Ihubo 11
UJehova uyisiphephelo nomvikeli
Kumholi wokuhlabelela. Ihubo likaDavide.
1Ngiyaphephela kuJehova;
nisho kanjani kuwo umphefumulo wami ukuthi:
“Balekela entabeni yenu njengenyoni, na?
2Ngokuba bhekani,
ababi bawunsala umnsalo wabo,
babeka imicibisholo yabo entanjeni
ukuba bacibishele ebumnyameni abaqotho ngenhliziyo.
3Nxa izisekelo zidilizwa,
olungileyo angenzani na?”
4UJehova usethempelini lakhe elingcwele,
uJehova, isihlalo sakhe sobukhosi sisezulwini;
amehlo akhe ayabuka,
izinkophe zakhe ziyahlola abantwana babantu.
5UJehova uyamhlola olungileyo;
kepha omubi nothanda ubudlwangudlwangu
umphefumulo wakhe uyamzonda.
6Unisa izihibe phezu kwababi;
umlilo nesibabule nomoya oshisayo
kuyisabelo sendebe yabo.
7Ngokuba uJehova ulungile,
uyathanda ukulunga;
oqotho uyakubheka ubuso bakhe.
