Amahubo 110

1 INkosi yathi eNkosini yami: Hlala ngakwesokunene sami, ngize ngenze izitha zakho zibe yisenabelo senyawo zakho.

A psalm of David. Yahweh says to my master, “Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies your footstool.”

2 INkosi izathuma intonga yamandla akho ivela eZiyoni. Busa phakathi kwezitha zakho.

Yahweh will hold out the scepter of your strength from Zion; rule among your enemies.

3 Abantu bakho bazavuma ngosuku lwamandla akho, ebuhleni bobungcwele, kusukela esizalweni semadabukakusa kuza kuwe amazolo obutsha bakho.

Your people will follow you in holy garments of their own free will on the day of your power; from the womb of the dawn your youth will be to you like the dew.

4 INkosi ifungile, kayiyikuphenduka: Wena ungumpristi kuze kube nininini ngokwendlela kaMelkizedeki.

Yahweh has sworn, and will not change: “You are a priest forever, after the manner of Melchizedek.”

5 INkosi ngakwesokunene sakho izachoboza amakhosi osukwini lokuthukuthela kwayo.

The Lord is at your right hand. He will kill kings on the day of his anger.

6 Izakwehlulela phakathi kwezizwe, kugcwale izidumbu; izachoboza inhloko phezu kwelizwe elikhulu.

He will judge the nations; he will fill the battlegrounds with dead bodies; he will kill the leaders in many countries.

7 Izanatha esifuleni endleleni; ngakho-ke izaphakamisa ikhanda.

He will drink of the brook along the road, and then he will lift his head up high after victory.
