< Psalms 62 >

1 To the Overseer, for Jeduthun. — A Psalm of David. Only — toward God [is] my soul silent, From Him [is] my salvation.
Ngoqotho, umphefumulo wami uyamlindela uNkulunkulu ngokuthula; luvela kuye usindiso lwami.
2 Only — He [is] my rock, and my salvation, My tower, I am not much moved.
Nguye kuphela olidwala lami losindiso lwami, inqaba yami; kangiyikunyikinywa kakhulu.
3 Till when do ye devise mischief against a man? Ye are destroyed all of you, As a wall inclined, a hedge that is cast down.
Koze kube nini liceba ububi limelene lomuntu? Lonke lizabulawa, njengomduli otshekileyo, uthango oludilikayo.
4 Only — from his excellency They have consulted to drive away, They enjoy a lie, with their mouth they bless, And with their heart revile. (Selah)
Baceba kuphela ukumwisa ekuphakameni kwakhe, bathokoza ngamanga; ngomlomo wabo bayabusisa, kodwa ngaphakathi kwabo bayathuka. (Sela)
5 Only — for God, be silent, O my soul, For from Him [is] my hope.
Mphefumulo wami, lindela ngokuthula kuNkulunkulu kuphela; ngoba ithemba lami livela kuye.
6 Only — He [is] my rock and my salvation, My tower, I am not moved.
Nguye kuphela olidwala lami losindiso lwami, inqaba yami; kangiyikunyikinywa.
7 On God [is] my salvation, and my honour, The rock of my strength, my refuge [is] in God.
LukuNkulunkulu usindiso lwami lodumo lwami, idwala lamandla ami, isiphephelo sami, kukuNkulunkulu.
8 Trust in Him at all times, O people, Pour forth before Him your heart, God [is] a refuge for us. (Selah)
Thembani kuye isikhathi sonke, lina bantu; lithulule inhliziyo yenu phambi kwakhe; uNkulunkulu uyisiphephelo sethu. (Sela)
9 Only — vanity [are] the low, a lie the high. In balances to go up they than vanity [are] lighter.
Ngoqotho, abantukazana bayize, izikhulu ziyinkohliso; esilinganisweni balula kuleze bebonke.
10 Trust not in oppression, And in robbery become not vain, Wealth — when it increaseth — set not the heart.
Lingathembeli embandezelweni, lingamisi ithemba eliyize ekuphangeni; uba inotho isanda, lingabeki inhliziyo kuyo.
11 Once hath God spoken, twice I heard this, That 'strength [is] with God.'
UNkulunkulu ukhulumile kwaba kanye, ngikuzwile lokhu kabili, ukuthi amandla angakaNkulunkulu.
12 And with Thee, O Lord, [is] kindness, For Thou dost recompense to each, According to his work!
Lomusa ungowakho, Nkosi; ngoba wena uyamphindisela wonke umuntu njengokomsebenzi wakhe.
