Amahubo 46
1 UNkulunkulu uyisiphephelo sethu lamandla ethu, uyatholwa elusizo kakhulu ekuhluphekeni.
To the chief music-maker. Of the sons of Korah; put to Alamoth. A Song. God is our harbour and our strength, a very present help in trouble.
2 Ngenxa yalokhu kasiyikwesaba ekuguqukeni komhlaba, lanxa izintaba zidilikela phakathi kwenlwandle.
For this cause we will have no fear, even though the earth is changed, and though the mountains are moved in the heart of the sea;
3 Amanzi alo kawahlokome, akhaphazele, izintaba zizamazame ngokukhukhumala kwalo. (Sela)
Though its waters are sounding and troubled, and though the mountains are shaking with their violent motion. (Selah)
4 Kulomfula, izifula zawo zithokozisa umuzi kaNkulunkulu, indawo engcwele yamathabhanekele oPhezukonke.
There is a river whose streams make glad the resting-place of God, the holy place of the tents of the Most High.
5 UNkulunkulu uphakathi kwawo, kawuyikunyikinywa; uNkulunkulu uzawusiza ngovivi lokusa.
God has taken his place in her; she will not be moved: he will come to her help at the dawn of morning.
6 Izizwe ziyaxokozela, imibuso izamazame; wakhupha ilizwi lakhe, umhlaba wancibilika.
The nations were angry, the kingdoms were moved; at the sound of his voice the earth became like wax.
7 INkosi yamabandla ilathi, uNkulunkulu kaJakobe uyinqaba yethu. (Sela)
The Lord of armies is with us; the God of Jacob is our high tower. (Selah)
8 Wozani libone imisebenzi yeNkosi, incithakalo eyenzileyo emhlabeni.
Come, see the works of the Lord, the destruction which he has made in the earth.
9 Yenza izimpi ziphele kuze kube semkhawulweni womhlaba; yephula idandili, iqumaqume umkhonto, itshise izinqola emlilweni.
He puts an end to wars over all the earth; by him the bow is broken, and the spear cut in two, and the carriage burned in the fire.
10 Thulani, lazi ukuthi mina nginguNkulunkulu, ngizaphakanyiswa phakathi kwezizwe, ngiphakanyiswe emhlabeni.
Be at peace in the knowledge that I am God: I will be lifted up among the nations, I will be honoured through all the earth.
11 INkosi yamabandla ilathi, uNkulunkulu kaJakobe uyinqaba yethu. (Sela)
The Lord of armies is with us; the God of Jacob is our high tower. (Selah)
