Amahubo 81
1 Kumqondisi wokuhlabela. Ngendlela yegithithi. Elika-Asafi Hlabelelani ngentokozo kuNkulunkulu ongamandla ethu; memezani kakhulu kuNkulunkulu kaJakhobe!
To the choirmaster - on the Gittith of Asaph. Sing for joy to God strength our shout for joy to [the] God of Jacob.
2 Qalisani ukuhlabela, tshayani isigubhu, khalisani ichacho elimnandi lomhubhe.
Lift up music and beat a tambourine a harp pleasant with a lyre.
3 Khalisani uphondo lwenqama ekuThwaseni kweNyanga, lalapho inyanga isigcwele, ngelanga lomkhosi;
Blow at the new moon a ram's horn at the full moon to [the] day of festival our.
4 lesi yisimemezelo sika-Israyeli, umthetho kaNkulunkulu kaJakhobe.
For [is] a decree for Israel it an ordinance of [the] God of Jacob.
5 Wakumisa njengesimiso kuJosefa lapho aphuma wavukela ilizwe leGibhithe, lapho ezwa khona ulimi esasingaluzwa. Ngezwa ilizwi engingalaziyo lisithi:
A testimony - in Joseph he established it when went out he on [the] land of Egypt a language [which] not I knew I heard.
6 “Ngawethula umthwalo emahlombe abo; izandla zabo zakhululwa engcebethwini.
I removed from a burden shoulder his hands his from a basket they passed away.
7 Ekuhluphekeni kwenu lamemeza mina ngalikhulula. Ngaliphendula ngiphakathi komdumo weyezi; ngalilinga emanzini aseMeribha.
In trouble you called out and I rescued you I answered you in [the] hiding place of thunder I tested you at [the] waters of Meribah (Selah)
8 Zwanini, awu bantu bami, mina ngizalixwayisa aluba lingangilalela, Oh Israyeli!
Listen O people my so let me warn you O Israel if you will listen to me.
9 Lingabi lonkulunkulu wezizweni phakathi kwenu; lingabokhothamela unkulunkulu ongaziwayo.
Not it will be among you a god strange and not you must bow down to a god of foreignness.
10 NginguThixo uNkulunkulu wenu, owalikhuphayo eGibhithe. Vulani kakhulu umlomo wenu ngizawugcwalisa.
I - [am] Yahweh God your who brought up you from [the] land of Egypt make large mouth your and I will fill it.
11 Kodwa abantu bami kabangilalelanga; u-Israyeli wala ukungithobela.
And not it listened people my to voice my and Israel not it yielded to me.
12 Ngakho ngasengibayekela ngezinhliziyo zabo zobuqholo ukuthi balandele lokho abakufunayo.
And I gave over it in [the] stubbornness of heart their they walked in own schemes their.
13 Aluba abantu bami bengangilalela, aluba u-Israyeli engalandela izindlela zami,
If people my [will be] listening to me Israel in ways my they will walk.
14 masinyane nje ngingazibhuqa izitha zabo ngiphakamisele isandla sami ezitheni zabo!
Like a little enemies their I will subdue and on opponents their I will turn hand my.
15 Labo abamzondayo uThixo bangatshotshobala phambi kwakhe, kuthi isijeziso sabo sibe ngesaphakade.
[those who] hate Yahweh They will cringe to him and may it be time their for ever.
16 Kodwa lina lingaphiwa ingqoloyi enhle kakhulu; ngilisuthise ngoluju oluphuma edwaleni.”
And he fed him from [the] best of [the] wheat and from a rock honey I will satisfy you.
