Buhle benhlakanipho
1Jika sinkhwa sakho emantini,
ngobe utawuphindze usitfole emvakwemalanga lamanyenti.
2 Yaba timphahla takho tekutsengiswa kulabasikhombisa,
yebo, kulabasiphohlongo, ngobe awati
kutsi yini lengahle yehlele umhlaba.
3Nangabe emafu agcwele imvula,
lemvula ayitfululela etikwemhlaba.
Nangabe sihlahla siwe sabheka
ngaseningizimu nome ngasenyakatfo,
siyawulala ngaleyo ndlela lesiwe ngayo.
4Lowo lonaka umoya angeke aze ahlanyele;
nalowo lolindzela emafu emvula angeke aze avune.
5 Njengobe ungati kutsi umoya uvelaphi,
nekutsi kwenteka kanjani
kutsi umfati lotetfwele abe nemtimba lonemoya
lophilako esiswini sakhe,
kanjalo ungeke wati kutsi Nkulunkulu
uMdali wako konkhe, usebenta kanjani.
6Ekuseni hlanyela inhlanyelo yakho,
ungayekeli kusebenta lize liyewushona,
ngobe awuyati lenguyona itawuphumelela,
kutsi ngulena yini nome nguleyo,
nome totimbili tiyawuphumelela kahle ngalokufananako.
Teluleko kulabasha
7Kukhanya kwelilanga kumnandzi,
nekubonakala kwenhlavu yelilanga
kuyawajabulisa emehlo.
8Nangabe umuntfu aphiwe iminyaka leminyenti
yekuphila emhlabeni,
akatijabulise ngayo yonkhe,
kodvwa noko akakhumbule
kutsi ayeta emalanga lamanyenti ebumnyama.
Konkhe lokutako kuyawuba lite lelite.
9 Jabula jaha, ebusheni bakho,
inhlitiyo yakho ayikujabulise
ngemalanga ebusha bakho.
Landzela tindlela tenhlitiyo yakho
nako konkhe lokubonwa ngemehlo akho;
kodvwa ukhumbule
kutsi Nkulunkulu uyawukwehlulela
ngako konkhe lokwentile.
10Ngako-ke cosha kungeneliseki engcondvweni yakho,
utsintsitse tinhlupheko emtimbeni wakho,
ngobe busha nekucala kwemphilo kulite nje.
