AMARHUBO 3
Ukulila kokhathaziweko
1Irhubo lakaDavida lokha nabalekela u-Absalomu indodanakhe.
2Maye Somnini, izitha zami zinengi!
Banengi abangivukelako,
3iye, banengi abathi kimi:
“UZimu angeze amsindise.”
Sela
4Wena Somnini usihlangu mazombe kimi,
ubuyise isithunzi sami,
waphakamisa ihlokwami.
5Ngilila kuSomnini ngelizwi elikhulu;
yena ungiphendula asentabenakhe ecwengileko.
6Lokha nangilalako, ngizunywe buthongo;
ngivuka ngombana uSomnini ungisingathile.
7Amatjhumi aziinkulungwana wamajoni angiwesabi,
iye, lawo angivimbezele nca zoke.
8Sikima Somnini,
ungisindise, Zimami!
Wawahla zoke izitha zami emhlathini,
wephula namazinyo wabakhohlakeleko.
9Ukusindiswa kuvela kuSomnini.
Isibusiso sakho asibe phezu kwabantu bakho.
