< Psalms 21 >
1 To victorie, the salm of Dauid. Lord, the kyng schal be glad in thi vertu; and he schal ful out haue ioye greetli on thin helthe.
Jehova, inkosi izajabula emandleni akho, lesindisweni lwakho izathaba kangakanani!
2 Thou hast youe to hym the desire of his herte; and thou hast not defraudid hym of the wille of hise lippis.
Uyinikile isifiso senhliziyo yayo, kawuyincitshanga isicelo sendebe zayo. (Sela)
3 For thou hast bifor come hym in the blessyngis of swetnesse; thou hast set on his heed a coroun of preciouse stoon.
Ngoba uyihlangabeze ngezibusiso zokuhle, wayethwesa umqhele wegolide elihle ekhanda layo.
4 He axide of thee lijf, and thou yauest to hym; the lengthe of daies in to the world, `and in to the world of world.
Yacela impilo kuwe, wayinika yona, ubude bezinsuku kuze kube nini lanini.
5 His glorie is greet in thin helthe; thou schalt putte glorie, and greet fayrnesse on hym.
Lukhulu udumo lwayo ekusindiseni kwakho, inkazimulo lobukhosi wakubeka phezu kwayo.
6 For thou schalt yyue hym in to blessing in to the world of world; thou schalt make hym glad in ioye with thi cheer.
Ngoba uyenze yabusiseka kakhulu kuze kube nininini, uyayithokozisa ngenjabulo ebukhoneni bakho.
7 For the kyng hopith in the Lord; and in the merci of the hiyeste he schal not be moued.
Ngoba inkosi ithembela kuJehova, langomusa woPhezukonke kayiyikunyikinywa.
8 Thyn hond be foundun to alle thin enemyes; thi riythond fynde alle hem that haten thee.
Isandla sakho sizazithola zonke izitha zakho, lesandla sakho sokunene sizabathola labo abakuzondayo.
9 Thou schalt putte hem as a furneis of fier in the tyme of thi cheer; the Lord schal disturble hem in his ire, and fier schal deuoure hem.
Uzabenza babe njengesithando somlilo esikhathini solaka lwakho. INkosi izabaginya ekuthukutheleni kwayo, lomlilo uzabaqothula.
10 Thou schalt leese the fruyt of hem fro erthe; and `thou schalt leese the seed of hem fro the sones of men.
Uzachitha isithelo sabo emhlabeni, lenzalo yabo phakathi kwabantwana babantu.
11 For thei bowiden yuels ayens thee; thei thouyten counseils, whiche thei myyten not stablische.
Ngoba bezimisela okubi bemelene lawe, beceba ugobe, bazakwehluleka.
12 For thou schalt putte hem abac; in thi relifs thou schalt make redi the cheer of hem.
Ngoba uzabafulathelisa, ngezintambo zedandili uzalungisa imitshoko imelane lobuso babo.
13 Lord, be thou enhaunsid in thi vertu; we schulen synge, and seie opinly thi vertues.
Phakama, Nkosi, ngamandla akho! Sizahlabela sidumise amandla akho.
