1 Dumisani iNkosi! Ubusisiwe umuntu oyesabayo iNkosi, othokoza kakhulu ngemithetho yayo.
Hallelujah! Blessed is the man who fears the LORD, who greatly delights in His commandments.
2 Inzalo yakhe izakuba lamandla emhlabeni; isizukulwana sabaqotho sizabusiswa.
His descendants will be mighty in the land; the generation of the upright will be blessed.
3 Imfuyo lenotho kuzakuba sendlini yakhe, lokulunga kwakhe kuzakuma kuze kube nininini.
Wealth and riches are in his house, and his righteousness endures forever.
4 Kuyabaphumela abaqotho ukukhanya emnyameni; ilomusa lesihawu lokulunga.
Light dawns in the darkness for the upright— for the gracious, compassionate, and righteous.
5 Umuntu olungileyo ngolesisa lowebolekisayo, wenza izindaba zakhe ngokulunga.
It is well with the man who is generous and lends freely, whose affairs are guided by justice.
6 Ngoba kayikunyikinywa phakade; olungileyo uzakuba sekukhunjulweni kuze kube nininini.
Surely he will never be shaken; the righteous man will be remembered forever.
7 Kayikwesaba umbiko omubi, inhliziyo yakhe iqinile, ithemba eNkosini.
He does not fear bad news; his heart is steadfast, trusting in the LORD.
8 Isekelwe inhliziyo yakhe, kayikwesaba, aze abone isiloyiso sakhe phezu kwezitha zakhe.
His heart is assured; he does not fear, until he looks in triumph on his foes.
9 Uhlakazile, uyabanika abayanga; ukulunga kwakhe kumi kuze kube nininini; uphondo lwakhe luzaphakanyiswa ngodumo.
He has scattered abroad his gifts to the poor; his righteousness endures forever; his horn will be lifted high in honor.
10 Omubi uyakubona, athukuthele; agedle amazinyo akhe, ancibilike; isifiso sababi sizabhubha.
The wicked man will see and be grieved; he will gnash his teeth and waste away; the desires of the wicked will perish.
