Amahubo 65
1 Kumqondisi wokuhlabela. Ihubo likaDavida. Ingoma. Udumo lukulindele, Oh Nkulunkulu, eZiyoni; kuwe izifungo zethu zizagcwaliseka.
To the end, a psalm of David. The canticle of Jeremias and Ezechiel to the people of the captivity, when they began to go out. A Hymn, O God, becometh thee in Sion: and a vow shall be paid to thee in Jerusalem.
2 Yebo, wena owuzwayo umkhuleko, bonke abantu bazakuza kuwe.
O hear my prayer: all flesh shall come to thee.
3 Kwathi lapho sisancindezelwa yizono, wazithethelela iziphambeko zethu.
The words of the wicked have prevailed over us: and thou wilt pardon our transgressions.
4 Babusisiwe labo obakhethayo ubasondeze bazohlala emagumeni Akho! Sigcwalisiwe ngezinto ezinhle zendlu Yakho, ezethempeli lakho elingcwele.
Blessed is he whom thou hast chosen and taken to thee: he shall dwell in thy courts. We shall be filled with the good things of thy house; holy is thy temple,
5 Uyasiphendula ngezenzo zokulunga ezimangalisayo, Oh Nkulunkulu Msindisi wethu, themba lemikhawulo yonke yomhlaba lenlwandle ezikude,
Wonderful in justice. Hear us, O God our saviour, who art the hope of all the ends of the earth, and in the sea afar off.
6 owabumba izintaba ngamandla akho, lapho wena usuziqinisile ngamandla,
Thou who preparest the mountains by thy strength, being girded with power:
7 owathulisa ukuduma kolwandle, ukuduma kwamagagasi azo, lokuhlokoma kwezizwe.
Who troublest the depth of the sea, the noise of its waves. The Gentiles shall be troubled,
8 Labo abahlala khatshana bayazesaba izimangaliso zakho; lapho okudabuka khona ukusa lokuhlwa okufiphala khona, uhlabela izingoma zentokozo.
And they that dwell in the uttermost borders shall be afraid at thy signs: thou shalt make the outgoings of the morning and of the evening to be joyful.
9 Uyawunakekela umhlaba uwuthelezele ngamanzi; uyawunothisa kakhulu. Imifula kaNkulunkulu igcwalisiwe ngamanzi ukuze abantu bazuze amabele, ngoba ukumisile wena lokho.
Thou hast visited the earth, and hast plentifully watered it; thou hast many ways enriched it. The river of God is filled with water, thou hast prepared their food: for so is its preparation.
10 Uyayigcwalisa imisele yawo ngamanzi uyendlale kahle imibundu yawo; uyawuthambisa ngemikhizo ubusise amabele awo.
Fill up plentifully the streams thereof, multiply its fruits; it shall spring up and rejoice in its showers.
11 Uyawuphelelisa umnyaka ngenala, izinqola Zakho ziphuphume ngokugcwala.
Thou shalt bless the crown of the year of thy goodness: and thy fields shall be filled with plenty.
12 Amadlelo asenkangala ayaphuphuma; izintaba zigqokiswe ngenjabulo.
The beautiful places of the wilderness shall grow fat: and the hills shall be girded about with joy,
13 Amadlelo agcwele imihlambi yezimvu lezigodi zisibekelwe ngamabele; ziyamemeza ngentokozo zihlabelela.
The rams of the flock are clothed, and the vales shall abound with corn: they shall shout, yea they shall sing a hymn.
