1 Dumisani iNkosi! Dumisani, zinceku zeNkosi, dumisani ibizo leNkosi.
Praise the LORD. Praise, you servants of the LORD, praise the name of the LORD.
2 Kalibongwe ibizo leNkosi kusukela khathesi njalo kuze kube nininini.
Blessed be the name of the LORD, from this time forth and forevermore.
3 Kusukela ekuphumeni kwelanga kuze kube sekutshoneni kwalo ibizo leNkosi kalidunyiswe.
From the rising of the sun to the going down of the same, The LORD's name is to be praised.
4 INkosi iphakeme phezu kwezizwe zonke, ubukhosi bayo buphezu kwamazulu.
The LORD is high above all nations, his glory above the heavens.
5 Ngubani onjengeNkosi uNkulunkulu wethu, ehlezi phezulu,
Who is like the LORD, our God, who has his seat on high,
6 ekhothama ukukhangela emazulwini lemhlabeni?
Who stoops down to see in heaven and in the earth?
7 Iyamvusa umyanga ethulini, imphakamise osweleyo enqunjini yomquba,
He raises up the poor out of the dust. Lifts up the needy from the ash heap;
8 ukuze imhlalise leziphathamandla, kanye leziphathamandla zabantu bayo.
that he may set him with princes, even with the princes of his people.
9 Ihlalisa inyumba emzini, unina wabantwana othokozayo. Dumisani iNkosi!
He settles the barren woman in her home, as a joyful mother of children. Praise the LORD.
