Psalms 96

1 Hlabelani eNkosini ingoma entsha; hlabelelani eNkosini, mhlaba wonke.

2 Hlabelani eNkosini, lidumise ibizo layo, litshumayele usindiso lwayo insuku ngensuku.

3 Landisani udumo lwayo phakathi kwezizwe, izimangaliso zayo phakathi kwabantu bonke.

4 Ngoba yinkulu iNkosi, ifanele ukudunyiswa kakhulu, yona iyesabeka phezu kwabonkulunkulu bonke.

5 Ngoba bonke onkulunkulu bezizwe bayizithombe; kodwa iNkosi yenza amazulu.

6 Ubukhosi lenkazimulo kuphambi kwayo, amandla lobuhle kusendlini yayo engcwele.

7 Inikeni iNkosi, zizukulwana zezizwe, inikeni iNkosi udumo lamandla.

8 Inikeni iNkosi udumo lwebizo layo; lethani umnikelo, lingene emagumeni ayo.

9 Ikhonzeni iNkosi ebuhleni bobungcwele; lithuthumele phambi kwayo, mhlaba wonke.

10 Tshonini phakathi kwezizwe: INkosi iyabusa. Lomhlaba umisiwe, kawuyikunyikinyeka; izabahlulela abantu ngokuqonda.

11 Kawathokoze amazulu, lomhlaba ujabule; kaluhlokome ulwandle lokugcwala kwalo.

12 Iganga kalithabe lakho konke okukulo. Khona izihlahla zonke zegusu zizahlabela ngentokozo

13 phambi kweNkosi, ngoba iyeza, ngoba iyeza ukwahlulela umhlaba; izakwahlulela umhlaba ngokulunga, labantu ngeqiniso layo.
