Amahubo 98

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

“A psalm.” Oh sing unto the Lord a new song; for he hath done wonderful things: his right hand and his holy arm have gotten him the victory.

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

The Lord hath made known his salvation: before the eyes of the nations hath he revealed his righteousness.

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

He hath remembered his kindness and his truth toward 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.

Shout joyfully unto the Lord, all the lands: break forth, and rejoice, and sing praises.

5 Hlabelelani eNkosini ngechacho, ngechacho lelizwi lokuhlabelela.

Sing praises unto the Lord with the harp, —with the harp, and the voice of psalmody.

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

With trumpets and the sound of cornet shout joyfully before the King, the Lord.

7 Kaluholobe ulwandle lokugcwala kwalo, umhlaba labahlala kuwo.

Let the sea roar, with all that filleth it; the world, with those that dwell therein.

8 Imifula kayitshaye izandla, izintaba zihlabelele ndawonye ngentokozo

Let the rivers clap their hands; let the mountains be joyful together,

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

Before the Lord; for he cometh to judge the earth: he will judge the world with righteousness, and people with equity.
