< Amahubo 11 >
1 Ngithembela eNkosini. Lingatsho njani emphefumulweni wami: Balekela entabeni yenu njengenyoni.
To the choirmaster of David in Yahweh - I have taken refuge how? will you say to self my (take flight *Q(K)*) mountain your a bird.
2 Ngoba, khangela, ababi bayagobisa idandili, balungisa umtshoko wabo entanjeni, ukuze batshoke emnyameni abaqotho ngenhliziyo.
For there! the wicked they bend! a bow they have prepared arrow their on [the] string to shoot in darkness to [people] upright of heart.
3 Nxa izisekelo zidilizwa, angenzani olungileyo?
If the foundations they will be torn down! [the] righteous what? does he do.
4 INkosi isethempelini layo elingcwele; iNkosi, isihlalo sayo sobukhosi sisemazulwini; amehlo ayo ayakhangela, inkophe zayo ziyahlola, abantwana babantu.
Yahweh - [is] in [the] temple of holiness his Yahweh [is] in the heavens throne his eyes his they see eyelids his they test [the] children of humankind.
5 INkosi iyamhlola olungileyo, kodwa omubi lothanda ubudlwangudlwangu, umphefumulo wayo uyamzonda.
Yahweh [the] righteous he tests and [the] wicked and [one who] loves violence it hates self his.
6 Uzanisa phezu kwababi imijibila, umlilo, lesolufa, lomoya otshisayo, kuzakuba yisabelo senkezo yabo.
He will rain down on wicked [people] snares fire and sulfur and [will be] a wind of burning heat [the] portion of cup their.
7 Ngoba ilungile iNkosi, iyathanda ukulunga; ubuso bayo buyabona oqotho.
For [is] righteous Yahweh righteousness he loves [the] upright they will see faces their.
