Amahubo 21
1 Kumqondisi wokuhlabela. Ihubo likaDavida. Yebo Thixo umbusi uyathokoza ngamandla akho. Kukhulu ukuthokoza kwakhe ngokunqoba akuphiwa nguwe!
The king shall joy in thy strength, O YHWH; and in thy salvation how greatly shall he rejoice!
2 Usumphile isiloyiso senhliziyo yakhe njalo kawumncitshanga isicelo sezindebe zakhe.
Thou hast given him his heart's desire, and hast not withholden the request of his lips. (Selah)
3 Wamemukela ngezibusiso ezinhle wamethesa umqhele wegolide elicengekileyo ekhanda lakhe.
For thou preventest him with the blessings of goodness: thou settest a crown of pure gold on his head.
4 Wacela kuwe ukusila, wamupha ubude bezinsuku kuze kube nini lanini.
He asked life of thee, and thou gavest it him, even length of days for ever and ever.
5 Ngokunqoba akuphiwe nguwe lukhulu udumo lwakhe; usumgqizise inkazimulo lobukhosi.
His glory is great in thy salvation: honour and majesty hast thou laid upon him.
6 Ngempela usumuphe izibusiso ezingapheliyo wamenza wajabula ngentokozo yobukhona Bakho.
For thou hast made him most blessed for ever: thou hast made him exceeding glad with thy countenance.
7 Ngoba umbusi uyamthemba uThixo; ngothando loPhezukonke olungaphuthiyo akayikuzanyazanyiswa.
For the king trusteth in YHWH, and through the mercy of the most High he shall not be moved.
8 Isandla Sakho sizazibamba zonke izitha Zakho; isandla Sakho sokunene sizabaxhakalaza abakuzondayo.
Thine hand shall find out all thine enemies: thy right hand shall find out those that hate thee.
9 Kuzakuthi lapho uqhamuka wena uzabenza babe njengomlilo wemvutho enkulu. Ngenxa yentukuthelo yakhe uThixo uzabaginya, umlilo wakhe uzabaqothula.
Thou shalt make them as a fiery oven in the time of thine anger: YHWH shall swallow them up in his wrath, and the fire shall devour them.
10 Wena uzabhubhisa izizukulwane zabo emhlabeni, inzalo yabo ebantwini.
Their fruit shalt thou destroy from the earth, and their seed from among the children of men.
11 Loba beceba okubi Ngawe besakha amaqhinga amabi, abangeke baphumelele;
For they intended evil against thee: they imagined a mischievous device, which they are not able to perform.
12 ngoba uzabenza bafulathele babaleke nxa usubakhombela usulinwebile idandili.
Therefore shalt thou make them turn their back, when thou shalt make ready thine arrows upon thy strings against the face of them.
13 Phakanyiswa, Oh Thixo ngamandla Akho; sizahlabela sibabaze amandla Akho.
Be thou exalted, YHWH, in thine own strength: so will we sing and praise thy power.
