Psalms 129

Often they have afflicted me

Ingoma yemiqanso. Sebengihluphe kakhulu kusukela ebutsheni bami katsho njalo u-Israyeli, ²sebengihluphe kakhulu kusukela ebutsheni bami, kodwa kabangehlulanga. ³Abalimi bawulimile umhlane wami benza imifolo emide.

⁴Kodwa uThixo ulungile; ungikhulule ezintanjeni zababi. ⁵Akuthi bonke abayizondayo iZiyoni babuyiselwe emuva beyangekile. ⁶Sengathi bangaba njengotshani obukhula ephahleni obubuna bungakakhuli; ⁷umvuni angeke agcwalisa isandla sakhe ngabo, loba lowo obuthayo agcwalise izingalo zakhe.

⁸Sengathi labo abadlulayo bangabokuthi, “Izibusiso zikaThixo mazibe kuwe; siyakubusisa ngegama likaThixo.”
