17 Ukuba anithanga nikuve oko, wólila umphefumlo wam entsithelweni ngenxa yoqhankqalazo lwenu; lityityizele lityityizela, lihle iinyembezi, iliso lam; ngokuba umhlambi kaYehova uthinjiwe.
18 Yithi kukumkani nakwinkosikazi, Zithobeni, hlalani phantsi; ngokuba síyehla ezintlokweni zenu isithsaba sokuhomba kwenu.
19 Imizi yelisezantsi ivaliwe, akukho ungayivulayo; uYuda ufudusiwe ephela; ufudusiwe kanye.
20 Phakamisani amehlo enu, nibone abavela entla. Úphi na umhlambi obuwunikiwe, impahla yakho emfutshane entle?
21 Wòthini na, xa athe abo ke ùbaqhelise ukuba ngamakholwane akho, wabenza bangabaveleli, bayintloko kuwe? Ayiyi kukubamba na inimba, njengomfazi ozalayo?
22 Naxa uthe entliziyweni yakho, Kungani na ukuba ndifikelwe zezi zinto? ngobuninzi bobugwenxa bakho utyhilekile ingubo, zagonyamelwa izithende zakho.
23 UmKushi únokuluguqula na ulùsu lwakhe, nengwe inokuwaguqula na amabala ayo? ningába ke ninako ukulungisa nani, baqhelé ukwenza okubi.
