Amahubo 95

1 Wozani sihlabelele ngentokozo kuThixo; kasihlokomeni kamnandi kulo iDwala lokusindiswa kwethu.

Come, we sing to Jehovah, We shout to the rock of our salvation.

2 Kasizeni phambi kwakhe ngokubonga simdumise ngamachacho langengoma.

We come before His face with thanksgiving, With psalms we shout to Him.

3 Ngoba uThixo unguNkulunkulu omkhulu, iNkosi enkulu ngaphezu kwabonkulunkulu bonke.

For a great God [is] Jehovah, And a great king over all gods.

4 Inziki zomhlaba zisezandleni zakhe, leziqongo zezintaba ngezakhe.

In whose hand [are] the deep places of earth, And the strong places of hills [are] His.

5 Ngolwakhe ulwandle ngoba walwenza, lezandla zakhe zawenza umhlaba owomileyo.

Whose is the sea, and He made it, And His hands formed the dry land.

6 Wozani, kasikhothame simkhonze, kasiguqe phambi kukaThixo uMenzi wethu;

Harden not your heart as [in] Meribah, As [in] the day of Massah in the wilderness,

9 lapho okhokho benu abangilinga khona bengizama, lanxa babekubonile engakwenzayo.

Where your fathers have tried Me, Have proved Me, yea, have seen My work.

10 Okweminyaka engamatshumi amane ngangisizondele lesosizukulwane; ngathi, “Bangabantu onhliziyo zabo ziyahlanhlatha, njalo kabazazanga izindlela zami.”

Forty years I am weary of the generation, And I say, 'A people erring in heart — they! And they have not known My ways:'

11 Ngakho ngamemezela ngesifungo ekuthukutheleni kwami ngathi, “Kabayikungena ekuphumuleni kwami.”

Where I sware in Mine anger, 'If they come in unto My rest —!'
