< Amahubo 65 >
1 Kumqondisi wokuhlabela. Ihubo likaDavida. Ingoma. Udumo lukulindele, Oh Nkulunkulu, eZiyoni; kuwe izifungo zethu zizagcwaliseka.
For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David. A song. Praise waits for you, God, in Zion. Vows shall be performed to you.
2 Yebo, wena owuzwayo umkhuleko, bonke abantu bazakuza kuwe.
You who hear prayer, all men will come to you.
3 Kwathi lapho sisancindezelwa yizono, wazithethelela iziphambeko zethu.
Sins overwhelmed me, but you atoned for our transgressions.
4 Babusisiwe labo obakhethayo ubasondeze bazohlala emagumeni Akho! Sigcwalisiwe ngezinto ezinhle zendlu Yakho, ezethempeli lakho elingcwele.
Blessed is the one whom you choose and cause to come near, that he may live in your courts. We will be filled with the goodness of your house, your holy temple.
5 Uyasiphendula ngezenzo zokulunga ezimangalisayo, Oh Nkulunkulu Msindisi wethu, themba lemikhawulo yonke yomhlaba lenlwandle ezikude,
By awesome deeds of righteousness, you answer us, God of our salvation. You who are the hope of all the ends of the earth, of those who are far away on the sea.
6 owabumba izintaba ngamandla akho, lapho wena usuziqinisile ngamandla,
By your power, you form the mountains, having armed yourself with strength.
7 owathulisa ukuduma kolwandle, ukuduma kwamagagasi azo, lokuhlokoma kwezizwe.
You still the roaring of the seas, the roaring of their waves, and the turmoil of the nations.
8 Labo abahlala khatshana bayazesaba izimangaliso zakho; lapho okudabuka khona ukusa lokuhlwa okufiphala khona, uhlabela izingoma zentokozo.
They also who dwell in faraway places are afraid at your wonders. You call the morning’s dawn and the evening with songs of joy.
9 Uyawunakekela umhlaba uwuthelezele ngamanzi; uyawunothisa kakhulu. Imifula kaNkulunkulu igcwalisiwe ngamanzi ukuze abantu bazuze amabele, ngoba ukumisile wena lokho.
You visit the earth, and water it. You greatly enrich it. The river of God is full of water. You provide them grain, for so you have ordained it.
10 Uyayigcwalisa imisele yawo ngamanzi uyendlale kahle imibundu yawo; uyawuthambisa ngemikhizo ubusise amabele awo.
You drench its furrows. You level its ridges. You soften it with showers. You bless it with a crop.
11 Uyawuphelelisa umnyaka ngenala, izinqola Zakho ziphuphume ngokugcwala.
You crown the year with your bounty. Your carts overflow with abundance.
12 Amadlelo asenkangala ayaphuphuma; izintaba zigqokiswe ngenjabulo.
The wilderness grasslands overflow. The hills are clothed with gladness.
13 Amadlelo agcwele imihlambi yezimvu lezigodi zisibekelwe ngamabele; ziyamemeza ngentokozo zihlabelela.
The pastures are covered with flocks. The valleys also are clothed with grain. They shout for joy! They also sing.
