Amahubo 32
1 Ubusisiwe lowo osiphambeko sakhe sithethelelwe, osono sakhe sisitshekelwe.
Of David. Maschil. Happy is he who has forgiveness for his wrongdoing, and whose sin is covered.
2 Ubusisiwe umuntu iNkosi engambaleli ububi, lokungekho inkohliso emoyeni wakhe.
Happy is the man in whom the Lord sees no evil, and in whose spirit there is no deceit.
3 Lapho ngathula, amathambo ami aguga ngenxa yokubhonga kwami usuku lonke.
When I kept my mouth shut, my bones were wasted, because of my crying all through the day.
4 Ngoba emini lebusuku isandla sakho sasinzima phezu kwami; ubumanzi bami baguqulelwa ekomeni kwehlobo. (Sela)
For the weight of your hand was on me day and night; my body became dry like the earth in summer. (Selah)
5 Ngakwazisa isono sami, kangifihlanga isiphambeko sami, ngathi: Ngizavuma ngeziphambeko zami eNkosini. Wena wasuthethelela icala lesono sami. (Sela)
I made my wrongdoing clear to you, and did not keep back my sin. I said, I will put it all before the Lord; and you took away my wrongdoing and my sin. (Selah)
6 Ngenxa yalokhu ngulowo lalowo owesaba uNkulunkulu uzakhuleka kuwe ngesikhathi ongatholwa ngaso. Isibili, esikhukhuleni samanzi amakhulu kawayikufinyelela kuye.
For this cause let every saint make his prayer to you at a time when you are near: then the overflowing of the great waters will not overtake him.
7 Wena uyindawo yami yokucatsha, uyangilondoloza ekuhluphekeni, ungiphahle ngamahubo okukhululwa. (Sela)
You are my safe and secret place; you will keep me from trouble; you will put songs of salvation on the lips of those who are round me. (Selah)
8 Ngizakulaya ngikufundise endleleni ozahamba ngayo, ngizakweluleka, ilihlo lami libe phezu kwakho.
I will give you knowledge, teaching you the way to go; my eye will be your guide.
9 Ungabi njengebhiza, njengembongolo engelakuqedisisa, omlomo wayo onqandwa ngomkhala langetomu, hlezi kusondele kuwe.
Do not be like the horse or the ass, without sense; ...
10 Zinengi izinhlupheko zomubi, kodwa othembela eNkosini, umusa uzamphahla.
The sinner will be full of trouble; but mercy will be round the man who has faith in the Lord.
11 Jabulani eNkosini, lithabe, balungileyo; memezani ngokuthaba, lonke baqotho enhliziyweni.
Be glad in the Lord with joy, you upright men; give cries of joy, all you whose hearts are true.
