Amahubo 75

1 Kumqondisi wokuhlabela. Iculo elithi, “Ungabhidlizi.” Ihubo lika-Asafi. Ingoma. Siletha ukubonga kuwe, Oh Nkulunkulu, siletha ukubonga, ngoba iBizo lakho liseduze; abantu bakhuluma ngemisebenzi Yakho emangalisayo.

To the choirmaster al-tashcheth a psalm of Asaph a song. We give thanks to you - O God we give thanks and [is] near name your people recount wonders your.

2 Wena uthi, “Ngikhetha isikhathi esimisiweyo; yimi engahlulela okuqondileyo.

If I will take an appointed time I uprightness I will judge.

3 Nxa umhlaba kanye labantu bawo kuzamazama, yimi engizibamba ziqine izisekelo zawo.

[are] melting away [the] earth And all inhabitants its I I put in order pillars its (Selah)

4 Ngithi kwabayiziqholo, ‘Lingabe lisazincoma,’ ngithi kwababi, ‘Lingaziphakamisi impondo zenu.

I say to the boasters may not you boast and to the wicked [people] may not you lift up a horn.

5 Lingaphakamiseli uphondo lwenu phezulu ezulwini; lingakhulumi liziqhenya.’”

May not you lift up to the height horn your may you speak with a neck arrogance.

6 Kakho ovela empumalanga loba entshonalanga, kumbe ovela enkangala ongaphakamisa umuntu.

For not [is] from [the] going out and from [the] setting place and not from [the] wilderness exaltation.

7 Kodwa nguNkulunkulu owahlulelayo: uyamehlisa omunye, amkhweze omunye.

For God [is the] judge this one he brings low and this one he lifts up.

8 Esandleni sikaThixo kukhona inkezo egcwele iwayini eliphuphumayo elixutshwe ngeziyoliso; uyalithulula, kuthi bonke ababi bomhlaba balinathe kanye lenzece zalo.

For a cup [is] in [the] hand of Yahweh and wine it is foaming - full spiced drink and he has poured out some of this surely dregs its they will drain they will drink all [the] wicked [people] of [the] earth.

9 Kodwa mina ngizamemezela lokhu lanini; ngizahlabelela indumiso kuNkulunkulu kaJakhobe,

And I I will declare for ever I will sing praises to [the] God of Jacob.

10 yena othi, “Ngizazithulisa zonke impondo zababi, kodwa impondo zabalungileyo zizaphakanyiswa.”

And all [the] horns of wicked [people] I will cut off they will be lifted up [the] horns of [the] righteous.
