Amahubo 125

1 Ingoma yemiqanso. Labo abamethembayo uThixo banjengentaba iZiyoni, yona enganyikinyekiyo, emi kuze kube laphakade.

They that trust in YHWH shall be as mount Zion, which cannot be removed, but abideth for ever.

2 Njengezintaba ezigombolozele iJerusalema, ngokunjalo uThixo uzungeza abantu bakhe manje kuze kube laphakade.

As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, so YHWH is round about his people from henceforth even for ever.

3 Intonga yobukhosi eyababi kayiyikusala ezweni elabelwe abalungileyo, ngoba abalungileyo bangaqabuka sebesebenzisa izandla zabo ukwenza okubi.

For the rod of the wicked shall not rest upon the lot of the righteous; lest the righteous put forth their hands unto iniquity.

4 Yenza okuhle, awu Thixo, kulabo abalungileyo, kulabo abaqotho enhliziyweni

Do good, O YHWH, unto those that be good, and to them that are upright in their hearts.

5 kodwa labo abaphambukela ezindleleni ezitshekileyo uThixo uzabaxotsha kanye labenzi bobubi. Ukuthula kakube ku-Israyeli.

As for such as turn aside unto their crooked ways, YHWH shall lead them forth with the workers of iniquity: but peace shall be upon Israel.
