Amahubo 20

1 INkosi ikuphendule osukwini lokuhlupheka; ibizo likaNkulunkulu kaJakobe likuvikele.

For the end, a Psalm of David. The Lord hear you in the day of trouble; the name of the God of Jacob defend you.

2 Kayikuthumele usizo oluvela endaweni engcwele, ikusekele iseZiyoni.

Send you help from the sanctuary, and aid you out of Sion.

3 Kayikhumbule yonke iminikelo yakho, njalo yemukele umnikelo wakho wokutshiswa. (Sela)

Remember all your sacrifice, and enrich your whole burnt offering. (Pause)

4 Ikunike njengokwenhliziyo yakho, njalo igcwalise icebo lakho lonke.

Grant you according to your heart, and fulfil all your desire.

5 Simemeze ngentokozo esindisweni lwakho, lebizweni likaNkulunkulu wethu siphakamise iziboniso! INkosi igcwalise konke ukucela kwakho.

We will exult in your salvation, and in the name of our God shall we be magnified: the Lord fulfil all your petitions.

6 Sengisazi ukuthi iNkosi isindisa ogcotshiweyo wayo; izamphendula isemazulwini ayo angcwele ngamandla asindisayo esandla sayo sokunene.

Now I know that the Lord has saved his Christ: he shall hear him from his holy heaven: the salvation of his right hand is mighty.

7 Abanye bathembela enqoleni, labanye emabhizeni, kodwa thina sizakhumbula ibizo leNkosi uNkulunkulu wethu.

Some [glory] in chariots, and some in horses: but we will glory in the name of the Lord our God.

8 Bona bakhothanyisiwe bawa, kodwa thina sisukumile simi.

They are overthrown and fallen: but we are risen, and have been set upright.

9 Jehova, sindisa; inkosi isiphendule osukwini lokukhala kwethu.

O Lord, save the king: and hear us in whatever day we call upon you.
