; yes, the LORD sitteth king for ever.

UThixo uhlezi ebukhosini phezu kwesikhukhula; uThixo unguMbusi lanininini.

11 The LORD will give strength to his people; the LORD will bless his people with peace.

UThixo unika amandla ebantwini bakhe; uThixo ubusisa abantu bakhe ngokuthula.
