Psalms 83
1 Nkulunkulu, ungathuli, ungabi yisithulu, ungali ukukhuluma, Nkulunkulu.
2 Ngokuba bheka, izitha zakho ziyaxokozela, nabakuzondayo bayakuvukela.
3 Ngobuqili, benza uzungu ngabantu bakho, baceba ukulwa nabafihliweyo bakho.
4 Bathi: “Wozani sibaqothule, bangabe besaba yisizwe, negama lika-Israyeli lingabe lisakhunjulwa.”
5 Baceba nganhliziyonye, benza isivumelwano ngawe:
6 amathende ka-Edomi aka-Ishmayeli, akaMowabi nakaHagari,
7 noGebhali, u-Amoni, u-Amaleki, iFilistiya nabakhile eThire.
8 Ne-Asiriya lahlangana nabo, laba yingalo yabantwana bakaLothi.
9 Yenza kubo njengakuMidiyani, nakuSisera nakuJabhini ngasemfuleni iKishoni,
10 ababhubhela e-Eni Dori, baba ngumquba emhlabathini.
11 Izikhulu zabo zenze zibe njengo-Orebhi noZebhi, nawo wonke amakhosana abo abe njengoZebha noZalimuna
12 ababethi: “Masizithathele amadlelo kaNkulunkulu.”
13 Nkulunkulu wami, benze bafane nothuli lwesikhwishikazana, bafane namakhoba emoyeni.
14 Njengomlilo oshisa ihlathi, njengelangabi elithungela izintaba,
15 baxoshe kanjalo ngesivunguvungu sakho, ubethuse ngesiphepho sakho.
16 Ubuso babo ubuthele ngehlazo, baze bafune igama lakho, Simakade.
17 Mabahlazeke, baphele amandla kuze kube phakade, mabahluleke, babhubhe,
18 bazi ukuthi nguwe wedwa ogama lakho linguSimakade, ungoPhezukonke emhlabeni wonke.
