Amahubo 65
1 Kumqondisi wokuhlabela. Ihubo likaDavida. Ingoma. Udumo lukulindele, Oh Nkulunkulu, eZiyoni; kuwe izifungo zethu zizagcwaliseka.
Unto the end. A Psalm of David. A Canticle of Jeremiah and Ezekiel to the people of the captivity, when they began to go into exile. O God, a hymn adorns you in Zion, and a vow will be repaid to you in Jerusalem.
2 Yebo, wena owuzwayo umkhuleko, bonke abantu bazakuza kuwe.
Hear my prayer: all flesh will come to you.
3 Kwathi lapho sisancindezelwa yizono, wazithethelela iziphambeko zethu.
Words of iniquity have prevailed over us. And you will pardon our impieties.
4 Babusisiwe labo obakhethayo ubasondeze bazohlala emagumeni Akho! Sigcwalisiwe ngezinto ezinhle zendlu Yakho, ezethempeli lakho elingcwele.
Blessed is he whom you have chosen and taken up. He will dwell in your courts. We will be filled with the good things of your house. Holy is your temple:
5 Uyasiphendula ngezenzo zokulunga ezimangalisayo, Oh Nkulunkulu Msindisi wethu, themba lemikhawulo yonke yomhlaba lenlwandle ezikude,
wonderful in equity. Hear us, O God our Savior, the hope of all the ends of the earth and of a sea far away.
6 owabumba izintaba ngamandla akho, lapho wena usuziqinisile ngamandla,
You prepare the mountains in your virtue, wrapped with power.
7 owathulisa ukuduma kolwandle, ukuduma kwamagagasi azo, lokuhlokoma kwezizwe.
You stir up the depths of the sea, the noise of its waves. The nations will be troubled,
8 Labo abahlala khatshana bayazesaba izimangaliso zakho; lapho okudabuka khona ukusa lokuhlwa okufiphala khona, uhlabela izingoma zentokozo.
and those who dwell at the limits will be afraid, before your signs. You will make the passing of morning and evening enjoyable.
9 Uyawunakekela umhlaba uwuthelezele ngamanzi; uyawunothisa kakhulu. Imifula kaNkulunkulu igcwalisiwe ngamanzi ukuze abantu bazuze amabele, ngoba ukumisile wena lokho.
You have visited the earth, and you have saturated it. You have enriched it in so many ways. The river of God has been filled with water. You have prepared their food. For thus is its preparation.
10 Uyayigcwalisa imisele yawo ngamanzi uyendlale kahle imibundu yawo; uyawuthambisa ngemikhizo ubusise amabele awo.
Drench its streams, multiply its fruits; it will spring up and rejoice in its showers.
11 Uyawuphelelisa umnyaka ngenala, izinqola Zakho ziphuphume ngokugcwala.
You will bless the crown of the year with your kindness, and your fields will be filled with abundance.
12 Amadlelo asenkangala ayaphuphuma; izintaba zigqokiswe ngenjabulo.
The beauty of the desert will fatten, and the hills will be wrapped with exultation.
13 Amadlelo agcwele imihlambi yezimvu lezigodi zisibekelwe ngamabele; ziyamemeza ngentokozo zihlabelela.
The rams of the sheep have been clothed, and the valleys will abound with grain. They will cry out; yes, they will even utter a hymn.
