IINDUMISO 20
Umthandazo woloyiso
Umhobe kaDavide; kumbhexeshi-kwayara.
1Wanga *uNdikhoyo angakuphulaphula ngemini yeembandezelo!
Wanga angakukhusela uThixo kaYakobi!
2Wanga angakuthumela uncedo luvel' ebhotwe lakhe,
akuxhase esentabeni yeZiyon.
3Wanga angayamkela iminikelo yakho uThixo,
akholiseke ngamadini omenzela wona.
4Wanga angakunika umnqweno wentliziyo yakho,
aziphumelelise zonk' iinquleqhu zakho.
5Sokwandul' ukuba nemincili ngoloyiso lwakho,
siphakamis' izindwe, simbong' uThixo.
Wang' uNdikhoyo angaziva izicelo zakho!
6Kaloku ndiyaz' ukuba uNdikhoyo uyamnceda umthanjiswa wakhe,
uyamva ekwibhotwe lakhe elilodwa ezulwini,
umnik' uloyiso ngamandla akhe.
7Baqhayisa ngeenqwelo zokulwa abanye, abanye ngamahashe;
thina siqhayisa ngoNdikhoyo uThixo wethu.
8Bona babhukuqwa bawe;
thina sisuka sime ngxishi.
9Ndikhoyo, mnike amandla oloyiso ukumkani;
sive naxa sizibika kuwe!
