< Psalms 76 >
1 To the Overseer with stringed instruments. — A Psalm of Asaph. — A Song. In Judah [is] God known, in Israel His name [is] great.
Kumqondisi wokuhlabela. Kusetshenziswa iziginci. Ihubo lika-Asafi. Ingoma. Uyaziwa uNkulunkulu koJuda ibizo lakhe likhulu ko-Israyeli.
2 And His tabernacle is in Salem, And His habitation in Zion.
Ithente lakhe liseSalema, indawo yakhe yokuhlala iseZiyoni.
3 There he hath shivered arrows of a bow, Shield, and sword, and battle. (Selah)
Khonapho wayephula imitshoko ebenyezelayo, izihlangu lezinkemba, izikhali zempi.
4 Bright [art] Thou, honourable above hills of prey.
Uyakhazimula ngokukhanya, ulobukhosi obudlula izintaba ezigcwele izinyamazana.
5 Spoiled themselves have the mighty of heart, They have slept their sleep, And none of the men of might found their hands.
Amadoda alezibindi alele ucaca aphangiwe, alele ubuthongo bawo bokucina; kakho loyedwa wamabutho lawo ongaphakamisa izandla zakhe.
6 From Thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, Both rider and horse have been fast asleep.
Uthi ungakhwaza wena, Oh Nkulunkulu kaJakhobe, ibhiza lenqola kuhle kulale phansi kuthi zwi.
7 Thou, fearful [art] Thou, And who doth stand before Thee, Since Thou hast been angry!
Wena wedwa uyesatshwa. Ngubani ongema phambi kwakho nxa usuthukuthele?
8 From heaven Thou hast sounded judgment, Earth hath feared, and hath been still,
Wathi usezulwini wehlisa ukwahlulela kwakho, ilizwe lesaba lathula,
9 In the rising of God to judgment, To save all the humble of earth. (Selah)
lapho wena, Oh Nkulunkulu, waphakama ukwahlulela, ukusindisa bonke abahluphekayo belizwe.
10 For the fierceness of man praiseth Thee, The remnant of fierceness Thou girdest on.
Ngempela ulaka lwakho ebantwini lukulethela indumiso, kuthi bonke abasilileyo elakeni lwakho bathotshiswe.
11 Vow and complete to Jehovah your God, All ye surrounding him. They bring presents to the Fearful One.
Yenzani izifungo kuThixo uNkulunkulu wenu lizigcwalise; akuthi wonke amazwe abomakhelwana alethe izipho kuye Yedwa omele esatshwe.
12 He doth gather the spirit of leaders, Fearful to the kings of earth!
Uyephula ubuqholo bababusi; uyesatshwa ngamakhosi omhlaba.
