Amahubo 93

1 INkosi iyabusa; yembethe ubukhosi; iNkosi yembethe amandla; izibhincisile. Umhlaba lawo uqinisiwe, kawuyikunyikinywa.

The LORD reigns, he is clothed with majesty; the LORD is clothed with strength, with which he has girded himself: the world also is established, that it cannot be moved.

2 Isihlalo sakho sobukhosi samiswa kwasendulo; usukela ephakadeni.

Your throne is established of old: you are from everlasting.

3 Imifula iphakamisile, Nkosi, imifula iphakamise ukuholoba kwayo, imifula iphakamisile amagagasi ayo agubhazelayo.

The floods have lifted up, O LORD, the floods have lifted up their voice; the floods lift up their waves.

4 INkosi ephakemeyo ilamandla kulokuduma kwamanzi amanengi, kulamagagasi olwandle agubhazayo alamandla.

The LORD on high is mightier than the noise of many waters, yes, than the mighty waves of the sea.

5 Izifakazelo zakho ziqinisekile kakhulu; ubungcwele buyifanele indlu yakho, Nkosi, kuze kube ebudeni bezinsuku.

Your testimonies are very sure: holiness becomes your house, O LORD, for ever.
