Amahubo 98

1 Hlabelelani iNkosi ingoma entsha, ngoba yenzile izimangaliso; isandla sayo sokunene lengalo yayo engcwele kuyizuzele ukunqoba.

A Psalm. O make a new song to the Lord, because he has done works of wonder; with his right hand, and with his holy arm, he has overcome.

2 INkosi yazisile usindiso lwayo, yembule ukulunga kwayo emehlweni ezizwe.

The Lord has given to all the knowledge of his salvation; he has made clear his righteousness in the eyes of the nations.

3 Ikhumbule umusa wayo leqiniso layo kuyo indlu kaIsrayeli. Imikhawulo yonke yomhlaba ibonile usindiso lukaNkulunkulu wethu.

He has kept in mind his mercy and his unchanging faith to the house of Israel; all the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.

4 Hlokomani ngentokozo eNkosini, mhlaba wonke, lenze umsindo omkhulu, lithokoze, lihlabele indumiso.

Let all the earth send out a glad cry to the Lord; sounding with a loud voice, and praising him with songs of joy.

5 Hlabelelani eNkosini ngechacho, ngechacho lelizwi lokuhlabelela.

Make melody to the Lord with instruments of music; with a corded instrument and the voice of song.

6 Ngezimpondo langomsindo wophondo lwenqama hlokomani ngentokozo phambi kweNkosi, uJehova.

With wind instruments and the sound of the horn, make a glad cry before the Lord, the King.

7 Kaluholobe ulwandle lokugcwala kwalo, umhlaba labahlala kuwo.

Let the sea be thundering, with all its waters; the world, and all who are living in it;

8 Imifula kayitshaye izandla, izintaba zihlabelele ndawonye ngentokozo

Let the streams make sounds of joy with their hands; let the mountains be glad together,

9 phambi kweNkosi, ngoba iyeza ukwahlulela umhlaba; izawahlulela umhlaba ngokulunga, lezizwe ngokuqonda.

Before the Lord, for he has come as judge of the earth; judging the world in righteousness, and giving true decisions for the peoples.
