Ihubo 83
Ingoma. Ihubo lika-Asafi.
1 Oh Nkulunkulu, ungathuli uthi zwi;
ungangincitshi indlebe yakho,
ungameli khatshana lami, Oh Nkulunkulu.
2 Akubone ukuthi ziphithizela kanjani izitha zakho,
ukuthi ziwaqaphisa kanganani amakhanda azo.
3 Ngobuqili zakhela abantu bakho amacebo;
zisongela labo obathembileyo.
4 Bathi, “Wozani kasibabhuqe du njengesizwe,
ukuze ibizo lika-Israyeli lingaphindi likhunjulwe.”
5 Nganhliziyonye bawakha amacebo ndawonye;
bayahlangana beme ndawonye ukumelana lawe,
6 amathente ase-Edomi lama-Ishumayeli,
awamaMowabi lawamaHagari,
7 amaGebhali, lama-Amoni lama-Amaleki,
amaFilistiya labantu beThire.
8 Lama-Asiriya asebambene labo
ukuqinisa izizukulwane zikaLothi.
9 Yenza kubo njengoba wenza eMidiyani,
njengowakwenza kuSisera loJabhini emfuleni iKhishoni,
10 ababhubha e-Endo
baba njengezibi emhlabathini.
11 Yenza izikhulu zabo zibe njengo-Orebhi loZebhi,
wonke amakhosana abo abe njengoZebha loZalimuna,
12 abathi, “Kasiwathumbe
amadlelo kaNkulunkulu.”
13 Benze babe njengenkunkuma, Oh Nkulunkulu wami,
njengamakhoba ephetshulwa ngumoya.
14 Njengalokhu umlilo uhangula igusu
kumbe ilangabi lilumathisa izintaba,
15 kanjalo basukele ngesivunguvungu sakho
ubethuse ngesiphepho sakho.
16 Bahuqe ubuso babo ngehlazo
ukuze abantu balidinge ibizo lakho, Oh Thixo.
17 Sengathi bangayangeka lanini badunyazwe;
kungathi bangafa belehlazo.
18 Yenza bakwazi ukuthi wena, obizo lakho unguThixo
ukuthi wena wedwa ungoPhezukonke emhlabeni wonke.
