Psalms 51
1 To victorie, the salm of Dauid; `whanne Nathan the prophete cam to hym, whanne he entride to Bersabee. God, haue thou merci on me; bi thi greet merci. And bi the mychilnesse of thi merciful doyngis; do thou awei my wickidnesse.
Ngihawukela, Nkulunkulu, ngokothandolomusa wakho; ngobunengi besihawu sakho yesula iziphambeko zami.
2 More waische thou me fro my wickidnesse; and clense thou me fro my synne.
Ungigezisise ebubini bami, ungihlambulule esonweni sami.
3 For Y knouleche my wickidnesse; and my synne is euere ayens me.
Ngoba mina ngiyazivuma iziphambeko zami, lesono sami sihlezi siphambi kwami.
4 I haue synned to thee aloone, and Y haue do yuel bifor thee; that thou be iustified in thi wordis, and ouercome whanne thou art demed. For lo!
Ngonile kuwe, kuwe wedwa, ngenze okubi emehlweni akho, ukuze kuthiwe ulungile ekukhulumeni kwakho, uhlanzeke ekwahluleleni kwakho.
5 Y was conseyued in wickednessis; and my modir conceyuede me in synnes.
Khangela, ngazalelwa ebubini, lomama wangomulela esonweni.
6 For lo! thou louedist treuthe; thou hast schewid to me the vncerteyn thingis, and pryuy thingis of thi wisdom.
Khangela, uthanda iqiniso endaweni ezingaphakathi; lekusithekeni ungenza ngazi inhlakanipho.
7 Lord, sprenge thou me with ysope, and Y schal be clensid; waische thou me, and Y schal be maad whijt more than snow.
Ngihlanze ngehisope, ngizahlambuluka; ngigezisa, ngizakuba mhlophe kuleliqhwa elikhithikileyo.
8 Yyue thou ioie, and gladnesse to myn heryng; and boonys maad meke schulen ful out make ioye.
Ngizwise intokozo lenjabulo, ukuze athabe amathamboowachobozileyo.
9 Turne awei thi face fro my synnes; and do awei alle my wickidnesses.
Fihla ubuso bakho ezonweni zami, wesule zonke iziphambeko zami.
10 God, make thou a clene herte in me; and make thou newe a riytful spirit in my entrailis.
Nkulunkulu, dala kimi inhliziyo ehlambulukileyo, njalo uvuselele umoya oqinileyo phakathi kwami.
11 Caste thou me not awei fro thi face; and take thou not awei fro me thin hooli spirit.
Ungangilahli ebusweni bakho, njalo ungasusi umoya wakho ongcwele kimi.
12 Yiue thou to me the gladnesse of thyn helthe; and conferme thou me with the principal spirit.
Buyisela kimi intokozo yosindiso lwakho, ungisekele ngomoya ovumayo.
13 I schal teche wickid men thi weies; and vnfeithful men schulen be conuertid to thee.
Khona ngizafundisa abaphambukayo indlela zakho, lezoni zizaphendukela kuwe.
14 God, the God of myn helthe, delyuere thou me fro bloodis; and my tunge schal ioyfuli synge thi riytfulnesse.
Ngikhulula ecaleni legazi, Nkulunkulu, Nkulunkulu wosindiso lwami, ulimi lwami luzahlabelela kakhulu ngokulunga kwakho.
15 Lord, `opene thou my lippis; and my mouth schal telle thi preysyng.
Nkosi, vula indebe zami, lomlomo wami uzamemezela indumiso yakho.
16 For if thou haddist wold sacrifice, Y hadde youe; treuli thou schalt not delite in brent sacrifices.
Ngoba kawuthandi umhlatshelo, ngoba bengizawunika; kawuthokozi ngomnikelo wokutshiswa.
17 A sacrifice to God is a spirit troblid; God, thou schalt not dispise a contrit herte and `maad meke.
Imihlatshelo kaNkulunkulu ingumoya odabukileyo; inhliziyo edabukileyo leyephukileyo, Nkulunkulu, kawuyikuyidelela.
18 Lord, do thou benygneli in thi good wille to Syon; that the wallis of Jerusalem be bildid.
Yenzele iZiyoni okuhle ngokuthanda kwakho; uyakhe imiduli yeJerusalema.
19 Thanne thou schalt take plesauntli the sacrifice of riytfulnesse, offryngis, and brent sacrifices; thanne thei schulen putte calues on thin auter.
Khona uzajabulela iminikelo yokulunga, umnikelo wokutshiswa, lomnikelo wonke; khona bezanikela amajongosi phezu kwelathi lakho.
