God's Glory in Creation
1 How clearly the sky reveals God's glory!
How plainly it shows what he has done!
2 Each day announces it to the following day;
each night repeats it to the next.
3 No speech or words are used,
no sound is heard;
4 yet their message goes out to all the world
and is heard to the ends of the earth.
God made a home in the sky for the sun;
5 it comes out in the morning like a happy bridegroom,
like an athlete eager to run a race.
6 It starts at one end of the sky
and goes across to the other.
Nothing can hide from its heat.
The Law of the Lord
7 The law of the Lord is perfect;
it gives new strength.
The commands of the Lord are trustworthy,
giving wisdom to those who lack it.
8 The laws of the Lord are right,
and those who obey them are happy.
The commands of the Lord are just
and give understanding to the mind.
9 Reverence for the Lord is good;
it will continue forever.
The judgments of the Lord are just;
they are always fair.
10 They are more desirable than the finest gold;
they are sweeter than the purest honey.
11 They give knowledge to me, your servant;
I am rewarded for obeying them.
12 None of us can see our own errors;
deliver me, Lord, from hidden faults!
13 Keep me safe, also, from willful sins;
don't let them rule over me.
Then I shall be perfect
and free from the evil of sin.
14 May my words and my thoughts be acceptable to you,
O Lord, my refuge and my redeemer!
Etumbaleko laKalunga moishitwa yaye nomeendjovo daye
Epsalme laDavid, la pewa enyakwa lolwiimbo.
1 Eulu olo hali hepaulula oshinge shaKalunga,
nevalelwa lalo otali udifa
oshilonga shomake aye.
2 Omutenya ohau shi lalekidile omutenya mukwao,
noufiku ohau shi ingidile oufiku mukwao,
3 nande kae nelaka ile omatumbulo,
ondaka yao i udike;
4 nondaka yao oya ya nedu alishe,
neendjovo dao fiyo okominghulo dounyuni.
Etango okwe li dikila ko onduda yalo.
5 Lo otali piti mo,
ngaashi omuhomboli ta piti mondjuwo yaye,
otali kaluka ngaashi omukwaita omuladi
mokutondoka molweendo lalo.
6 Koxulo yeulu otali piti ko,
neengeda dalo otadi li fikifa
koxulo yalo ikwao,
ndele kape na oshinima tashi kala
sha hondama moupyu womutenya walo.
7 Omhango yOmwene oya wanenena,
yo ohai hekeleke omwenyo;
ehepaululo lOmwene
oli shii okulineekelwa shili,
olo hali nongopaleke omalai.
8 Omalombwelo Omwene okwa yuka,
taa hafifa omutima;
omhango yOmwene oi yela sheke,
tai minikile omesho.
9 Etilo lOmwene ola yela;
tali kalelele fiyo alushe.
Eemhangela dOmwene odo oshili;
adishe oda yukilila.
10 Odo di noupuna u dule woshingoldo,
heeno, u dule woshingoldo shihapu
sha hoololekeka;
nodi nounyenye u dule womaadi eenyiki
ounyenyelela womashila ado.
11 Omupiya woye ote liefele yo
okulondwelwa kudo;
moku di diinina, otamu di ondjabi inene.
12 Olyelye ta kala e udite omapuko?
Mangulule nge mwaa inandi a shipulula.
13 Osho yo omupiya woye
mu amena kovashishimani,
ino va efa va pangele nge.
Osho ngaha handi kala ndihe noshipo
nonda manguluka menyono linene.
14 Eendjovo domokanya kange
nomadilongo omomutima wange
nae ku wapalele, Omwene,
emanya lange nOmukulili wange.
