2 Uyinikile isifiso senhliziyo yayo, kawuyincitshanga isicelo sendebe zayo. (Sela)
You have given me/him the things that I/he [SYN] desired and you have not refused to do what I requested you to do.

In answer to my/his prayer, you enabled me/him to succeed and prosper. You placed a gold crown on my/his head.
4 Yacela impilo kuwe, wayinika yona, ubude bezinsuku kuze kube nini lanini.
I/He asked you to enable me/him to live [for a long time], and that is what you gave me/him, a very long [HYP] life.

You will bless me/him forever, and you have caused me/him to be joyful in your presence.
7 Ngoba inkosi ithembela kuJehova, langomusa woPhezukonke kayiyikunyikinywa.
Yahweh, you are God Almighty, and (I trust/the king trusts) in you. Because you faithfully love me/him, disastrous things will never happen to me/him.
8 Isandla sakho sizazithola zonke izitha zakho, lesandla sakho sokunene sizabathola labo abakuzondayo.
You will enable me/him to capture [MTY] all my/his enemies and all those who hate me/him.
9 Uzabenza babe njengesithando somlilo esikhathini solaka lwakho. INkosi izabaginya ekuthukutheleni kwayo, lomlilo uzabaqothula.
When you appear, you will throw them into a fiery furnace. Because you are angry [with them], you will get rid of them; the fire will burn them up.
10 Uzachitha isithelo sabo emhlabeni, lenzalo yabo phakathi kwabantwana babantu.
You will remove their children from this earth; their descendants will all disappear.
11 Ngoba bezimisela okubi bemelene lawe, beceba ugobe, bazakwehluleka.
They planned to harm you, but what they plan will never succeed.
12 Ngoba uzabafulathelisa, ngezintambo zedandili uzalungisa imitshoko imelane lobuso babo.
You will cause them to run away [IDM] by shooting arrows at them.
13 Phakama, Nkosi, ngamandla akho! Sizahlabela sidumise amandla akho.
Yahweh, show us that you are very strong! When you do that, while we sing we will praise you because you are very powerful.
