Amahubo 56
1 Woba lomusa kimi, Nkulunkulu, ngoba umuntu ufuna ukungiginya; usuku lonke esilwa uyangicindezela.
`In Ebreu thus, To the ouercomyng on the doumb culuer of fer drawing awei, the comely song of Dauid, whanne Filisteis helden hym in Geth. `In Jeroms translacioun thus, To the ouercomer for the doumb culuer, for it yede awei fer. Dauid meke and symple made this salm, whanne Palesteyns helden hym in Geth. God, haue thou merci on me, for a man hath defoulid me; al dai he impugnyde, and troublide me.
2 Izitha zami zifuna ukungiginya usuku lonke, ngoba zinengi ezilwa zimelene lami ngokuziphakamisa.
Myn enemyes defouliden me al dai; for manye fiyteris weren ayens me.
3 Mhla ngisesaba, mina ngizathemba kuwe.
Of the hiynesse of dai Y schal drede; but God Y schal hope in thee.
4 KuNkulunkulu ngizadumisa ilizwi lakhe, kuNkulunkulu ngiyathemba, angiyikwesaba. Inyama ingenzani kimi?
In God Y schal preise my wordis; Y hopide in God, Y schal not drede what thing fleisch schal do to me.
5 Usuku lonke baphambanisa amazwi ami; yonke imicabango yabo imelene lami ngokubi.
Al dai thei cursiden my wordis; ayens me alle her thouytis weren in to yuel.
6 Bayabuthana, bagugube, bona baqaphelise izinyathelo zami, lapho belindele umphefumulo wami.
Thei schulen dwelle, and schulen hide; thei schulen aspie myn heele.
7 Bazaphunyuka yini ngobubi? Ekuthukutheleni wisela phansi abantu, Nkulunkulu.
As thei abiden my lijf, for nouyt schalt thou make hem saaf; in ire thou schalt breke togidre puplis.
8 Ukuzulazula kwami ukubalile; wena faka izinyembezi zami embodleleni yakho; kazikho ogwalweni lwakho yini?
God, Y schewide my lijf to thee; thou hast set my teeris in thi siyt. As and in thi biheest, Lord;
9 Khona izitha zami zizabuyela emuva mhla ngibizayo. Ngiyakwazi lokhu ukuthi uNkulunkulu ukimi.
thanne myn enemyes schulen be turned abak. In what euere dai Y schal inwardli clepe thee; lo! Y haue knowe, that thou art my God.
10 KuNkulunkulu ngizadumisa ilizwi, eNkosini ngizadumisa ilizwi.
In God Y schal preise a word; in the Lord Y schal preyse a word.
11 KuNkulunkulu ngiyathemba, angiyikwesaba. Umuntu angenzani kimi?
Y schal hope in God; Y schal not drede what thing a man schal do to me.
12 Nkulunkulu, izifungo zakho ziphezu kwami; ngizabuyisela kuwe izindumiso.
God, thin auowis ben in me; whiche Y schal yelde heriyngis to thee.
13 Ngoba uwukhulule umphefumulo wami ekufeni, yebo, inyawo zami ekukhubekeni, ukuze ngihambe phambi kukaNkulunkulu ekukhanyeni kwabaphilayo.
For thou hast delyuerid my lijf fro deth, and my feet fro slidyng; that Y pleese bifore God in the liyt of hem that lyuen.
