1 Utsho uYehova ukuthi, Amazulu ayitrone yam, ihlabathi sisihlalo seenyawo zam. Iyini na le ndlu, niya kundakhela yona? Iyini na le ndawo yokuphumla kwam?
2 Zonke ezo zinto sazenza isandla sam, zabakho ke zonke ezo zinto; utsho uYehova; ndibheka kuló, kolúsizana, komoya waphukileyo, kogubhayo ngelizwi lam.
3 Oxhela inkomo unjengesixabela-mntu; obingelela igusha ngumsiki wenja; onyusa umnikelo wokudla ngumnyusi wegazi lehagu; okhumbuza ngoqhumiselo lwentlaka emhlophe ngosikelela into ebubutshinga. Bezinyulele nje iindlela zabo, umphefumlo wabo wawananza amazothe abo:
4 nam ke ndiya kunyula iimfeketho zokufeketha ngabo, ndibazìsele izinto ezibanxunguphalisayo; ngenxa enokuba ndabizayo, akwabakho usabelayo; ndathetha, abeva; besuka benza ububi emehlweni am, banyula nento endingayinanzileyo.
5 Liveni ilizwi likaYehova, nina nigubhayo ngelizwi lakhe; uthi, Abazalwana benu abanithiyayo, abanigxotháyo kubo ngenxa yegama lam, bathi, Makazizukise uYehova, sibone imivuyo yenu; baya kudana ke bona.
6 Phulaphulani isandi esiphuma kuwo umzi; ilizwi eliphuma etempileni; ilizwi likaYehova, ephindezela impatho yeentshaba zakhe.
7 Ingekazibhijabhiji, yazala; ingekezi inimba kuyo, yathi tyibilili umntwana oyinkwenkwe.
