Amahubo 103:1-22

Ihubo likaDavide. Mbonge uJehova, mphefumulo wami; konke okuphakathi kwami makubonge igama lakhe elingcwele. Mbonge uJehova, mphefumulo wami, ungakhohlwa imisebenzi yonke yomusa wayo. Yena othethelela zonke iziphambeko zakho; owelapha zonke izifo zakho; Ohlenga ukuphila kwakho ekubhujisweni; okuthwesa umusa nesihe; Ogcwalisa umlomo wakho ngezinto ezinhle; ukuze ubusha bakho buvuselelwe njengokhozi. UJehova wenza ubulungisa nobulungisa kubo bonke abacindezelwayo. Wamazisa uMose izindlela zakhe, nezenzo zakhe kubantwana bakwa-Israyeli. UJehova unesihe, unomusa, uyabekezela, uchichima umusa. Akayikuxabana njalo, akayikugcina intukuthelo yakhe kuze kube phakade. Akenzanga kithi njengokwezono zethu; futhi akasibuyiselanga njengokwamacala ethu. Ngokuba njengokuphakama kwezulu phezu komhlaba, unjalo umusa wakhe kwabamesabayo. Njengoba impumalanga iqhelelene nentshonalanga, udedisela kude iziphambeko zethu kithi. Njengoyise ehawukela abantwana bakhe, kanjalo uJehova uhawukela abamesabayo. Ngoba yena uyasazi isimo sethu; uyakhumbula ukuthi siluthuli. Umuntu, izinsuku zakhe zinjengotshani; njengembali yasendle, uyaqhakaza kanjalo. Ngokuba umoya uphephetha phezu kwayo, isuke; nendawo yawo ayisayikuyazi. Kepha umusa kaJehova ukhona kwabamesabayo kusukela phakade kuze kube phakade, nokulunga kwakhe kubantwana babantwana; Kulabo abagcina isivumelwano sakhe nalabo abakhumbula imiyalo yakhe ukuba bayenze. UJehova umisile isihlalo sakhe sobukhosi ezulwini; nombuso wakhe ubusa phezu kwakho konke. Dumisani uJehova, nina zingelosi zakhe, enibusa ngamandla, enigcina imiyalo yakhe, nilalele izwi lezwi lakhe. Dumisani uJehova nina mabandla akhe onke; nina zinceku zaKhe, ezenza intando yaKhe enhle. Bongani uJehova nina misebenzi yakhe yonke ezindaweni zonke zombuso wakhe; dumisa uJehova, mphefumulo wami!
