A Song or Psalm of Asaph.
1 Keep not thou silence, O God: hold not thy peace, and be not still, O God.
2 For, lo, thine enemies make a tumult: and they that hate thee have lifted up the head.
3 They have taken crafty counsel against thy people, and consulted against thy hidden ones.
4 They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance.
5 For they have consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against thee:
6 The tabernacles of Edom, and the Ishmaelites; of Moab, and the Hagarenes;
7 Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre;
8 Assur also is joined with them: they have holpen the children of Lot. Selah.
9 Do unto them as unto the Midianites; as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the brook of Kison:
10 Which perished at Endor: they became as dung for the earth.
11 Make their nobles like Oreb, and like Zeeb: yea, all their princes as Zebah, and as Zalmunna:
12 Who said, Let us take to ourselves the houses of God in possession.
13 O my God, make them like a wheel; as the stubble before the wind.
14 As the fire burneth a wood, and as the flame setteth the mountains on fire;
15 So persecute them with thy tempest, and make them afraid with thy storm.
16 Fill their faces with shame; that they may seek thy name, O LORD.
17 Let them be confounded and troubled for ever; yea, let them be put to shame, and perish:
18 That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, art the most high over all the earth.

1 Kalunga, ino mwena;

2 Tala, nkene mbo ye ku tonde ya kolokosha;

3 Otaa ende aantu yoye mevi;
otaa kotokele mbo ye li megameno lyoye.
4 Otaa ti: “Ileni, tu halakanithii po oshigwana shawo,
opo Israel a dhimbiwe sigo aluhe.”
5 Otaa uvathana ompangela yawo
notaa tungu elongelokumwe lyawo, ye ku kondjithe:
6 Aaedomi nAaismaeli, Aamoabi nAahagar,
7 aantu yaGebal, Ammon naAmalek,
Aafilisti nAatiro.
8 Assur naye wo okwa hangana nayo,
kuume kaAmmon naMoab omunankondo, yomoluvalo lwaLot.
9 Kalunga, ya ninga ngaashi wa ningi Aamidiana
nongaashi wa ningi Sisera naJabin pomulonga Kishon.
10 Owe ya dhipagele puEndor,

11 Aawiliki yawo ya ninga ngaashi wa ningile Oreb naSeeb;
ya sinda ngaashi wa sindi Seba naZalmunna.
12 Mboka ya popi ya ti:
“Otatu ka kwata po omayana gaKalunga.”
13 Kalunga, ya ninga ngaashi ontsi tayi pepwa po kombepo,
ngaashi iiyagaya tayi yi nokambiya.
14 Ngaashi epeya tali fike po omugulu,
nongaashi omulilo tagu hwameke oondundu,
15 ya tidha po noshikungulu shoye;
ya halutha noshihomo shoye.
16 Omuwa, ya sitha ohoni;
naa tseye oonkondo dhoye.
17 Naa sindike e taa tila sigo aluhe;

18 Naye ku tseye kutya ongoye awike Omuwa Omupangeliawike
kombanda yevi alihe.
