Umthandazo wekuvikelwa etitseni letisitsekile
Sihlabelelo saDavide lesetfulwe kumhlabelisi.
1Hhawu, Nkulunkulu!
Vani livi lami nangikhala,
ulondvolote kuphila kwami
elusongweni lwetitsa!
2Ngibhacise etinsongweni talababi,
eticunjini talabanemsindvo,
yebo, ticumbi talabenta lokubi,
3labalola lulwimi lwabo
lolukhaliphisa kwenkemba,
bajijimete ngemavi abo langimicibisholo,
4kuze bamdubule longenacala
bamdubule ngekumtuma, bangesabi.
5Badudana ngekwakha emacebo lamabi;
bacebisana ngekubeka tingibe emasitseleni,
bacabange batsi:
“Ngubani longasibona?”
6Basonga tento letimbi bese batsi:
“Silakhe ngebuciko lelicebo letfu.”
Ingcondvo nenhlitiyo yemuntfu kujulile!
7Kodvwa Nkulunkulu
uyawubadubula ngemicibisholo yakhe,
abagwaze ngekubatuma lokukhulu.
8Lulwimi lwabo luyawubabhubhisa,
bonkhe labababonako bayawunikina tinhloko.
9Bonkhe bantfu bayawushaywa luvalo
bashumayele ngalokwentiwe nguNkulunkulu,
bakucondze kahle lasakwentile.
10Lolungile uyawujabula ngaSimakadze,
akhosele kuye!
Bonkhe labacotfo ngenhlitiyo
bayawumdvumisa.
