< Psalms 60 >

1 To him that excelleth upon Shushan Eduth, or Michtam. A Psalme of David to teach. When he fought against Aram Naharaim, and against Aram Zobah, when Joab returned and slew twelve thousand Edomites in the salt valley. O God, thou hast cast vs out, thou hast scattered vs, thou hast bene angry, turne againe vnto vs.
Nkulunkulu, ubusilahlile, wasibhidliza, wathukuthela; buyela kithi.
2 Thou hast made the land to tremble, and hast made it to gape: heale the breaches thereof, for it is shaken.
Uzamazamisile umhlaba, wawuqhekeza; silisa imikenke yawo, ngoba uyazamazama.
3 Thou hast shewed thy people heauy things: thou hast made vs to drinke the wine of giddines.
Abantu bakho ubabonisile okulukhuni; usinathise iwayini lokudiyazela.
4 But now thou hast giuen a banner to them that feare thee, that it may be displayed because of thy trueth. (Selah)
Ubanikile labo abakwesabayo isiboniso, ukuze siphakanyiswe ngenxa yeqiniso. (Sela)
5 That thy beloued may be deliuered, helpe with thy right hand and heare me.
Ukuze abathandekayo bakho bakhululwe; sindisa ngesandla sakho sokunene, usiphendule.
6 God hath spoken in his holines: therefore I will reioyce: I shall deuide Shechem, and measure the valley of Succoth.
UNkulunkulu ukhulumile ebungcweleni bakhe. Ngizathaba, ngilabe iShekema, ngilinganise isihotsha seSukothi.
7 Gilead shalbe mine, and Manasseh shalbe mine: Ephraim also shalbe the strength of mine head: Iudah is my lawgiuer.
Ngeyami iGileyadi, njalo ngowami uManase, loEfrayimi ungamandla ekhanda lami, uJuda ngumnikumthetho wami.
8 Moab shalbe my wash pot: ouer Edom will I cast out my shoe: Palestina shew thy selfe ioyfull for me.
UMowabi ungumganu wami wokugezela; phezu kukaEdoma ngizaphosela inyathela lami; mayelana lami, wena Filisti, memeza ngokunqoba.
9 Who will leade me into the strong citie? who will bring me vnto Edom?
Ngubani ozangisa emzini oqinileyo? Ngubani ozangiholela eEdoma?
10 Wilt not thou, O God, which hadest cast vs off, and didest not go forth, O God, with our armies?
Kawusilahlanga yini, Nkulunkulu; kawuphumanga, Nkulunkulu, lamabutho ethu?
11 Giue vs helpe against trouble: for vaine is the helpe of man.
Siphe usizo ekuhlupheni, ngoba luyize uncedo lomuntu.
12 Through God we shall doe valiantly: for he shall tread downe our enemies.
KuNkulunkulu sizakwenza ngobuqhawe, ngoba yena uzanyathelela phansi izitha zethu.
