Amahubo 16
1 Imikithamu kaDavida. Ngilondoloza, Oh Nkulunkulu, ngoba ngiphephela kuwe.
A miktam of David protect me O God for I have taken refuge in you.
2 Ngathi kuThixo, “UnguThixo wami; ngaphandle kwakho angilakho okuhle.”
You [fem] said to Yahweh [are the] Lord you good my not [is] on you.
3 Labo abangcwele abakhona elizweni bangabakhazimulayo engithokoza ngabo.
To [the] holy [ones] who [are] in the land they and [the] majestic [ones] [whom] all delight my [is] in them.
4 Labo abagijimela abanye onkulunkulu inhlupho zabo zizakwanda. Angiyi kuyithulula iminikelo yegazi kubonkulunkulu labo njalo amabizo abo kawayikuphuma kwezami izindebe.
They will increase sorrows their [those who] another [god] they hurried after not I will pour out drink offerings their from blood and not I will take names their on lips my.
5 Thixo, usungahlukanisele isabelo sami kanye lenkezo yami; konke okwami usukumise kuhle.
Yahweh [is] [the] portion of possession my and cup my you [are] holding lot my.
6 Imingcele yesabelo sami idabula ezindaweni ezibukekayo; ngeqiniso elami ilifa liyathokozisa.
Boundary lines they have fallen to me in pleasant [places] also an inheritance it is beautiful on me.
7 Ngizamdumisa uThixo, onguye ongelulekayo; lasebusuku inhliziyo yami iyangiqondisa.
I will bless Yahweh who he has counseled me also nights they have instructed me kidneys my.
8 Ngikhangele kuThixo kokuphela. Njengoba esesandleni sami sokunene angiyi kunyikinywa.
I have placed Yahweh to before me continually for [he is] from right [hand] my not I will be shaken.
9 Ngakho-ke inhliziyo yami iyathokoza lolimi lwami luyajabula; lomzimba wami uzaphumula uvikelekile,
Therefore - it is glad heart my and it rejoiced honor my also body my it will dwell to security.
10 ngoba kawuzukungiyekela ngize ngiye endaweni yabafileyo, njalo kawusoze wekele othembekileyo wakho ezwe ukubola. (Sheol h7585)
For - not you will abandon life my to Sheol not you will permit faithful [one] your to see [the] pit. (Sheol h7585)
11 Usungazisile indlela yempilo; uzangigcwalisa ngokuthaba phambi kwakho, ngenjabulo engapheliyo kwesokunene sakho.
You will make known to me [the] path of life abundance of gladness [are] with presence your pleasant [things] [are] at right [hand] your perpetuity.
