₁Ngenxa yeSiyoni angiyikuthula,

nangenxa yeJerusalema angiyikuphumula,

ukulunga kwalo kungakaphumi njengokukhanya

nokusindiswa kwalo njengesibani esivuthayo.

₂Izizwe ziyakubona ukulunga kwakho,

namakhosi onke inkazimulo yakho;

uyakubizwa ngegama elisha

eliyakunqunywa ngumlomo kaJehova.

₃Uyakuba-ngumqhele wodumo esandleni sikaJehova,

neqhele lobukhosi esandleni sikaNkulunkulu wakho.

₄Awusayikuthiwa oShiyiweyo,

nezwe lakini alisayikuthiwa iNcithakalo,

kepha uyakubizwa ngokuthi Ontokozo yami ikuye,

nezwe lakini ngokuthi oGanileyo,

ngokuba uJehova uyathokoza ngawe,

nezwe lakini lendile.

₅Ngokuba njengensizwa iganwa yintombi,

kanjalo amadodana akho ayakuganwa nguwe;

nangokuthokoza komyeni ngomakoti wakhe

uNkulunkulu wakho uyakuthokoza ngawe.

₆Ngimisile abalindi phezu kwezingange zakho, Jerusalema;

abayikuthula nakanye imini nobusuku;

nina eningabakhumbuzi ngoJehova maningaphumuli,

₇futhi ningamniki ukuphumula,

aze akhe iJerusalema,

alibeke libe-yindumiso emhlabeni.

₈UJehova ufungile ngesandla sakhe sokunene

nangengalo yamandla akhe, wathi:

Impela angisayikuzinika izitha zakho

amabele akho abe-ngukudla kwazo;

abezizwe abayikuliphuza iwayini lakho

olikhandlekeleyo,

₉kodwa abawaqoqileyo bayakuwadla,

bamdumise uJehova,

nabaliqoqileyo bayakuliphuza

emagcekeni endlu yami engcwele.

₁₀Phumani, niphume ngamasango,

niyilungise indlela yabantu;

hlelani, niwuhlele umendo,

niwakhiphe amatshe;

niphakamisele izizwe ibhanela*.

₁₁Bhekani, uJehova uyezwakala

kuze kube-sekugcineni komhlaba, ethi:

Yishoni kuyo indodakazi yaseSiyoni ukuthi:

Bheka, insindiso yakho iyeza;

bheka, umvuzo wakhe unawo,

nenkokhelo yakhe iphambi kobuso bakhe.

₁₂Bayakubizwa ngokuthi abantu abangcwele,

abahlengiweyo bakaJehova;

wena uyakuthiwa oFuniweyo,

uMuzi Ongashiyiwe.
