< Amahubo 46 >
1 UNkulunkulu uyisiphephelo sethu lamandla ethu, uyatholwa elusizo kakhulu ekuhluphekeni.
Elohim is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
2 Ngenxa yalokhu kasiyikwesaba ekuguqukeni komhlaba, lanxa izintaba zidilikela phakathi kwenlwandle.
Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;
3 Amanzi alo kawahlokome, akhaphazele, izintaba zizamazame ngokukhukhumala kwalo. (Sela)
Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. (Selah)
4 Kulomfula, izifula zawo zithokozisa umuzi kaNkulunkulu, indawo engcwele yamathabhanekele oPhezukonke.
There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of Elohim, the holy place of the tabernacles of the most High.
5 UNkulunkulu uphakathi kwawo, kawuyikunyikinywa; uNkulunkulu uzawusiza ngovivi lokusa.
Elohim is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: Elohim shall help her, and that right early.
6 Izizwe ziyaxokozela, imibuso izamazame; wakhupha ilizwi lakhe, umhlaba wancibilika.
The heathen raged, the kingdoms were moved: he uttered his voice, the earth melted.
7 INkosi yamabandla ilathi, uNkulunkulu kaJakobe uyinqaba yethu. (Sela)
YHWH of hosts is with us; the Elohim of Jacob is our refuge. (Selah)
8 Wozani libone imisebenzi yeNkosi, incithakalo eyenzileyo emhlabeni.
Come, behold the works of YHWH, what desolations he hath made in the earth.
9 Yenza izimpi ziphele kuze kube semkhawulweni womhlaba; yephula idandili, iqumaqume umkhonto, itshise izinqola emlilweni.
He maketh wars to cease unto the end of the earth; he breaketh the bow, and cutteth the spear in sunder; he burneth the chariot in the fire.
10 Thulani, lazi ukuthi mina nginguNkulunkulu, ngizaphakanyiswa phakathi kwezizwe, ngiphakanyiswe emhlabeni.
Be still, and know that I am Elohim: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.
11 INkosi yamabandla ilathi, uNkulunkulu kaJakobe uyinqaba yethu. (Sela)
YHWH of hosts is with us; the Elohim of Jacob is our refuge. (Selah)
