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