1 Bengilindela uJehova;wayesezikhothamisela kimi,wezwa ukukhala kwami.
2 Wangikhipha emgodini wokubhujiswa odakeni lobishi,wamisa izinyawo zami edwaleni,waqinisa izinyathelo zami.
3 Wabeka igama elisha emlonyeni wami,igama lokubonga uNkulunkulu wethu;abaningi bayakukubona, besabe,bamethembe uJehova.
4 Ubusisiwe umuntu obeka ithemba lakhe kuJehova,ongaphendukeli kwabazidlayo nakwabaphambukela emangeni.
5 Jehova Nkulunkulu wami,ziningi izimangaliso zakho ozenzileyo,nezizindlo zakho ngathi;akukho okungafaniswa nawe;uma ngiyilanda, ngiyisho,miningi kunokuba ibalwe.
6 Umhlatshelo nomnikelo wokudla awuwuthandi;izindlebe zami uzibhobozile;umnikelo wokushiswa nomnikelo wesono awuwubizi.
7 Ngase ngithi: “Bheka, ngiyeza;encwadini esongwayo kulotshiwe ngami ukuthi:
8 Ngiyathanda ukwenza intando yakho,Nkulunkulu wami,nomthetho wakho usenhliziyweni yami.”
9 Ngishumayelile ukulunga ebandleni elikhulu;bheka, angizivalanga izindebe zami;Jehova, wena uyakwazi.
10 Ukulunga kwakho angikuthukusanga enhliziyweni yami;ngashumayela ukukholeka kwakho nensindiso yakho;umusa wakho neqiniso lakho angikufihlelanga ibandla elikhulu.
11 Wena Jehova ungangigodleli ububele bakho;umusa wakho neqiniso lakho makungilonde njalo.
12 Ngokuba izinhlupheko ezingenakubalwa zingihaqile,iziphambeko zami zingificile,angaze ngaba nakubona;ziningi kunezinwele zekhanda lami;inhliziyo yami ingishiyile.
13 Makuthandeke kuwe Jehova ukuba ungikhulule;Jehova, mawuphuthume ungisize.
14 Mabajabhe, babe namahloni bonkeabafuna umphefumulo wami ukuba bawuhlwithe;abafisa ukulimala kwamimababuyiselwe emuva, bajabhiswe.
15 Mabashaqeke ngenxa yehlazo labo abathi kimi:“Ashila, ashila!”
16 Mabethabe, bajabule kuwe bonke abakufunayo;abathanda insindiso yakho mabashonjalo, bathi:“Makadunyiswe uJehova.”
17 Noma ngihlupheka, ngimpofu,iNkosi iyanginaka;wena ungumsizi wami noMsindisi wami;Nkulunkulu wami, mawungalibali.
