Amahubo 6
1 Nkosi, ungangikhuzi entukuthelweni yakho, ungangijezisi ekuvutheni kolaka lwakho.
To him that excelleth on Neginoth upon the eith tune. A Psalme of Dauid. O lord, rebuke me not in thine anger, neither chastise me in thy wrath.
2 Woba lomusa kimi, Nkosi, ngoba ngibuthakathaka. Nkosi, ngisilisa mina, ngoba amathambo ami ayakhathazeka.
Haue mercie vpon me, O Lord, for I am weake: O Lord heale me, for my bones are vexed.
3 Lomphefumulo wami ukhathazekile kakhulu: Kodwa wena, Nkosi, koze kube nini?
My soule is also sore troubled: but Lord how long wilt thou delay?
4 Phenduka, Nkosi, khulula umphefumulo wami; ungisindise ngenxa yomusa wakho.
Returne, O Lord: deliuer my soule: saue me for thy mercies sake.
For in death there is no remembrance of thee: in the graue who shall prayse thee? (Sheol h7585)
6 Ngikhathele yikububula kwami; ubusuku bonke ngintshezisa icansi lami, ngezinyembezi zami ngimanzise umbheda wami.
I fainted in my mourning: I cause my bed euery night to swimme, and water my couch with my teares.
7 Ilihlo lami lidliwe ngenxa yosizi, liyaguga ngenxa yezitha zami zonke.
Mine eye is dimmed for despight, and sunke in because of all mine enemies.
8 Sukani kimi, lonke benzi bobubi, ngoba iNkosi izwile ilizwi lokulila kwami.
Away from mee all ye workers of iniquitie: for the Lord hath heard the voyce of my weeping.
9 INkosi izwile ukuncenga kwami; iNkosi izakwemukela umkhuleko wami.
The Lord hath heard my petition: the Lord will receiue my prayer.
10 Zonke izitha zami zizayangeka zitshaywe luvalo kakhulu; zizaphenduka, zihle ziyangeke.
All mine enemies shall be confounded and sore vexed: they shall be turned backe, and put to shame suddenly.
