Amahubo 135

1 Dumisani iNkosi! Dumisani ibizo leNkosi, dumisani lina zinceku zeNkosi,

2 elimi endlini yeNkosi, emagumeni endlu kaNkulunkulu wethu.

3 Dumisani iNkosi, ngoba iNkosi ilungile; hlabelelani indumiso ebizweni layo, ngoba kumnandi.

4 Ngoba iNkosi izikhethele uJakobe, uIsrayeli abe ngokuligugu kwakhe okukhethekileyo.

5 Ngoba mina ngiyazi ukuthi iNkosi inkulu, ukuthi iNkosi yethu iphezu kwabo bonke onkulunkulu.

6 Konke iNkosi ekuthandayo iyakwenza, emazulwini lemhlabeni, ezinlwandle lenzikini zonke.

7 Yenza izinkungu zenyuke emikhawulweni yomhlaba, yenzela izulu imibane, ikhupha umoya eziphaleni zayo.

8 Eyatshaya izibulo leGibhithe, kusukela emuntwini kuze kube senyamazaneni.

9 Yathumela izibonakaliso lezimangaliso phakathi kwakho, Gibhithe, phezu kukaFaro laphezu kwenceku zakhe zonke.

10 Eyatshaya izizwe ezinengi, yabulala amakhosi alamandla,

11 uSihoni inkosi yamaAmori, loOgi inkosi yeBashani, layo yonke imibuso yeKhanani,

12 yanikela ilizwe labo laba yilifa, ilifa likaIsrayeli, isizwe sayo.

13 Nkosi, ibizo lakho limi kuze kube phakade, ukukhunjulwa kwakho, Nkosi, kusizukulwana ngesizukulwana.

14 Ngoba iNkosi izakwehlulela abantu bayo, izazisola mayelana lezinceku zayo.

15 Izithombe zezizwe ziyisiliva legolide, umsebenzi wezandla zomuntu.

16 Zilemilomo, kodwa kazikhulumi; zilamehlo, kodwa kaziboni;

17 zilendlebe, kodwa kazizwa; lomoya kawukho emlonyeni wazo.

18 Abazenzayo bafanana lazo, laye wonke othembela kuzo.

19 Wena ndlu kaIsrayeli, bongani iNkosi; wena ndlu kaAroni, bongani iNkosi;

20 wena ndlu kaLevi, bongani iNkosi. Lina eliyesabayo iNkosi, bongani iNkosi.

21 Kayibongwe iNkosi iseZiyoni, ehlala eJerusalema. Dumisani iNkosi!
