1Nkulunkulu,
ngisindzise ngelibito lakho,
ngemandla akho
ngente ngingabi nacala.
2Nkulunkulu, beka indlebe yakho
emthandazweni wami,
wemukele loko lengikushoko.
3Bafokati bangivukele, bayangihlasela,
tidlova letinelunya tifuna kungibulala,
atinendzaba naNkulunkulu. Cabanga.
4Ngempela,
Nkulunkulu ungumsiti wami,
Simakadze ungumvikeli wemphilo yami.
5Uyawungenanela
etitseni tami letenta lokubi,
ticitse ngekwetsembeka kwakho.
6Ngiyawunikela kuwe, Simakadze,
umnikelo wesihle,
ngidvumise libito lakho
ngobe lona lihle.
7Ngobe wena ungikhululile
kuyo yonkhe inhlupheko yami;
titsa tami ngitibuke ngeliso lekuncoba.
