3Kuyawuze kube ngunini nidvumela lendvodza
nine nonkhe kuze niyibulale?
Injengelubondza lolutjekele kuwa,
nanjengelutsango loludzilikako.
4Bafuna licebo lekumketula

Ngemilomo yabo bayabusisa,
kodvwa etinhlitiyweni tabo bayacalekisa. Cabanga.
5Mphefumulo wami,

ngingeke ngitanyatanyiswe.
7Insindziso yami neludvumo lwami

Nome bafakwa esikalini kanyekanye,

10Ungalibeki litsemba lakho ebudloveni,
ningatilulati ngematsemba lalite nekugcekeza,
nome ngabe ingcebo iyandza,

Ngobe wena umuntfu umnika umvuzo
