8 Ababe namatshe bawanikela engcebeni yendlu kaJehova phansi kwesandla sikaJehiyeli umGereshoni.
9 Abantu bajabula ngokunikela kwabo ngenhliziyo, ngokuba banikela ngenhliziyo epheleleyo kuJehova; naye uDavide inkosi wajabula ngokujabula okukhulu.
10 UDavide wayesebonga uJehova phambi kwebandla lonke; uDavide wathi: “Mawubongwe wena Jehova Nkulunkulu ka-Israyeli ubaba kuze kube phakade.
11 Ngobakho, Jehova, ubukhulu, namandla, nodumo, nenkazimulo, nobukhosi, ngokuba konke okusezulwini nasemhlabeni kungokwakho; ngowakho umbuso, Jehova; wena uphakeme, uyinhloko phezu kwakho konke.
12 Ingcebo nenkazimulo kuvela kuwe, wena ubusa phezu kwakho konke; esandleni sakho kukhona amandla nezikhwepha, esandleni sakho kukhona ukukhulisa nokunika bonke amandla.
13 Ngalokho, Nkulunkulu wethu, siyakubonga, siyadumisa igama lakho elitusekayo.
14 “Ngokuba ngingubani mina, nabantu bami, bayini ukuba sibe namandla okunikela ngenhliziyo engaka na? Ngokuba konke kuvela kuwe, nokuvela esandleni sakho lokhu sikunike wena.
