1Sono siyakhuluma
ekujuleni kwenhlitiyo yalomubi.
Yebo, lomubi
akamesabi Nkulunkulu.
2Utiphakamisa kangangekutsi
akabuboni nebubi besono sakhe.
3Inkhulumo yakhe ikuganga nemacebo;
ubuyekele bucotfo bakhe
nekwenta lokulungile.
4Utsi alele abe akha emachinga ekuganga,
sewuhamba ngendlela lembi,
akakwenyanyi lokubi aphambane nako.
5Simakadze, umusa wakho
ufikela amazulwini,
kwetsembeka kwakho kufikela emafini.
6Kulunga kwakho kunjengetintsaba letinkhulu,
tincumo takho tijule njengelwandle.
Simakadze, ulondvolota bantfu netilwane.
7Yebo, Nkulunkulu,
umusa wakho uligugu lelikhulu.
Bantfu basemhlabeni bayakhosela
emtfuntini wetimphiko takho.
8Badla indvodla yekudla,
badzimate besutse endlini yakho,
ubanatsise emanti
emfuleni wakho wentfokoto,
9ngobe nguwe umtfombo wekuphila,
kukhanya sikubona ekukhanyeni kwakho.
10Chubeka nawo lowo musa wakho,
kulabo labakwatiko,
uchubeke nekulunga kwakho
kulabacotfo ngenhlitiyo.
11Ungaluvumeli lunyawo lwalotigcabhako
kutsi lunginyatsele,
nalabangamesabi Nkulunkulu
kutsi bangicoshe.
12Lababi bawe khona lapho
bawiswe phansi, bangeke bavuke.
