Amahubo 129

1 Kanengi bangihluphile kusukela ebutsheni bami, katsho-ke uIsrayeli,

“Mara nyingi tangu ujana wangu wamekuwa wakinishambulia,” Israeli na iseme.

2 kanengi bangihluphile kusukela ebutsheni bami, kanti kabangehlulanga.

“Mara nyingi tangu ujana wangu wamekuwa wakinishambulia, lakini hawajanishinda.

3 Abalimi balima emhlana wami, bayenza yaba mide imifolo yabo.

Wakulima wamekuwa wakilima mgonngoni kwangu; wametengeneza matuta yao marefu.

4 INkosi ilungile, iqumile intambo zababi.

Yahwe ni mwenye haki; amezikata kamba za waovu.”

5 Kabayangeke babuyiselwe emuva bonke abazonda iZiyoni.

Wote waaibishwe na kurudishwa nyuma, wale wachukiao Sayuni.

6 Kababe njengotshani ephahleni, obubuna bungakakhuli,

Na wawe kama nyasi juu ya paa ambayo hunyauka kabla hayajakua,

7 ovunayo angagcwalisi ngabo isandla sakhe, lalowo obopha izithungo isifuba sakhe.

ambayo hayawezi kujaza mkono wa mvunaji wala kifua cha mfunga miganda.

8 Labadlulayo bangatsho ukuthi: Isibusiso seNkosi kasibe phezu kwenu; siyalibusisa ebizweni leNkosi.

Wale wapitao karibu wasiseme, “Baraka za Mungu na ziwe juu yako; Tunakubariki katika jina la Yahwe.”
