5 Ababesuthile baqashelwa isinkwa;ababelambile sebeyekile ukulamba;yebo, oyinyumba uzele abayisikhombisa;onabantwana abaningi uyawuma.
6 “UJehova uyabulala, abesephilisa;uyehlisela endaweni yabafileyo, abesenyusa.
7 UJehova uyaphofisa, abesecebisa;uyathobisa, abesephakamisa.
8 Uyamvusa ompofu othulini,uyaphakamisa impabanga ezaleni,abahlalise nezikhulu,badle ifa lesihlalo sobukhosi,ngokuba izinsika zomhlaba zingezikaJehova;ubekile izwe phezu kwazo.
9 “Uyakugcina izinyawozabathembekileyo bakhe,kepha ababi bayakuthuliswa ebumnyameni,ngokuba akukho muntu oyakwahlula ngamandla.
10 Abalwa noJehovabayakuphahlazwa;uyakuduma ezulwini phezu kwabo;uJehova uyakwahlulela amajukujuku omhlaba,anike inkosi yakhe amandla,aphakamise uphondo logcotshiweyo wakhe.”
11 U-Elkana waya eRama endlini yakhe. Umntwana wakhonza uJehova phambi kuka-Eli umpristi.
