UJehova ungumsizi wabamelana namashayakhothe
Kumholi wokuhlabelela; ngeSheminiti*; ihubo likaDavide
1Siza, Jehova, ngokuba owesaba uNkulunkulu akasekho,
ngokuba banyamalele abathembekileyo kubantwana babantu.
2Bakhuluma amanga, kwaba-yilowo nalowo kumakhelwane wakhe;
ngezindebe ezithophayo bakhuluma nganhliziyombili.
3UJehova uyakunquma zonke izindebe ezithophayo,
ulimi olukhuluma amazwi amakhulu,
4abathi: Siyakunqoba ngolimi lwethu;
izindebe zethu zinathi; ngubani oyinkosi phezu kwethu na?
5Ngenxa yokubandezeka kwabahluphekileyo nangokububula kwabampofu
ngizakuvuka kalokhu, usho uJehova,
ngimbeke ekusindisweni akulangazelelayo.
6Amazwi kaJehova angamazwi ahlanzekileyo,
anjengesiliva elihlanjululwé esithandweni emhlabathini,
lihlanjululwé kasikhombisa.
7Wena-Jehova uyakubagcina,
ubavikele kulesisizukulwane kuze kube-phakade.
8Abangamesabi uNkulunkulu bayashanguza nxazonke,
lapho amanyala ephakeme kubantwana babantu.
