Amahubo 65
1 Kumqondisi wokuhlabela. Ihubo likaDavida. Ingoma. Udumo lukulindele, Oh Nkulunkulu, eZiyoni; kuwe izifungo zethu zizagcwaliseka.
To him that excelleth. A Psalme or song of David. O God, praise waiteth for thee in Zion, and vnto thee shall the vowe be perfourmed.
2 Yebo, wena owuzwayo umkhuleko, bonke abantu bazakuza kuwe.
Because thou hearest the prayer, vnto thee shall all flesh come.
3 Kwathi lapho sisancindezelwa yizono, wazithethelela iziphambeko zethu.
Wicked deedes haue preuailed against me: but thou wilt be mercifull vnto our transgressions.
4 Babusisiwe labo obakhethayo ubasondeze bazohlala emagumeni Akho! Sigcwalisiwe ngezinto ezinhle zendlu Yakho, ezethempeli lakho elingcwele.
Blessed is he, whom thou chusest and causest to come to thee: he shall dwell in thy courtes, and we shall be satisfied with the pleasures of thine House, euen of thine holy Temple.
5 Uyasiphendula ngezenzo zokulunga ezimangalisayo, Oh Nkulunkulu Msindisi wethu, themba lemikhawulo yonke yomhlaba lenlwandle ezikude,
O God of our saluation, thou wilt answere vs with fearefull signes in thy righteousnes, O thou the hope of all the ends of the earth, and of them that are farre off in the sea.
6 owabumba izintaba ngamandla akho, lapho wena usuziqinisile ngamandla,
He stablisheth the mountaines by his power: and is girded about with strength.
7 owathulisa ukuduma kolwandle, ukuduma kwamagagasi azo, lokuhlokoma kwezizwe.
He appeaseth the noyse of the seas and the noyse of the waues thereof, and the tumults of the people.
8 Labo abahlala khatshana bayazesaba izimangaliso zakho; lapho okudabuka khona ukusa lokuhlwa okufiphala khona, uhlabela izingoma zentokozo.
They also, that dwell in the vttermost parts of the earth, shalbe afraide of thy signes: thou shalt make the East and the West to reioyce.
9 Uyawunakekela umhlaba uwuthelezele ngamanzi; uyawunothisa kakhulu. Imifula kaNkulunkulu igcwalisiwe ngamanzi ukuze abantu bazuze amabele, ngoba ukumisile wena lokho.
Thou visitest the earth, and waterest it: thou makest it very riche: the Riuer of God is full of water: thou preparest them corne: for so thou appointest it.
10 Uyayigcwalisa imisele yawo ngamanzi uyendlale kahle imibundu yawo; uyawuthambisa ngemikhizo ubusise amabele awo.
Thou waterest abundantly the furrowes thereof: thou causest the raine to descende into the valleies thereof: thou makest it soft with showres, and blessest the bud thereof.
11 Uyawuphelelisa umnyaka ngenala, izinqola Zakho ziphuphume ngokugcwala.
Thou crownest ye yeere with thy goodnesse, and thy steppes droppe fatnesse.
12 Amadlelo asenkangala ayaphuphuma; izintaba zigqokiswe ngenjabulo.
They drop vpon the pastures of the wildernesse: and the hils shalbe compassed with gladnes.
13 Amadlelo agcwele imihlambi yezimvu lezigodi zisibekelwe ngamabele; ziyamemeza ngentokozo zihlabelela.
The pastures are clad with sheepe: the valleis also shalbe couered with corne: therefore they shoute for ioye, and sing.
