Praise the Name of the LORD

¹Haleluya! Dumisani igama likaJehova; mdumiseni nina zinceku zikaJehova

²enimi endlini kaJehova emagcekeni endlu kaNkulunkulu wethu.

³Dumisani uJehova, ngokuba uJehova muhle; hubelani igama lakhe, ngokuba limnandi.

⁴Ngokuba uJehova uzikhethele uJakobe, no-Israyeli ukuba abe yimfuyo yakhe.

⁵Impela ngiyazi ukuthi uJehova mkhulu nokuthi iNkosi yethu iphezu kwabo bonke onkulunkulu.

⁶Konke uJehova akuthandayo uyakwenza ezulwini nasemhlabeni, emanzini nasezinzulwini zonke.

⁷Ukhuphula izinkungu emikhawulweni yomhlaba, wenza imibani kube yimvula; ukhipha umoya ezingotsheni zakhe.

⁸Washaya amazibulo aseGibithe, awabantu kanye nawezilwane.

⁹Wathuma izibonakaliso nezimangaliso phakathi kwakho, Gibithe, phezu kukaFaro nezinceku zakhe zonke.

¹⁰Washaya izizwe ezinkulu, wabulala amakhosi anamandla:

¹¹uSihoni inkosi yama-Amori, no-Ogi inkosi yaseBashani, nemibuso yonke yaseKhanani.

¹²Wanika izwe labo laba yifa, laba yifa lika-Israyeli, isizwe sakhe.

¹³Jehova, igama lakho limi phakade; isikhumbuzo sakho, Jehova, sisezizukulwaneni ngezizukulwane.

¹⁴Ngokuba uJehova uyakwahlulela abantu bakhe, ahawukele izinceku zakhe.

¹⁵Izithombe zabezizwe ziyisiliva negolide, umsebenzi wezandla zomuntu.

¹⁶Umlomo zinawo, kepha azikhulumi; amehlo zinawo, kodwa aziboni.

¹⁷Izindlebe zinazo, kepha azizwa, nomoya awukho emlonyeni wazo.

¹⁸Abazenzayo bayafana nazo, bonke abazethembayo.

¹⁹Wena ndlu ka-Israyeli, mbonge uJehova; wena ndlu ka-Aroni, mbonge uJehova.

²⁰Wena ndlu kaLevi, mbonge uJehova; nina enimesabayo uJehova, mbongeni uJehova.

²¹UJehova makabongwe eSiyoni, yena owakhe eJerusalema. Haleluya!
