Ihubo 64
Umkhuleko wocela ukuvikelwa ezitheni
Kumholi wokuhlabelela. Ihubo likaDavide.
1Yizwa, Nkulunkulu,
izwi lami ekukhaleni kwami,
ulondoloze ukuphila kwami evusweni lesitha.
2Ngisithe esigungwini sababi nasesixukwini sabenza okubi,
3abalola ulimi lwabo njengenkemba,
bakhombe imicibisholo yabo engamazwi ababayo
4ukuba bamdubule ongenacala ngasesitha,
bamdubule ngokuzuma bengesabi.
5Baqinela icebo elibi;
bakhuluma ngokufihla izingibe;
bathi: “Ngubani oyakusibona na?”
6Basongoza izenzo ezimbi,
bathi: “Siliqedile icebo elisongoziweyo,”
izibilini nenhliziyo yomuntu kujulile.
7Kepha uNkulunkulu uyakubadubula ngomcibisholo;
bagwazwe ngokuzunywa.
8Bayakuwiswa, baficwe lulimi lwabo;
bonke abababonayo bayonikina ikhanda.
9Bonke abantu bayashaywa luvalo;
bayakushumayela izenzo zikaNkulunkulu,
baqonde akwenzileyo.
10Olungileyo uyakujabula kuJehova, aphephele kuye;
bonke abaqotho ngenhliziyo bayakuzibonga.
