1 Wozani sihlabelele ngentokozo kuThixo; kasihlokomeni kamnandi kulo iDwala lokusindiswa kwethu.
O come, let us sing to the LORD; Let us raise a voice of joy to the rock of our salvation!
2 Kasizeni phambi kwakhe ngokubonga simdumise ngamachacho langengoma.
Let us come into his presence with thanksgiving, And sing joyfully to him with psalms!
3 Ngoba uThixo unguNkulunkulu omkhulu, iNkosi enkulu ngaphezu kwabonkulunkulu bonke.
For Jehovah is a great God; Yea, a great king over all gods.
4 Inziki zomhlaba zisezandleni zakhe, leziqongo zezintaba ngezakhe.
In his hands are the depths of the earth; His also are the heights of the mountains.
5 Ngolwakhe ulwandle ngoba walwenza, lezandla zakhe zawenza umhlaba owomileyo.
The sea is his, and he made it; The dry land also his hands formed.
6 Wozani, kasikhothame simkhonze, kasiguqe phambi kukaThixo uMenzi wethu;
O come, let us worship and bow down! Let us kneel before the LORD, our maker!
7 ngoba unguNkulunkulu wethu, thina singabantu bedlelo lakhe, umhlambi awunakekelayo. Lamhla, nxa lisizwa ilizwi lakhe,
For he is our God, And we are the people of his pasture and the flock of his hand. O that ye would now hear his voice!
8 lingazenzi lukhuni inhliziyo zenu njengoba lenzenjalo eMeribha, njengelakwenza ngaleliyana ilanga eMasa enkangala,
“Harden not your hearts as at Meribah [[the strife]], As in the day of temptation [[Massah]] in the wilderness,
9 lapho okhokho benu abangilinga khona bengizama, lanxa babekubonile engakwenzayo.
Where your fathers tempted me And tried me, although they had seen my works.
10 Okweminyaka engamatshumi amane ngangisizondele lesosizukulwane; ngathi, “Bangabantu onhliziyo zabo ziyahlanhlatha, njalo kabazazanga izindlela zami.”
Forty years was I offended with that generation: And I said, 'They are a people of a perverse heart, And who have no regard to my ways.'
11 Ngakho ngamemezela ngesifungo ekuthukutheleni kwami ngathi, “Kabayikungena ekuphumuleni kwami.”
Therefore I sware, in my wrath, That they should not enter into my rest.”
