Amahubo 30
1 Ihubo. Ingoma. Elokunikela ithempeli. ElikaDavida. Ngizakuphakamisa, Oh Thixo, ngoba wangenyula ekujuleni awaze wavumela izitha zami zijabule phezu kwami.
A Canticle Psalm. In dedication to the house of David. I will extol you, Lord, for you have sustained me, and you have not allowed my enemies to delight over me.
2 Awu Thixo, Nkulunkulu wami, ngacela Kuwe uncedo wangisilisa.
O Lord my God, I have cried out to you, and you have healed me.
Lord, you led my soul away from Hell. You have saved me from those who descend into the pit. (Sheol h7585)
4 Hlabelelani kuThixo lina bathembekileyo bakhe; dumisani ibizo lakhe elingcwele.
Sing a psalm to the Lord, you his saints, and confess with remembrance of his holiness.
5 Ngoba ukuthukuthela Kwakhe ngokomzuzwana nje, kodwa umusa wakhe ukhona okwempilo yonke; ukulila kungaqhubeka ubusuku bonke, kodwa ukuthokoza kuyafika ekuseni.
For wrath is in his indignation, and life is in his will. Toward evening, weeping will linger, and toward morning, gladness.
6 Ngathi lapho ngizizwa ngihlezi kuhle ngathi, “Kangisoze ngafa ngahlukuluzeka.”
But I have said in my abundance: “I will never be disturbed.”
7 Yebo Thixo, wathi lapho ungizwela wenza intaba yami yagxila qho; kodwa kwathi lapho usufihle ubuso Bakho ngaphelelwa lithemba.
O Lord, in your will, you made virtue preferable to beauty for me. You turned your face away from me, and I became disturbed.
8 Ngakhala kuwe, Thixo; ngacela umusa eNkosini:
To you, Lord, I will cry out. And I will make supplication to my God.
9 “Kulenzuzo bani ngokubhujiswa kwami na, ngokutshona kwami egodini? Kambe uthuli luzakudumisa na? Lona luzafakaza na ngokuthembeka Kwakho?
What use would there be in my blood, if I descend into corruption? Will dust confess to you or announce your truth?
10 Zwana, Oh Thixo, ube lomusa kimi; woba lusizo lwami.”
The Lord has heard, and he has been merciful to me. The Lord has become my helper.
11 Waguqula ukububula kwami kwaba ngumgido; wangihlubula izigqoko zamasaka wangigqokisa ukuthokoza,
You have turned my mourning into gladness for me. You have cut off my sackcloth, and you have surrounded me with joy.
12 ukuze inhliziyo yami ikuhlabelele ingathuli. Oh Thixo, Nkulunkulu wami, ngizakubonga nini lanini.
So then, may my glory sing to you, and may I not regret it. O Lord, my God, I will confess to you for eternity.
