Psalms 71
1 Lord, Y hopide in thee, be Y not schent with outen ende;
Kuwe Thixo, sengithole isiphephelo; mangingayangiswa lanini.
2 in thi riytwisnesse delyuere thou me, and rauysche me out. Bowe doun thin eere to me; and make me saaf.
Ngihlenga ungikhulule ngokulunga kwakho; ngilalela, woza ngokuphangisa ungisindise.
3 Be thou to me in to God a defendere; and in to a strengthid place, that thou make me saaf. For thou art my stidefastnesse; and my refuit.
Woba lidwala lami lokuphephela, lapho engingaya khona loba nini; tshono umlayo wokuba ngisindiswe, ngoba ulidwala lami lenqaba yami.
4 My God, delyuere thou me fro the hoond of the synner; and fro the hoond of a man doynge ayens the lawe, and of the wickid man.
Ngikhulula, Oh Nkulunkulu, esandleni sababi, emandleni abantu ababi abalochuku.
5 For thou, Lord, art my pacience; Lord, thou art myn hope fro my yongthe.
Ngoba ube ulithemba lami, Oh Thixo Wobukhosi, ithemba lami kusukela ebutsheni bami.
6 In thee Y am confermyd fro the wombe; thou art my defendere fro the wombe of my modir.
Kusukela ekuzalweni kwami ngahle ngeyama kuwe; nguwe owangikhuphayo esiswini sikamama. Ngizakudumisa njalonjalo.
7 My syngyng is euere in thee; Y am maad as a greet wonder to many men; and thou art a strong helpere.
Senginjengomhlolo kwabanengi, kodwa wena uyisiphephelo sami esiqinileyo.
8 My mouth be fillid with heriyng; that Y synge thi glorie, al dai thi greetnesse.
Umlomo wami ugcwele udumo lwakho, umemezela inkazimulo yakho ilanga lonke.
9 Caste thou not awei me in the tyme of eldnesse; whanne my vertu failith, forsake thou not me.
Ungangilahleli kude nxa sengiluphele; ungangifulatheli lapho amandla ami esephelile.
10 For myn enemyes seiden of me; and thei that kepten my lijf maden counsel togidere.
Ngoba izitha zami zikhuluma kubi ngami; labo abalindele ukungibulala bahlangana ngami.
11 Seiynge, God hath forsake hym; pursue ye, and take hym; for noon is that schal delyuere.
Bathi, “UNkulunkulu usemlahlile; xotshanani laye limbambe, ngoba kakho ozamlamulela.”
12 God, be thou not maad afer fro me; my God, biholde thou in to myn help.
Ungabi khatshana kwami, Oh Nkulunkulu; woza masinyane, Oh Nkulunkulu wami, uzongisiza.
13 Men that bacbiten my soule, be schent, and faile thei; and be thei hilid with schenschip and schame, that seken yuels to me.
Sengathi labo abangethesa amacala bangabhubha beyangekile; sengathi labo abafuna ukungilimaza bangabhixwa ngehlazo lokuyangeka.
14 But Y schal hope euere; and Y schal adde euere ouer al thi preising.
Kodwa mina ngizahlala ngithembile; ngizakudumisa kakhulu.
15 Mi mouth schal telle thi riytfulnesse; al dai thin helthe. For Y knewe not lettrure, Y schal entre in to the poweres of the Lord;
Umlomo wami uzafakaza ngokulunga kwakho, langensindiso yakho ilanga lonke, lokuba ngingasazi isilinganiso sayo.
16 Lord, Y schal bithenke on thi riytfulnesse aloone.
Ngizakuza ngifakaze ngemisebenzi yakho emikhulu, Oh Thixo Wobukhosi; ngizafakaza ngokulunga kwakho, okwakho wedwa.
17 God, thou hast tauyt me fro my yongthe, and `til to now; Y schal telle out thi merueilis.
Kusukela ebutsheni bami, Oh Nkulunkulu, wangifundisa, kuze kube lamuhla ngimemezela imisebenzi yakho emangalisayo.
18 And til in to `the eldnesse and the laste age; God, forsake thou not me. Til Y telle thin arm; to eche generacioun, that schal come. Til Y telle thi myyt,
Lokuba sengiluphele sengiyimpunga ungangideli, Oh Nkulunkulu, ngize ngifakaze ngamandla akho esizukulwaneni esizayo, amandla akho kubo bonke abalandelayo.
19 and thi riytfulnesse, God, til in to the hiyeste grete dedis which thou hast do; God, who is lijk thee?
Ukulunga kwakho kufika emkhathini, Oh Nkulunkulu, wena osuwenze izinto ezinkulu. Ngubani, Oh Nkulunkulu, onjengawe?
20 Hou grete tribulaciouns many and yuele hast thou schewid to me; and thou conuertid hast quykenyd me, and hast eft brouyt me ayen fro the depthis of erthe.
Loba usungenze ngabona inhlupheko ezinengi lezibuhlungu, uzangenyula njalo ekujuleni komhlabathi.
21 Thou hast multiplied thi greet doyng; and thou conuertid hast coumfortid me.
Uzalwandisa udumo lwami ungiduduze futhi njalo.
22 For whi and Y schal knowleche to thee, thou God, thi treuthe in the instrumentis of salm; Y schal synge in an harpe to thee, that art the hooli of Israel.
Ngizakudumisa ngechacho ngenxa yokuthembeka kwakho, Nkulunkulu wami; ngizahlabelela indumiso kuwe ngomqangala, wena oNgcwele ka-Israyeli.
23 Mi lippis schulen make fulli ioye, whanne Y schal synge to thee; and my soule, which thou ayen bouytist.
Izindebe zami zizamemeza ngentokozo lapho ngihlabelela indumiso kuwe mina ongisindisileyo.
24 But and my tunge schal thenke al dai on thi riytfulnesse; whanne thei schulen be schent and aschamed, that seken yuelis to me.
Ulimi lwami luzatshona lukhuluma ngokulunga kwakho ilanga lonke, ngoba labo abafuna ukungilimaza sebeyangisiwe basanganiswa.
