< Amahubo 113 >
1 Dumisani uThixo. Dumisani uThixo, lina zinceku zakhe, dumisani ibizo likaThixo.
Praise the LORD! Praise, you servants of the LORD, praise the LORD’s name.
2 Kalidunyiswe ibizo likaThixo, khona manje kanye laphakade.
Blessed be the LORD’s name, from this time forward and forever more.
3 Kusukela okuphuma khona ilanga kusiyafika lapho elitshona khona, kufanele lidunyiswe ibizo likaThixo.
From the rising of the sun to its going down, the LORD’s name is to be praised.
4 UThixo uphakeme ngaphezu kwezizwe zonke, inkazimulo yakhe ngaphezulu kwamazulu.
The LORD is high above all nations, his glory above the heavens.
5 Ngubani na onjengoThixo uNkulunkulu wethu, oNguye ohlezi ebukhosini phezulu,
Who is like the LORD, our God, who has his seat on high,
6 okhothama akhangele phansi emazulwini lasemhlabeni?
who stoops down to see in heaven and in the earth?
7 Uyabavusa abampofu othulini, aphakamise abaswelayo esilotheni;
He raises up the poor out of the dust, and lifts up the needy from the ash heap,
8 abahlalise lamakhosana, amakhosana abantu bakibo.
that he may set him with princes, even with the princes of his people.
9 Lomfazi oyinyumba umenza ahlale kuhle emzini wakhe afane lalowo ongunina wabantwana. Dumisani uThixo.
He settles the barren woman in her home as a joyful mother of children. Praise the LORD!
