Sihlabelelo saDavide lesiyimaskili lesetfulwe kumhlabelisi. Wasihlabela ngesikhatsi Dowegi waka-Edomi aye kuyawubikela Sawula watsi: “Davide ungenise endlini ya-Ahimeleki.”
1Wena sichwaga,
utigabatiselani ngalokubi?
Umusa waNkulunkulu uyawuma
kuze kube phakadze.
2Lulwimi lwakho lusonga lokubi
lunjengensingo lekhaliphako,
wena lowenta emacebo.
3Utsandza kakhulu bubi kunebuhle
utsandze emanga kunekukhuluma liciniso. Cabanga.
4Wena utsandza kulimata bantfu
ngelulwimi lwakho.
5Ngako-ke Nkulunkulu
uyawukubhidlita siphelane,
uyawukuhudvula
akukhiphe ekhaya lakho,
akuzuphune eveni lalabaphilako. Cabanga.
6Labacotfo bayawukubona batfutfumele,
bamhleke lusulu batsi:
7“Ase nibuke, naso phela sichwaga
lesingazange simente Nkulunkulu
abe yinqaba yaso,
kodvwa setsembela ebunyentini
bengcebo yaso,
sifuna kuba nemandla ngebunyoka baso.”
8Kodvwa-ke mine
ngifana nesihlahla lesiluhlata,
nemncumo losendlini yaNkulunkulu.
Umusa waNkulunkulu lomile
ngetsembele kuwo phakadze naphakadze.
9Ngiyawukubonga naphakadze
ngaloko lokwentile.
Ngiyawumemetela libito lakho
emkhatsini walabangcwele,
ngobe lona lihle.
