Amahubo 111

1 Dumisani uThixo. Ngizambabaza uThixo ngenhliziyo yami yonke enkundleni yabaqotho lasemhlanganweni.

Hallelujah! I will celebrate Jehovah with [my] whole heart, in the council of the upright, and in the assembly.

2 Mikhulu imisebenzi kaThixo; isemicabangweni yabo bonke abathokoza ngayo.

Great are the works of Jehovah; sought out of all that delight in them.

3 Zilenkazimulo lobukhosi izenzo zakhe, lokulunga Kwakhe kumi kuze kube laphakade.

His work is majesty and splendour, and his righteousness abideth for ever.

4 Wenzile ukuthi izimanga zakhe zikhunjulwe; uThixo ulomusa lesihawu.

He hath made his wonders to be remembered: Jehovah is gracious and merciful.

5 Uyabapha ukudla labo abamesabayo; uyasikhumbula isivumelwano Sakhe lanini.

He hath given meat unto them that fear him; he is ever mindful of his covenant.

6 Ubatshengisile abantu bakhe amandla emisebenzi yakhe, ngokubapha amazwe ezinye izizwe.

He hath shewn his people the power of his works, to give them the heritage of the nations.

7 Imisebenzi yezandla zakhe ithembekile, ilungile; zonke iziqondiso zakhe ziyathembeka.

The works of his hands are truth and judgment; all his precepts are faithful:

8 Zimi kaziguquki nini lanini, zenziwa ngeqiniso langobuqotho.

Maintained for ever and ever, done in truth and uprightness.

9 Wathumela abantu bakhe insindiso; wasingcwelisa isivumelwano Sakhe okwanininini lingcwele liyesabeka ibizo lakhe.

He sent deliverance unto his people; he hath commanded his covenant for ever: holy and terrible is his name.

10 Ukumesaba uThixo kuyikuqala kwenhlakanipho bonke abalandela iziqondiso zakhe balokuzwisisa okuhle. Kungokwakhe ukudunyiswa kwaphakade.

The fear of Jehovah is the beginning of wisdom; a good understanding have all they that do [his precepts]: his praise abideth for ever.
