Amahubo 27:1-14

Ihubo likaDavide. UJehova ungukukhanya kwami nensindiso yami; ngizakwesaba bani? uJehova ungamandla okuphila kwami; ngizosaba bani? Lapho ababi, yebo, izitha zami nezitha zami, befika phezu kwami ukuba badle inyama yami, bakhubeka bawa. Noma impi ingikanisa, inhliziyo yami ayesabi; noma ngivuka impi, ngiyakwethemba lokho. Kunye engikucele kuJehova, ngiyakufuna; ukuze ngihlale endlini kaJehova zonke izinsuku zokuhamba kwami, ukuze ngibone inkazimulo kaJehova, ngibuze ethempelini lakhe. Ngokuba uyangithukusa etendeni lakhe ngesikhathi sokuhlupheka; uyangithukusa endaweni yokucasha yetende lakhe; Uzongimisa phezu kwedwala. Khathesi ikhanda lami lizakuphakama phezu kwezitha zami ezingihanqileyo; ngalokho ngiyakunikela ngemihlatshelo yokuthokoza etendeni lakhe; Ngifuna ukuhlabelela, yebo, ngifuna ukuhlabelela inkazimulo kaJehova. Yizwa, Jehova, lapho ngikhala ngezwi lami; yiba nomusa kimi futhi, ungiphendule. Lapho uthi: Dingani ubuso bami; inhliziyo yami yathi kuwe: Ngiyakufuna ubuso bakho, Jehova. Ungangifihleli ubuso bakho; Ungayisusi inceku yakho ngokuthukuthela; ube lusizo kimi; ungangishiyi, ungangishiyi, Nkulunkulu wensindiso yami. Lapho ubaba nomame bangishiyile, uJehova uzongamukela. Ngifundise indlela yakho, Jehova, ungihole endleleni eqondileyo ngenxa yezitha zami. Unganginikeli entandweni yezitha zami, ngokuba ofakazi bamanga bangivukele kanye nabantu abaphefumula unya. Ngaphela amandla, ngaphandle kokuthi ngikholwe ukuthi ngizakubona okuhle kukaJehova elizweni labaphilayo. Lindela uJehova, ube nesibindi, uyakuqinisa inhliziyo yakho; lindelani uJehova.
