Amahubo 84
1 Athandeka kangakanani amathente akho, Nkosi yamabandla!
The salm of the sones of Chore. Lord of vertues, thi tabernaclis ben greetli loued;
2 Umphefumulo wami uyalangatha, yebo ngitsho, uyaphela yikunxwanela amaguma eNkosi. Inhliziyo yami lenyama yami kuyakhala kuNkulunkulu ophilayo.
my soule coueitith, and failith in to the porchis of the Lord. Myn herte and my fleische; ful out ioyeden in to quyk God.
3 Intaka layo iyathola indlu, lenkonjane isidleke sayo, lapho engabeka khona abantwana bayo, amalathi akho, Nkosi yamabandla, Nkosi yami, loNkulunkulu wami.
For whi a sparewe fyndith an hous to it silf; and a turtle fyndith a neste to it silf, where it `schal kepe hise bryddis. Lord of vertues, thin auteris; my king, and my God.
4 Babusisiwe abahlala endlini yakho, bazahlala bedumisa wena. (Sela)
Lord, blessid ben thei that dwellen in thin hous; thei schulen preise thee in to the worldis of worldis.
5 Ubusisiwe umuntu omandla akhe akuwe, okukhona imigwaqo emikhulu enhliziyweni yabo.
Blessid is the man, whos help is of thee; he hath disposid stiyngis in his herte,
6 Abadabula isihotsha seBaka basenza sibe ngumthombo; yebo, insewula iyakugoqela ngezibusiso.
in the valei of teeris, in the place which he hath set.
7 Bahamba besuka emandleni besiya emandleni, ngulowo lalowo abonakale phambi kukaNkulunkulu eZiyoni.
For the yyuer of the lawe schal yyue blessyng, thei schulen go fro vertu in to vertu; God of goddis schal be seyn in Sion.
8 Nkosi Nkulunkulu wamabandla, zwana umkhuleko wami, ubeke indlebe, Nkulunkulu kaJakobe. (Sela)
Lord God of vertues, here thou my preier; God of Jacob, perseyue thou with eeris.
9 Nkulunkulu, sihlangu sethu, khangela ubone ubuso bogcotshiweyo wakho.
God, oure defender, biholde thou; and biholde in to the face of thi crist.
10 Ngoba usuku emagumeni akho lungcono kulenkulungwane. Ngikhetha ukuba sembundwini womnyango endlini kaNkulunkulu wami kulokuhlala emathenteni enkohlakalo.
For whi o dai in thin hallis is bettere; than a thousynde. I chees to be `an out cast in the hous of my God; more than to dwelle in the tabernaclis of synneris.
11 Ngoba iNkosi uNkulunkulu ililanga lesihlangu; iNkosi izakupha umusa lodumo; kayibagodleli okuhle abahamba ngobuqotho.
For God loueth merci and treuthe; the Lord schal yyue grace and glorie.
12 Nkosi yamabandla, ubusisiwe umuntu othemba kuwe.
He schal not depriue hem fro goodis, that gon in innocence; Lord of vertues, blessid is the man, that hopith in thee.
