Amahubo 92
1 Kuhle ukubonga iNkosi, lokuhlabela indumiso ebizweni lakho, wena oPhezukonke;
A PSALM. A SONG FOR THE SABBATH DAY. [It is] good to give thanks to YHWH, And to sing praises to Your Name, O Most High,
2 ukutshumayela uthandolomusa wakho ekuseni, lothembeko lwakho ebusuku bonke,
To declare Your kindness in the morning, And Your faithfulness in the nights.
3 ngechacho elilentambo ezilitshumi, langogubhu lwezintambo, ngechacho elikhala kamnandi.
On ten strings and on stringed instrument, On (higgaion) with harp.
4 Ngoba ungithokozisile, Nkosi, ngomsebenzi wakho; ngizamemeza ngenjabulo ngemisebenzi yezandla zakho.
For You have caused me to rejoice, O YHWH, in Your work, I sing concerning the works of Your hands.
5 Mikhulu kangakanani imisebenzi yakho, Nkosi! Izikile kakhulu imicabango yakho.
How great Your works have been, O YHWH, Your thoughts have been very deep.
6 Isiphukuphuku kasazi, lesithutha kasikuqedisisi lokhu.
A brutish man does not know, And a fool does not understand this—
7 Lapho ababi behluma njengotshani, labo bonke abenzi bobubi bekhahlela, kuyikuze babhujiswe kuze kube phakade.
When the wicked flourish as an herb, And all workers of iniquity blossom—For their being destroyed forever and ever!
8 Kodwa wena, Nkosi, uphakeme kuze kube nininini.
And You [are] high for all time, O YHWH.
9 Ngoba khangela, izitha zakho, Nkosi, ngoba khangela, izitha zakho zizabhubha; bonke abenzi bobubi bazachitheka.
For behold, Your enemies, O YHWH, For behold, Your enemies perish, All workers of iniquity separate themselves.
10 Kodwa uzaphakamisa uphondo lwami njengolwenyathi; ngizagcotshwa ngamafutha amatsha.
And You exalt my horn as a wild ox, I have been anointed with fresh oil.
11 Lelihlo lami lizabona isiloyiso sami ezitheni zami, indlebe zami zizakuzwa mayelana lababi abangivukelayo.
And my eye looks on my enemies, Of those rising up against me, The evildoers, my ears hear.
12 Olungileyo uzahluma njengesihlahla selala, akhule njengomsedari eLebhanoni.
The righteous flourish as a palm-tree, He grows as a cedar in Lebanon.
13 Abahlanyelwe endlini yeNkosi, bazahluma emagumeni kaNkulunkulu wethu.
Those planted in the house of YHWH, In the courts of our God, flourish.
14 Bazabe belokhu bethela izithelo ebudaleni babo, bakhuluphale babeluhlaza,
Still they bring forth in old age, They are fat and flourishing,
15 ukutshumayela ukuthi iNkosi iqondile; ilidwala lami, njalo kakukho ukungalungi kiyo.
To declare that YHWH my Rock [is] upright, And there is no perverseness in Him!
