< Amahubo 104 >
1 Dumisa uThixo, Oh mphefumulo wami. Oh Thixo Nkulunkulu wami, umkhulu kakhulu; ugqoke inkazimulo lobukhosi.
2 Uyazigoqela ngokukhanya kungathi njengesivunulo; amazulu uyawelula njengethente
3 anqumise intungo zezindlu zangaphezulu zilale phezu kwamanzi. Wenza amayezi inqola yakhe yamabhiza, undiza ngezimpiko zomoya.
4 Wenza izikhatha zomoya zibe yizithunywa zakhe, amalangabi omlilo izinceku zakhe.
5 Wawugxilisa umhlaba ezisekelweni zawo; ungeke wagudlulwa.
6 Wawembesa ngolwandle njengesivunulo; amanzi ema ngaphezu kwezintaba.
7 Kodwa wathi ngokukhwaza amanzi abaleka, ngomsindo wokuduma kwakho asibathela;
8 ageleza phezu kwezintaba, ehlela ezigodini endaweni owamisele kuyo.
9 Wamisa umkhawulo angeke aweqe; kasayikubuya awugubuzele njalo umhlaba lanini.
10 Wenza imithombo impompozele amanzi ezindongeni; ageleza phakathi kwezintaba,
11 zipha amanzi kuzozonke izinyamazana zeganga; labobabhemi beganga bacitsha lapho ukoma.
12 Izinyoni zomoya zakhela eduze kwamanzi; ziyatshiloza phakathi kwezingatsha.
13 Uyazithelezela izintaba esezindlini zakhe eziphezulu; umhlaba uyawusuthisa ngezithelo zomsebenzi wakhe.
14 Umilisela inkomo utshani, ahlanyelele abantu bona bahlakule kuzuzakale ukudla emhlabathini:
15 iwayini elijabulisa inhliziyo yomuntu, amagcobo enza ubuso bakhe bukhazimule, lesinkwa esilulamisa inhliziyo yakhe.
16 Izihlahla zikaThixo ziyathelelwa okwaneleyo, imisedari yeLebhanoni ayihlanyelayo.
17 Izinyoni zakhela kuyo izidleke zazo; ingabuzane lakha indlu yalo ezihlahleni zephayini.
18 Izintaba eziphakemeyo ngezamagogo, amawa ayisiphephelo sezimbila.
19 Inyanga yehlukanisa izibanga zomnyaka, lelanga liyazi ukuthi litshona nini.
20 Uletha umnyama, kube sebusuku, lapho zonke izinyamazana zeganga zizingele.
21 Izilwane ziyabhonga zifuna inyama yazo zidinga ukudla kwazo kuNkulunkulu.
22 Ilanga liyaphuma, zibe sezicatsha; ziyabuyela ezikhundleni zazo zilale.
23 Umuntu abe esephuma aye emsebenzini wakhe, ayotshikatshika kuze kube ntambama.
24 Minengi kanganani imisebenzi yakho, Oh Thixo! Zonke wazenza ngenhlakanipho; umhlaba ugcwele izidalwa zakho.
25 Nantuyana ulwandle, uthwaca olungakaya, olunyakazela ngezidalwa ezingelakubalwa izinto eziphilayo ezinkulu lezincinyane.
26 Kulapho imikhumbi endenda khona isiyale lale, loleviyathani, isilo owasenza ukuthi sidlale khona.
27 Zonke lezi zikhangele kuwe ukuthi uziphe ukudla ngesikhathi esifaneleyo.
28 Uthi ungazipha bese zikubuthela ndawonye; uthi ungavula isandla sakho, zisuthiswe ngezinto ezinhle.
29 Uthi ungafihla ubuso bakho zitshaywe luvalo; uthi ungathatha umphefumulo wazo, zife zibuyele othulini.
30 Uthi ungathumela uMoya wakho zidalwe, uwenze ube muhle umhlaba.
31 Sengathi inkazimulo kaThixo ingema lanini; sengathi uThixo angathokoza ngemisebenzi yakhe
32 yena okhangela umhlaba uthuthumele, othinta izintaba zithunqe intuthu.
33 Ngizahlabelela kuThixo impilo yami yonke; ngizahlabelela indumiso kuNkulunkulu wami lanini nxa ngisaphila.
34 Sengathi iminakano yami ingamthokozisa, ngoba ngiyathokoza kuThixo.
35 Kodwa sengathi izoni zinganyamalala emhlabeni lezigangi zingabe zisaba khona. Dumisa uThixo, Oh Mphefumulo wami. Dumisa uThixo, Oh Mphefumulo wami.
