Amahubo 20

1 Kumqondisi wokuhlabela. Ihubo likaDavida. Sengathi uThixo angakuphendula nxa usenkathazweni; sengathi ibizo likaNkulunkulu kaJakhobe lingakuvikela.

For the Leader. A Psalm of David. The LORD answer thee in the day of trouble; the name of the God of Jacob set thee up on high;

2 Sengathi angakuthumela usizo luvela endlini engcwele njalo akunike ukuhlomulela kuvela eZiyoni.

Send forth thy help from the sanctuary, and support thee out of Zion;

3 Sengathi angakhumbula yonke imihlatshelo yakho njalo emukele iminikelo yakho yokutshiswa.

Receive the memorial of all thy meal-offerings, and accept the fat of thy burnt-sacrifice; (Selah)

4 Sengathi angakupha isifiso senhliziyo yakho enze izimiso zakho zonke ziphumelele.

Grant thee according to thine own heart, and fulfil all thy counsel.

5 Sizamemeza ngokujabula lapho usunqobile, siphakamise uphawu lwethu egameni likaNkulunkulu wethu. Sengathi uThixo angakupha zonke izicelo zakho.

We will shout for joy in thy victory, and in the name of our God we will set up our standards; the LORD fulfil all thy petitions.

6 Manje sengisazi ukuthi uThixo uyamhlenga ogcotshiweyo wakhe; uyamphendula esezulwini lakhe elingcwele ngamandla Akhe asindisayo awesandla Sakhe sokunene.

Now know I that the LORD saveth His anointed; He will answer him from His holy heaven with the mighty acts of His saving right hand.

7 Abanye bathemba izinqola zempi, abanye amabhiza, kodwa thina sithemba ibizo likaThixo uNkulunkulu wethu.

Some trust in chariots, and some in horses; but we will make mention of the name of the LORD our God.

8 Bafuqelwa phansi bawe, kodwa thina siyaphakama sime sigxile.

They are bowed down and fallen; but we are risen, and stand upright.

9 Oh Thixo, sindisa inkosi! Sabela lapho simemeza!

Save, LORD; let the King answer us in the day that we call.
