1 Dumisani uThixo. Dumisani uThixo, lina zinceku zakhe, dumisani ibizo likaThixo.
Praise the Lord, ye children: praise ye the name of the Lord.
2 Kalidunyiswe ibizo likaThixo, khona manje kanye laphakade.
Blessed be the name of the Lord, from henceforth now and for ever.
3 Kusukela okuphuma khona ilanga kusiyafika lapho elitshona khona, kufanele lidunyiswe ibizo likaThixo.
From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same, the name of the Lord is worthy of praise.
4 UThixo uphakeme ngaphezu kwezizwe zonke, inkazimulo yakhe ngaphezulu kwamazulu.
The Lord is high above all nations; and his glory above the heavens.
5 Ngubani na onjengoThixo uNkulunkulu wethu, oNguye ohlezi ebukhosini phezulu,
Who is as the Lord our God, who dwelleth on high:
6 okhothama akhangele phansi emazulwini lasemhlabeni?
And looketh down on the low things in heaven and in earth?
7 Uyabavusa abampofu othulini, aphakamise abaswelayo esilotheni;
Raising up the needy from the earth, and lifting up the poor out of the dunghill:
8 abahlalise lamakhosana, amakhosana abantu bakibo.
That he may place him with princes, with the princes of his people.
9 Lomfazi oyinyumba umenza ahlale kuhle emzini wakhe afane lalowo ongunina wabantwana. Dumisani uThixo.
Who maketh a barren woman to dwell in a house, the joyful mother of children.
