Amahubo 98

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

A Melody. Sing to Yahweh, a song that is new, For, wonderful things, hath he done, His own right hand and his holy arm, have brought him salvation.

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

Yahweh, 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 lovingkindness and his faithfulness towards 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 aloud to Yahweh, all the earth, Break forth and make a joyful noise and sweep the strings;

5 Hlabelelani eNkosini ngechacho, ngechacho lelizwi lokuhlabelela.

Sweep the strings to Yahweh, With the lyre, With the lyre, and the voice of melody;

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

With trumpets and the sound of a horn, Shout aloud, before the king—Yahweh.

7 Kaluholobe ulwandle lokugcwala kwalo, umhlaba labahlala kuwo.

Let the sea, roar, and the fulness thereof, The world, and they who dwell therein;

8 Imifula kayitshaye izandla, izintaba zihlabelele ndawonye ngentokozo

Let, the floods, clap their hands, Together, let, the mountains, make a joyful noise,

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

Before Yahweh, for he is coming—to judge the earth, —He will judge the world, in righteousness, And the peoples, with equity.
