Psalms 81
1 To the ouercomer in the pressours of Asaph. Make ye fulli ioye to God, oure helpere; synge ye hertli to God of Jacob.
Hlabelani kakhulu kuNkulunkulu amandla ethu, lihlokome ngentokozo kuNkulunkulu kaJakobe.
2 Take ye a salm, and yyue ye a tympan; a myrie sautere with an harpe.
Thathani ingoma, lilethe isigujana, ichacho elimnandi kanye logubhu lwezintambo.
3 Blowe ye with a trumpe in Neomenye; in the noble dai of youre solempnite.
Vuthelani uphondo ekuthwaseni kwenyanga, esikhathini esimisiweyo, ngosuku lomkhosi wethu.
4 For whi comaundement is in Israel; and doom is to God of Jacob.
Ngoba lokho kuyisimiso kuIsrayeli, umthetho kaNkulunkulu kaJakobe.
5 He settide that witnessing in Joseph; whanne he yede out of the lond of Egipt, he herde a langage, which he knew not.
Wakumisa kwaba yibufakazi kuJosefa, ekuphumeni kwakhe emelene lelizwe leGibhithe; ngezwa ulimi engingalwaziyo.
6 He turnede a wei his bak fro birthens; hise hondis serueden in a coffyn.
Ngasusa ihlombe lakhe emthwalweni; izandla zakhe zakhululwa ezimbizeni.
7 In tribulacioun thou inwardli clepidist me, and Y delyuerede thee; Y herde thee in the hid place of tempest, Y preuede thee at the water of ayenseiyng.
Wakhala usenhluphekweni, ngakukhulula; ngakuphendula ekusithekeni komdumo; ngakuhlola emanzini eMeriba. (Sela)
8 My puple, here thou, and Y schal be witnesse ayens thee;
Zwana, sizwe sami, ngizafakaza kuwe, Israyeli, aluba ungangilalela.
9 Israel, if thou herist me, a fresche God schal not be in thee, and thou schalt not worschipe an alien god.
Kakungabi khona phakathi kwakho unkulunkulu wezizweni, njalo ungakhonzi unkulunkulu wezizweni.
10 For Y am thi Lord God, that ladde thee out of the lond of Egipt; make large thi mouth, and Y schal fille it.
Mina ngiyiNkosi, uNkulunkulu wakho, owakwenyusa usuka elizweni leGibhithe. Khamisa umlomo wakho ube banzi, njalo ngizawugcwalisa.
11 And my puple herde not my vois; and Israel yaue not tente to me.
Kodwa abantu bami kabalilalelanga ilizwi lami; loIsrayeli kavumelananga lami.
12 And Y lefte hem aftir the desiris of her herte; thei schulen go in her fyndyngis.
Ngakho ngabanikela enkanini yenhliziyo yabo, ukuze bahambe kumacebo abo.
13 If my puple hadde herde me; if Israel hadde go in my weies.
Kungathi abantu bami bebengangilalela, uIsrayeli ahambe endleleni zami!
14 For nouyt in hap Y hadde maad low her enemyes; and Y hadde send myn hond on men doynge tribulacioun to hem.
Masinyane bengingazehlisela phansi izitha zabo, ngiphendulele isandla sami kwabamelene labo.
15 The enemyes of the Lord lieden to hym; and her tyme schal be in to worldis.
Abayizondayo iNkosi bangatshotshobala phambi kwayo ngokuzenzisa, kodwa isikhathi sabo besizakuba phakade.
16 And he fedde hem of the fatnesse of whete; and he fillide hem with hony of the stoon.
Wayezabondla ngamanono engqoloyi; njalo bengizakusuthisa ngoluju oluvela edwaleni.
