Kuwena, Simakade, ngiyakhosela,
mangingajabhi naphakade.
Ngokulunga kwakho ngikhulule, ungihlenge;
beka indlebe yakho kimi, ungisindise.
Yiba yidwala lami lokukhosela,
engiza kulo njalo;
uyalezile ukuba ngisindiswe,
ngokuba uyidwala lami nenqaba yami.
Nkulunkulu wami, ngikhulule esandleni sesikhohlakali,
nasekuxhakathisweni yisandla sowenza okubi nesowonakeleyo.
Ngokuba Wena, Nkosi Simakade,
uyithemba lami;
ngethembele kuwe kwasebusheni bami.
Ngancika kuwe kwasekuzalweni kwami,
nguwe owangikhipha esibelethweni sikamame.
Ukudumisa kwami njalo kungawe.
Kwabaningi bengifana nesimangaliso,
kodwa Wena uyisiphephelo sami esinamandla.
Usuku lonke, umlomo wami
ugcwele ukukubonga nokukubabaza.
Ungangilahli ngesikhathi sobudala,
ungangishiyi lapho sengiluphele,
ngokuba izitha zami zikhuluma ngami,
nabaqamekela umphefumulo wami
bahlangana ngami, bangihlebe,
bathi:
“UNkulunkulu umshiyile;
mxosheni, nimbambe,
ngokuba akekho ongamkhulula.”
Nkulunkulu, ungabi kude nami,
Nkulunkulu, phuthuma ungisize.
Abamelene nami befuna umphefumulo wami
mabajabhe, baphele.
Labo abafuna ukungilimaza,
mabathelwe ngehlazo, bahlazeke.
Kepha mina ngizohlala ngikwethemba njalo,
ngizokubonga ngingaphezi.
Umlomo wami uzolanda ngokulunga kwakho
nensindiso yakho usuku lonke,
ngokuba anginakukubala.
Ngizofika ngikubonge
ngezenzo zamandla zeNkosi uNkulunkulu;
ngizokudumisa ngokulunga kwakho,
kwakho wedwa.
Nkulunkulu, wangifundisa kwasebusheni bami,
namanje ngisamemezela
ngemisebenzi yakho emangalisayo.
Nalapho sengimdala, sengiyimpunga,
uze ungangishiyi,
ukuze ngishumayele ubukhulu bakho kwabasazozalwa,
namandla akho ezizukulwaneni.
Nkulunkulu, ukulunga kwakho kufinyelela ezulwini,
Wena owenza izinto ezinkulu.
Nkulunkulu, ngubani onjengawe na?
Wena owasikhombisa izinhlupheko ezimbi eziningi,
uyobuye usiphilise,
usikhuphule ezinzulwini zomhlaba.
Yandisa udumo lwami, ubuye ungiduduze.
Nkulunkulu wami, ngizobubonga ubuqotho bakho,
ngogubhu lwezintambo, ngikudumise ngehabhu,
Wena oNgcwele ka-Israyeli.
Izindebe zomlomo wami zizojabula,
nomphefumulo wami ukuhubele,
ngokuba ungihlengile.
Usuku lonke ulimi lwami
luzokhuluma ngokulunga,
ngokuba labo abafuna ukungenzakalisa
bazothelwa ngehlazo, baphoxeke.
