Ukubonga uJehova omkhulu omnene
ElikaDavide
1Ngiyakukubonga ngenhliziyo yami yonke;
phambi kwawonkulunkulu ngiyakukuhubela.
2Ngiyakukhuleka phambi kwethempeli lakho elingcwele,
ngibonge igama lakho ngenxa yomusa wakho neqiniso lakho,
ngokuba phezu kwakho konke uphakamisile igama lakho nezwi lakho.
3Ngosuku engakhala ngalo wangiphendula;
wangiqunga isibindi, wangipha amandla emphefumulweni wami.
4Onke amakhosi omhlaba ayakukubonga, Jehova,
lapho ezwile amazwi omlomo wakho.
5Yebo, ayakuhlabelela ngezindlela zikaJehova,
ngokuba inkulu inkazimulo kaJehova.
6Ngokuba noma uJehova ephakeme,
uyanakekela nokho ophansi;
uyamazi ozidlayo ekude.
7Noma ngihamba phakathi kwenhlupheko,
uyakungiphilisa;
uyakwelulela isandla sakho olakeni lwezitha zami,
esokunene sakho singisindise.
8UJehova uyakufeza okwami;
Jehova, umusa wakho umi phakade;
ungashiyi imisebenzi yezandla zakho.
