Psalms 132— 2020

¹Khumbula Simakade, ngenxa kaDavide, zonke izinhlupheko zakhe.

²Wafunga kuSimakade, wenza isithembiso kuye onguMninimandla kaJokobe, wathi:

³“Angiyukungena ethendeni lendlu yami, angiyukugibela embhedeni wami,

⁴angiyukuwanika amehlo ami ubuthongo, nezinkophe zami, ukozela;

⁵ngingakamtholeli uSimakade indawo, indlu yonguMninimandla kaJakobe.”

⁶Sizwile ngakho sise-Efratha, sakuthola emasimini eJari.

⁷“Masingene endlini yakhe, sikhuleke ngasesenabelweni sezinyawo zakhe.

⁸Sukuma, Simakade, uye endaweni yakho yokuphumula, Wena nomphongolo wamandla akho.

⁹Abaphristi bakho mabembeswe ukulunga, abethembekileyo bakho bathokoze.”

¹⁰Ngenxa yenceku yakho uDavide mawungabufulathelisi ubuso bakho kogcotshiweyo wakho.

¹¹USimakade wafunga kuDavide, iqiniso angayukuguquka kulo, wathi: “Ovela okhalo lwakho ngiyombeka esihlalweni sakho sobukhosi.

¹²Uma abantwana bakho besigcina isivumelwano sami nobufakazi bami engiyobafundisa bona, impela abantwana babo bayohlala esihlalweni sakho kuze kube phakade.”

¹³USimakade uqoke iZiyoni, ulithandile ukuba libe yindawo yakhe yokuhlala, wathi:

¹⁴“Nansi indawo yami yokuphumula kuze kube phakade, ngizohlala kuyo, ngokuba yiMina engiyithandile.

¹⁵Ngiyakubusisa kakhulu ukudla kwalo, abantulayo ngiyakubasuthisa ngesinkwa.

¹⁶Abaphristi ngiyobembesa insindiso, abethembekileyo bayohlokoma ngenjabulo.

¹⁷“Ngiyakuhlumisa uphondo lukaDavide, ogcotshiweyo wami ngimlungisele isibani.

¹⁸Izitha zalo ngiyozithela ngehlazo, kepha kuye, umqhele wakhe uyokhazimula.”
