Psalms 95
1 Come, let's sing for joy to the Lord! Let's shout in triumph to the rock of our salvation!
Wozani sihlabelele ngentokozo kuThixo; kasihlokomeni kamnandi kulo iDwala lokusindiswa kwethu.
2 Let's go before him with thanksgiving! Let's sing loudly to him in celebration!
Kasizeni phambi kwakhe ngokubonga simdumise ngamachacho langengoma.
3 For the Lord is a great God, a great king above all gods.
Ngoba uThixo unguNkulunkulu omkhulu, iNkosi enkulu ngaphezu kwabonkulunkulu bonke.
4 He rules over the depths of the earth and the heights of the mountains.
Inziki zomhlaba zisezandleni zakhe, leziqongo zezintaba ngezakhe.
5 The sea is his, because he made it; the dry land, because he formed it.
Ngolwakhe ulwandle ngoba walwenza, lezandla zakhe zawenza umhlaba owomileyo.
6 Come, let's enter in and worship, let's kneel before the Lord our Creator.
Wozani, kasikhothame simkhonze, kasiguqe phambi kukaThixo uMenzi wethu;
7 For he is our God, and we are the people he looks after like a shepherd, the flock he cares for. If you hear his voice calling you today,
ngoba unguNkulunkulu wethu, thina singabantu bedlelo lakhe, umhlambi awunakekelayo. Lamhla, nxa lisizwa ilizwi lakhe,
8 don't have a hard-hearted attitude, “as you did at Meribah, as you did that day at Massah in the desert,
lingazenzi lukhuni inhliziyo zenu njengoba lenzenjalo eMeribha, njengelakwenza ngaleliyana ilanga eMasa enkangala,
9 when your forefathers provoked me, testing my patience, even though they had seen everything I'd done.
lapho okhokho benu abangilinga khona bengizama, lanxa babekubonile engakwenzayo.
10 For forty years I was disgusted with that generation, and I said, ‘They are people who are unfaithful to me in their minds, and they refuse to accept my ways.’
Okweminyaka engamatshumi amane ngangisizondele lesosizukulwane; ngathi, “Bangabantu onhliziyo zabo ziyahlanhlatha, njalo kabazazanga izindlela zami.”
11 So in my frustration I vowed, ‘They will certainly not enter my rest.’”
Ngakho ngamemezela ngesifungo ekuthukutheleni kwami ngathi, “Kabayikungena ekuphumuleni kwami.”
