1 Wahambisa uYobhi, waphakamisa umzekeliso wakhe, wathi,
2 Ehleli nje uThixo, olisusileyo ibango lam,USomandla, owenzé krakra umphefumlo wam
3 (Kuba kusekum ukuphefumla kwam konke,Nomoya kaThixo usemathatheni am),
4 Umlomo wam awuthethi bugqwetha,Nolwimi lwam aluxeli nkohliso.
5 Makube lee kum ukuthi, niyalungisa;Ndoda ndiphume umphefumlo, ndingayisusi kum ingqibelelo yam.
6 Ndobambelela ebulungiseni bam, andiyi kubuyeka;Intliziyo yam ayiyi kungcikiva mini eziminini zam.
7 Malube njengongendawo utshaba lwam,Nósukela phezulu kum abe njengogqwethayo.
8 Kuba liyintoni na ithemba lentshembenxa, xa athe wawunqumla,Xa athe wawurhola uThixo umphefumlo wayo?
9 Wókuva na uThixo ukuhlahlamba kwayo,Xa ifikelwe yimbandezelo?
10 Khona inokuziyolisa na ngoSomandla?Ingamnqula na uThixo ngamaxesha onke?
11 Ndiya kuniyala ngokusingisele esandleni sikaThixo;OkunoSomandla andiyi kukukhanyela.
12 Yabonani, nonke niphela ngokwenu nikubonile;Yini na ke ukuba nithethe into engento yakonto?
13 Siso esi isabelo somntu ongendawo kuThixo,Nelifa labaziingqwangangqwili, abalamkelàyo kuSomandla.
14 Ukuba bathe banda oonyana bakhe, bandiselwa ikrele;Nabaphume embilinini wakhe àbahluthi kukutya.
15 Amaqongqolo akhe aya kungcwatywa kukufa,Abahlolokazi bakhe bangalili.
16 Ukuba úthe wafumba isilivere njengothuli,Wazilungisela izambatho njengodaka:
17 Angázilungisa, koko ziya kwambathwa lilungisa,Nesilivere leyo babelane ngayo abamsulwa.
18 Uyakha indlu yakhe njengenundu,Njengephempe elenziwe yimboniseli.
19 Ulala phantsi esisityebi, akaphindi;Uvula amehlo akhe, angabikho.
20 Kumthabatha njengamanzi ukukhwankqa,Simbé ebusuku isaqhwithi.
21 Luyamfukula ulophu lwasempumalanga, emke,Lumqweqwedise endaweni yakhe.
22 UThixo umgibisela angamcongi;Usibaleka asibaleke isandla sakhe.
23 Bamtyhwakrazela izandla,Bamenzele umsondlo, emke endaweni yakhe.
