Psalms 84

1 Athandeka kangakanani amathente akho, Nkosi yamabandla!

2 Umphefumulo wami uyalangatha, yebo ngitsho, uyaphela yikunxwanela amaguma eNkosi. Inhliziyo yami lenyama yami kuyakhala kuNkulunkulu ophilayo.

3 Intaka layo iyathola indlu, lenkonjane isidleke sayo, lapho engabeka khona abantwana bayo, amalathi akho, Nkosi yamabandla, Nkosi yami, loNkulunkulu wami.

4 Babusisiwe abahlala endlini yakho, bazahlala bedumisa wena. Sela*.

5 Ubusisiwe umuntu omandla akhe akuwe, okukhona imigwaqo emikhulu enhliziyweni yabo.

6 Abadabula isihotsha seBaka basenza sibe ngumthombo; yebo, insewula iyakugoqela ngezibusiso.

7 Bahamba besuka emandleni besiya emandleni, ngulowo lalowo abonakale phambi kukaNkulunkulu eZiyoni.

8 Nkosi Nkulunkulu wamabandla, zwana umkhuleko wami, ubeke indlebe, Nkulunkulu kaJakobe. Sela*.

9 Nkulunkulu, sihlangu sethu, khangela ubone ubuso bogcotshiweyo wakho.

10 Ngoba usuku emagumeni akho lungcono kulenkulungwane. Ngikhetha ukuba sembundwini womnyango endlini kaNkulunkulu wami kulokuhlala emathenteni enkohlakalo.

11 Ngoba iNkosi uNkulunkulu ililanga lesihlangu; iNkosi izakupha umusa lodumo; kayibagodleli okuhle abahamba ngobuqotho.

12 Nkosi yamabandla, ubusisiwe umuntu othemba kuwe.
