Psalms 62

1 For the Chief Musician. To Jeduthun. A Psalm by David. My soul rests in God alone. My salvation [yeshuah-ti] is from him.

Ngoqotho, umphefumulo wami uyamlindela uNkulunkulu ngokuthula; luvela kuye usindiso lwami.

2 He alone is my rock, my salvation, and my fortress. I will never be greatly shaken.

Nguye kuphela olidwala lami losindiso lwami, inqaba yami; kangiyikunyikinywa kakhulu.

3 How long will you assault a man? Would all of you throw him down, like a leaning wall, like a tottering fence?

Koze kube nini liceba ububi limelene lomuntu? Lonke lizabulawa, njengomduli otshekileyo, uthango oludilikayo.

4 They fully intend to throw him down from his lofty place. They delight in lies. They bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly. (Selah)

Baceba kuphela ukumwisa ekuphakameni kwakhe, bathokoza ngamanga; ngomlomo wabo bayabusisa, kodwa ngaphakathi kwabo bayathuka. (Sela)

5 My soul, wait in silence for God alone, for my expectation is from him.

Mphefumulo wami, lindela ngokuthula kuNkulunkulu kuphela; ngoba ithemba lami livela kuye.

6 He alone is my rock and my salvation [yeshuah-ti], my fortress. I will not be shaken.

Nguye kuphela olidwala lami losindiso lwami, inqaba yami; kangiyikunyikinywa.

7 My salvation and my honor is with God. The rock of my strength, and my refuge, is in God.

LukuNkulunkulu usindiso lwami lodumo lwami, idwala lamandla ami, isiphephelo sami, kukuNkulunkulu.

8 Trust in him at all times, you people. Pour out your heart before him. God is a refuge for us. (Selah)

Thembani kuye isikhathi sonke, lina bantu; lithulule inhliziyo yenu phambi kwakhe; uNkulunkulu uyisiphephelo sethu. (Sela)

9 Surely men of low degree are just a breath, and men of high degree are a lie. In the balances they will go up. They are together lighter than a breath.

Ngoqotho, abantukazana bayize, izikhulu ziyinkohliso; esilinganisweni balula kuleze bebonke.

10 Don’t trust in oppression. Don’t become vain in robbery. If riches increase, don’t set your heart on them.

Lingathembeli embandezelweni, lingamisi ithemba eliyize ekuphangeni; uba inotho isanda, lingabeki inhliziyo kuyo.

11 God has spoken once; twice I have heard this, that power belongs to God.

UNkulunkulu ukhulumile kwaba kanye, ngikuzwile lokhu kabili, ukuthi amandla angakaNkulunkulu.

12 Also to you, Lord, belongs loving kindness, for you reward every man according to his work.

Lomusa ungowakho, Nkosi; ngoba wena uyamphindisela wonke umuntu njengokomsebenzi wakhe.
