Amahubo 99

1 UThixo uyabusa, izizwe kazithuthumele; uhlezi esihlalweni sobukhosi phakathi kwamakherubhi, umhlaba kawuzamazame.

YHWH reigneth; let the people tremble: he sitteth between the cherubims; let the earth be moved.

2 Mkhulu uThixo eZiyoni; uphakeme ngaphezu kwezizwe zonke.

YHWH is great in Zion; and he is high above all the people.

3 Kabadumise ibizo Lakho elikhulu elesabekayo Yena ungcwele.

Let them praise thy great and terrible name; for it is holy.

4 INkosi ilamandla, ithanda ukwahlulela okuhle umisile ukwaba ngemfanelo; kuJakhobe usuwenzile okuqondileyo lokulungileyo.

The king's strength also loveth judgment; thou dost establish equity, thou executest judgment and righteousness in Jacob.

5 Dumisani uThixo uNkulunkulu wethu likhonze phansi kwesihlalo sakhe; yena ungcwele.

Exalt ye YHWH our Elohim, and worship at his footstool; for he is holy.

6 UMosi lo-Aroni babephakathi kwabaphristi bakhe, uSamuyeli wayekulabo ababelibiza ibizo lakhe; bambiza uThixo Yena wabaphendula.

Moses and Aaron among his priests, and Samuel among them that call upon his name; they called upon YHWH, and he answered them.

7 Wabakhulumisa ephakathi kwensika yeyezi; bagcina izimiso zakhe lezimemezelo azitshoyo kubo.

He spake unto them in the cloudy pillar: they kept his testimonies, and the ordinance that he gave them.

8 Oh Thixo Nkulunkulu wethu, wabaphendula; ku-Israyeli wawunguNkulunkulu othethelelayo, lanxa wabajezisa ngenxa yezenzo zabo ezimbi.

Thou answeredst them, O YHWH our Elohim: thou wast an El that forgavest them, though thou tookest vengeance of their inventions.

9 Phakamisani uThixo uNkulunkulu wethu, limkhonze entabeni yakhe engcwele, ngoba uThixo uNkulunkulu wethu ungcwele.

Exalt YHWH our Elohim, and worship at his holy hill; for YHWH our Elohim is holy.
