AMARHUBO 122
Ithabo lokuya ethempelini
1Ingoma yekhambo lokuya ethempelini; irhubo lakaDavida.
Ngajabula lokha nabathi kimi:
“Asiyeni endlini kaSomnini.”
2Iinyawo zethu sezijame
emasangwenakho, Jerusalema.
3IJerusalema lakhiwe njengedorobho
elihlanganiswe ngokuqinileko ndawonye,
4lapha iinkoro zikhuphukela khona,
iye, iinkoro zakaSomnini.
Ukuthokoza ibizo lakaSomnini
kubufakazi ku-Israyeli.
5EJerusalema kuneenhlalo zokugweba,
iye, iinhlalo zendlu kaDavida.
6Bawani ukuthula kweJerusalema nithi:
“Kwanga abakuthandako bangaba ngabavikelekileko.
7Kube nokuthula ngemithangalenakho
nokuvikeleka ngemibhotjhongwenakho.”
8Ngenca yabafowethu nabangani ngizakuthi:
“Ukuthula akube ngaphakathi kwakho, Jerusalema.”
9Ngenca yendlu kaSomnini
ngizakufuna okuhle ngawe.
