IHubo

Ungaqhubeki uthule ungenzi lutho, awu Nkulunkulu,

 2 Ngoba izitha zakho ziyaxokozela,+

Labo abakuzondayo bayaziphakamisa.

 3 Babumba amacebo obuqili befuna ukuhlasela abantu bakho,

Bayacebisana ukuthi bahlasele abantu bakho abaligugu.*

 4 Bathi: “Buyani sitshabalalise isizwe sabo,+

Ukuze ibizo labako-Israyeli lingaphindi likhunjulwe.”

 5 Babumba icebo lokuhlasela bendawonye,

Bayahlangana* ukuze balwe lawe,+

 6 Abako-Edomi, lama-Ishmayeli, labakoMowabi,+ lamaHagari,+

 7 LamaGebhali, lama-Amoni,+ lama-Amaleki,

LamaFilisti+ kanye lalabo abahlala eThire.+

 8 Ama-Asiriya+ lawo asemanyane labo,

Bancedisa amadodana kaLothi.+ (Selah)

 9 Yenza kubo lokho owakwenza kuMidiyani,+

Lokho owakwenza kuSisera loJabhini emfuleni uKhishoni.+

10 Babulawa e-Eni-dori,+

Baba ngumquba emhlabathini.

11 Yenza izikhulu zabo zibe njengo-Orebhi loZebhi,+

Wenze amakhosana abo abe* njengoZebha loZalimuna,+

12 Ngoba bathi: “Asilithatheni ilizwe uNkulunkulu ahlala kulo.”

13 Awu Nkulunkulu wami, benze babe njengesihlahlakazana sameva,+

Babe njengamahlanga aphetshulwa ngumoya.

14 Njengomlilo otshisa iganga,

Lanjengelangabi elihangula izintaba,+

15 Baxotshanise ngesiphepho sakho,+

Ubethuse ngomoya olamandla.+

16 Bayangise babe lenhloni,

Ukuze balidinge ibizo lakho, awu Jehova.

18 Kwangathi abantu bangakwazi ukuthi wena ibizo lakho nguJehova,+

Nguwe wedwa oPhezukonke emhlabeni wonke.+
