Ludvumo lwaNkulunkulu nesitfunti semuntfu
Sihlabelelo saDavide lesetfulwe kumhlabelisi kutsi sihlatjelwe ngelugubhu lwegithithi.
1Maye, Simakadze, Nkhosi yetfu!
Libito lakho liyababateka
emhlabeni wonkhe!
Wena ubeke ludvumo lwebukhosi bakho ngetulu kwemazulu.
2Indvumiso yemandla akho uyibeke
emilonyeni yetinswane neyebantfwana.
Loko ukwentele kutibindzisa
titsa takho nalabamelene nawe.
3Nangibuka etulu esibhakabhakeni sakho
ngibona umsebenti wetandla takho,
inyanga netinkhanyeti lotimisile, ngitsi:
4“Pho, umuntfu abeyini-ke
kutsi ungadzimate umkhumbule;
nendvodzana yemuntfu beyiyini-ke
kutsi ungadzimate uyinakekele?”
5Noko umente wacishe waba ngangawe,
Nkulunkulu,
wametfwesa umchele webukhosi neludvumo.
6Umenta abuse etikwemisebenti yetandla takho,
konkhe wakubeka
ngaphansi kwetinyawo takhe:
7tonkhe timvu, netinkhomo tonkhe,
yebo, netilwane tesiganga,
8tinyoni letindizako,
netinhlanti telwandle,
nato tonkhe tidalwa taselwandle.
9Maye, Simakadze, Nkhosi yetfu,
libito lakho liyababateka
emhlabeni wonkhe!
