God Is Wonderful
1 Save me, Lord God!
Hurry and help.
2 Disappoint and confuse
all who want to kill me.
Turn away and disgrace
all who want to hurt me.
3 Embarrass and shame those
who say, “We told you so!”
4 Let your worshipers celebrate
and be glad because of you.
They love your saving power,
so let them always say,
“God is wonderful!”
5 I am poor and needy,
but you, the Lord God,
care about me.
You are the one who saves me.
Please hurry and help!
Ntembezelo unokumbila bhatsho
(Lumbo 40:13-17)1 Shathilani kundiangula Ndzimu.
Yahwe, libilidzilani kundibhatsha!
2 Ibabo banovima butjilo gwangu
ngabahumanyiwe kakale babhatisiwe shoni.
Ibabo banoshaka kundihwisa zogwadza
ngabashandugwe bashayigwe buthu.
3 Ibabo banoti “Ahaa, Ahaa!”
Mubabhatise shoni.
4 Ibabo banomushaka ngabapululudze bamushathile.
Ibabo banoda jidzo lenyu ngabalebeleke
ngekusingapele kose bati, “Ndzimu nkulukulu!”
5 Koga imi ndi nshayi kakale ndosheta;
mundilibilidzile Ndzimu!
Ndimwi bhatsho yangu ne ntjidzi wangu,
imwi Yahwe, musinonoke!
