< Psalms 99 >
1 Yahweh reigns! Let the peoples tremble. He sits enthroned among the cherubim. Let the earth be moved.
UThixo uyabusa, izizwe kazithuthumele; uhlezi esihlalweni sobukhosi phakathi kwamakherubhi, umhlaba kawuzamazame.
2 Yahweh is great in Zion. He is high above all the peoples.
Mkhulu uThixo eZiyoni; uphakeme ngaphezu kwezizwe zonke.
3 Let them praise your great and awesome name. He is Holy!
Kabadumise ibizo Lakho elikhulu elesabekayo Yena ungcwele.
4 The King’s strength also loves justice. You establish equity. You execute justice and righteousness in Jacob.
INkosi ilamandla, ithanda ukwahlulela okuhle umisile ukwaba ngemfanelo; kuJakhobe usuwenzile okuqondileyo lokulungileyo.
5 Exalt Yahweh our God. Worship at his footstool. He is Holy!
Dumisani uThixo uNkulunkulu wethu likhonze phansi kwesihlalo sakhe; yena ungcwele.
6 Moses and Aaron were among his priests, Samuel was among those who call on his name. They called on Yahweh, and he answered them.
UMosi lo-Aroni babephakathi kwabaphristi bakhe, uSamuyeli wayekulabo ababelibiza ibizo lakhe; bambiza uThixo Yena wabaphendula.
7 He spoke to them in the pillar of cloud. They kept his testimonies, the statute that he gave them.
Wabakhulumisa ephakathi kwensika yeyezi; bagcina izimiso zakhe lezimemezelo azitshoyo kubo.
8 You answered them, Yahweh our God. You are a God who forgave them, although you took vengeance for their doings.
Oh Thixo Nkulunkulu wethu, wabaphendula; ku-Israyeli wawunguNkulunkulu othethelelayo, lanxa wabajezisa ngenxa yezenzo zabo ezimbi.
9 Exalt Yahweh, our God. Worship at his holy hill, for Yahweh, our God, is holy!
Phakamisani uThixo uNkulunkulu wethu, limkhonze entabeni yakhe engcwele, ngoba uThixo uNkulunkulu wethu ungcwele.
