Abakhohlisi bazakugwetjwa
1Kumkhaleli; “Ungatjhabalalisi”; lakaDavida; iMikitamu.
2Nina abanamandla,
niyazikhupha iinqunto ezilungileko,
nigwebe abantu ngokufaneleko na?
3Awa! Eenhliziyweni zenu nisopha okumbi;
izandla zenu ziphehla inturhu ephasini.
4Iinkhohlakali ziphambuke zisabikwa;
abakhohlisi bonakele basabelethwa.
5Isihlungu sabo sinjengesenyoka;
bavala iindlebe zabo inga lirabi elisithulu,
6ukuze bangezwa ilizwi labosomlingo,
ngitjho nosomlingo ongumakadebona.
7Zimu, yephula amazinyo ngemlonyenabo!
Somnini, phohloza imihlathi yamabhubezana!
8Abanyelele njengamanzi ehlabathini,
batjhwabe njengotjani obugadangiweko.
9Ababe njengomhlobo wesibungu oncithika uphele,
babe njengombungu orhulukileko
ongazange ubone ilanga.
10Ngokuzuma okukhulu uZimu uzabasusa,
abavuthele njengommoya otjhisako basaphila.
11Abalungileko bazakuthaba nababona ukubuyiselela,
bahlanze iinyawo zabo eengazini zeenkhohlakali.
12Abantu bazakuthi:
“Ngambala kukhona umvuzo wabalungileko,
iye, ukhona uZimu ogwebako ephasini.”
