Every day will I bless thee; and I will praise thy name for ever and ever.

To make known to the sons of men his mighty acts, and the glorious majesty of his kingdom.
13 Umbuso wakho ungumbuso ongapheliyo, lobukhosi bakho bumi kuzozonke izizukulwane. UThixo uthembekile kuzozonke izithembiso zakhe njalo ulothando kukho konke akwenzayo.
Thy kingdom [is] an everlasting kingdom, and thy dominion [endureth] throughout all generations.
14 UThixo uyabaxhasa bonke labo abawayo abaphakamise bonke abacubayo.
The LORD upholdeth all that fall, and raiseth up all [those that are] bowed down.
15 Amehlo abo bonke akhangela kuwe, wena ubaphe ukudla kwabo ngesikhathi esifaneleyo.
The eyes of all wait upon thee; and thou givest them their food in due season.
16 Uyavula isandla sakho usuthise izidingo zakho konke okuphilayo.
Thou openest thy hand, and satisfiest the desire of every living creature.
17 UThixo ulungile kuzozonke izindlela zakhe njalo uthembekile kukho konke akwenzayo.
The LORD [is] righteous in all his ways, and holy in all his works.
18 UThixo useduze kulabo abacela kuye, kubo bonke abacela kuye ngeqiniso.
The LORD [is] nigh to all them that call upon him, to all that call upon him in truth.
19 Uyagcwalisa izidingo zalabo abamesabayo; uyezwa ukukhala kwabo abasindise.
He will fulfill the desire of them that fear him: he also will hear their cry, and will save them.
20 UThixo uyabalinda bonke abamthandayo, kodwa bonke ababi uzababhubhisa.
The LORD preserveth all them that love him: but all the wicked will he destroy.
21 Umlomo wami uzakhuluma ngokudumisa uThixo. Akuthi izidalwa zonke zidumise ibizo lakhe elingcwele kuze kube nini lanini.
My mouth shall speak the praise of the LORD: and let all flesh bless his holy name for ever and ever.
