(A psalm by David for the music leader.)
Thanking the Lord for Victory
1 Our Lord, your mighty power
makes the king glad,
and he celebrates victories
that you have given him.
2 You did what he wanted most
and never told him “No.”
3 You truly blessed the king,
and you placed on him
a crown of finest gold.
4 He asked to live a long time,
and you promised him life
that never ends.
5 The king is highly honored.
You have let him win victories
that have made him famous.
6 You have given him blessings
that will last forever,
and you have made him glad
by being so near to him.
7 Lord Most High,
the king trusts you,
and your kindness
keeps him from defeat.
8 With your mighty arm, Lord,
you will strike down all
of your hateful enemies.
9 They will be destroyed by fire
once you are here,
and because of your anger,
flames will swallow them.
10 You will wipe their families
from the earth,
and they will disappear.
11 All their plans to harm you
will come to nothing.
12 You will make them run away
by shooting your arrows
at their faces.
13 Show your strength, Lord,
so that we may sing
and praise your power.
Epandulo molwefindano
Epsalme laDavid, la pewa enyakwa lolwiimbo.
1 Omwene, ohamba otai hafele eenghono doye,
nehafo la tya ngahelipi
tai hafele ekwafo loye!
2 Omahalelo omutima woye Ove we i pa,
naashi omilungu dayo da indila,
ino shi i shilika. Sela
3 Ove wa shakena nayo
u nomanangeko noupuna ouwa,
nowe i dika oshishani shoshingoldo komutwe wayo.
4 Oyo ye ku indila okukalamwenyo;
Ove nowe i pa omido dihapu, itadi xulu po fiyo alushe.
5 Molwekwafo loye etumbalo layo la ninga linene;
owe i tula eenghonopangelo noshinge.
6 Fiyo alushe owe i tula po
i ninge enangeko noupuna,
nowe i hafifa nenyaku linene koshipala shoye.
7 Osheshi ohamba oi li po
hai lineekele Omwene,
nomolwefilonghenda laau wOkombadambada
yo itai ka tengauka.
8 Eke loye itali kalele okuhanga
ovatondi voye aveshe,
nolulyo loye tali ka kwata
aveshe ava tave ku tondo.
9 Mokuholoka kwoye oto va ningi divadiva
va fa ediko la hanya;
mekeshuko laye
Omwene te va pona po hamudilu,
nomundilo tau ke va lungwinifa po.
10 Oiimati yavo Ove to i kombolola po kombada yedu
noludalo lavo omovana vovanhu.
11 Ngeenge tave ku dutile owii,
ndele tave ku ningi oukululufi,
itave shi dulu.
12 Osheshi Ove to va te po, va ye onhapo,
ndele to shoneke oipala yavo noikuti.
13 Omwene, yambuka po meenghono doye,
opo nafye ohatu ku imbile
nokufimaneka ouladinghono woye.
