Umthandazo wokuchasa iintshaba ezifihlakeleyo
Kumongameli. Umhobe kaDavide.
1Líve, Thixo, izwi lam ekukhalazeni kwam;
Ekunkwantyiseni kotshaba bulondoloze ubomi bam.
2Ndísithelise egquguleni labanobubi,
Ehlokondibeni labasebenzi bobutshinga;
3Abalulola njengekrele ulwimi lwabo,
Abaxuna iintolo zabo, amazwi akrakra,
4Bamtole ogqibeleleyo besentsithelweni;
Bamtola ngesiquphe, bangoyiki.
5Bazomelezela ilizwi elibi,
Bagqiba kwelokuba bafihle izirhintyelo,
Bathi, Singábonwa ngubani na?
6Baceba ubugqwetha;
Baligqibile icebo abalicebileyo;
Imbilini yendoda nentliziyo yayo yinzulu.
7Ke uThixo uyabatola ngotolo;
Amanxeba abo abakho ngesiquphe.
8Baya kukhutyekiswa, lufikele kwabona ulwimi lwabo;
Bayahlunguzela intloko bonke abababonayo.
9Basuka boyike bonke abantu,
Bawuxele umsebenzi kaThixo,
Basiqiqe isenzo sakhe.
10Liya kuvuya ilungisa ngoYehova, lizímele ngaye,
Baqhayise bonke abantliziyo zithe tye.
