2Ingani enhliziyweni niphehla imisebenzi emibi;

ezweni nilinganisa ngesilinganiso ukudluzula kwezandla zenu.

3Ababi bahlubuka kwasesizalweni,

abaqamba amanga baduka kwasesiswini.

mayibe sengathi iqundekile.

8Mababe njengomnenke oncibilika, uphele,

njengokuphuphume kowesifazane okungalibonanga ilanga.

9Amabhodwe enu engakazizwa izinkuni zameva,

uyakuziphephula, noma ziluhlaza noma zivutha.

uyakugeza izinyawo zakhe egazini lababi,

11abantu baze bathi: “Impela ukhona umvuzo wolungileyo;

impela ukhona uNkulunkulu owahlulelayo emhlabeni.”

12Izwi lezindebe zazo liyisono somlomo wazo;

mazibanjwe ekuzidleni kwazo

nangenxa yesiqalekiso namanga eziwakhulumayo.

13Ziqede ngokuthukuthela,

ziqede zingabe zisabakho;

mazazi ukuba nguNkulunkulu obusa kwaJakobe,

kuze kube semikhawulweni yomhlaba. Sela*

14Ziyabuya kusihlwa;

zihlaba umkhulungwane njengenja, zizula emzini.

15Zizulazulela ukudla;

uma zingasuthi, zihlala nasebusuku.

16Kepha mina ngizakuhlabelela ngamandla akho,

ngethabele umusa wakho ekuseni,

ngokuba uyinqaba yami,

nesiphephelo ngosuku lokuhlupheka kwami.

17Mandla ami, ngizakuhubela wena;

ngokuba uNkulunkulu uyinqaba yami,

unguNkulunkulu wami womusa.
