1 Ewe kambe, sizivele ngezethu iindlebe, Thixo.Kaloku amanyange asibaliselangezigigaba zakho zemihla yawo yamfamlibe.
2 Wena wazigxotha iintlanga,waza bona abantu bakho wabamilisela elizweni lazo.Wazitshutshisa iintlangawaza bona abakho wabathi jize ngenkqubela.
3 Hayi, eli lizwe abalizuzanga ngenxa yezikhali,bengaphumelelanga ngenxa yezigalo zabo;koko kwakungenxa yegunya nezigalo zakhonefuthe lobukho bakho, njengoko babethandeka kuwe.
4 Wena unguKumkani noThixo wam.Lumiselwa nguwe uloyiso lwakwaYakobi.
5 Ngoncedo lwakho siyazingqula iintshaba zethu;ngegama lakho siyabaxovula abasihlaselayo.
6 Andixhomekekanga kolwam utolo,ndingaqamelanga ngalo nekrele.
7 Hayi, nguwe owasihlangulayo ezintshabeni zethu;ikwanguwe owabaduba-dubayo abasithiyileyo.
8 Thina siqhayisa ngoThixo njalo-njalo,saye siya kumdumisa nanini-nanini.
9 Kambe ke usilahle satsho sahlazeka,njengoko ungasaphumi nemikhosi yethu.
10 Wena usiyekele zasiswantsulisa iintshaba,zaza zathimba amaxhoba ngokuthanda kwazo.
11 Wena usiyekele saxhelwa njengeegusha;usithathe wasisarhaza phakathi kweentlanga.
12 Abantu bakho wabathengisa ngelize,wena akwafumana nzuzo ngabo.
13 Usenze intsini kubamelwane,satsho sasisigculelo nesenyelisokwezo zizwe zisingqongileyo.
14 Ngoku singundaba-mlonyeni phakathi kwezizwe;sesingabasizelwayo kulo lonke elimiweyo.
15 Ndisoloko ndithiwe mbende lihlazo.Ke zona iintloni zindongamele
16 ngenxa yempoxo nezenyelisoezigityiselwa kum ziintshaba ezindivukeleyo.
17 Zonke ezi zinto zasihlela,nangona singazange sakulibala thina,okanye siwutshinizele umnqophiso wakho.
18 Asizange sikufulathele thina,singazange sanxaxha endleleni yakho.
19 Kodwa elethu linyhashwe laba linxuwa,silahlwe esithokothokweni sobumnyama.
20 Ukuba besikutyeshele, wena Thixo,okanye sanqula thixo bambi,
21 andithi, wena Thixo, ubuya kuyibhaqa na naleyo?Kaloku wena uyabazi ubunzulu beentliziyo.
22 Kambe ke kungenxa yakho sisesichengeni sokubulawa nje;yiyo loo nto sesifana neegusha zokuxhelwa nje.
23 Hayi bo! Vuka, Nkosi yam!Ngani ukuba uthurh' obentlombe?Vuka; sukusinyengez' uhle nomcinga!
24 Ngan' ukuba usilibale kangaka?Ngan' ukuba usifulathele ngolu hlobo,sibe sisisulu sembandezelo nengcinezelo?
25 Ewe, asisazelwe nto konke;sesingoogqush' eluthulini.
26 Ngenxa yothando lwakho olungatshitshiyokhawuvuke usihlangule kaloku!
