< U-Isaya 12 >
1 Langalolosuku uzakuthi: Ngiyakubonga, Nkosi, lanxa wawungithukuthelele, ulaka lwakho seluphendukile, njalo ungiduduzile.
In that day shalt thou say, “I will praise thee, O Jehovah, for, though thou hast been angry with me, Thine anger is turned away, and thou comfortest me.
2 Khangela, uNkulunkulu ulusindiso lwami, ngizathemba ngingesabi; ngoba iNkosi uJehova ingamandla ami lengoma yami, isibe lusindiso lwami.
Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and will not be afraid; For Jehovah is my glory, and my song; It is he who was my salvation.”
3 Ngakho ngentokozo lizakukha amanzi emithonjeni yosindiso.
Ye shall draw waters with joy from the fountains of salvation;
4 Lithi ngalolosuku: Bongani iNkosi, libize ibizo layo, lazise izenzo zayo phakathi kwezizwe, limemezele ukuthi ibizo layo liphakeme.
And in that day ye shall say, “Give thanks to Jehovah; call upon his name; Make known his deeds among the people; Give praises, for his name is exalted!
5 Hlabelelani eNkosini ngoba yenzile izinto ezinhle kakhulu; lokhu kakwaziwe emhlabeni wonke.
Sing to Jehovah, for he hath done glorious things; Be this known in all the earth!
6 Memeza, uhlabele ngentokozo, mhlali weZiyoni, ngoba oNgcwele kaIsrayeli mkhulu phakathi kwakho.
Cry aloud, shout for joy, O inhabitant of Zion, For great is the Holy One of Israel in the midst of thee!”
