1UJobe wasephendula wathi:
2“Sengezwa izinto ezinengi ezifana lalezi;
lingabaduduzi ababi lina lonke!
3Zizaphela nini inkulumo zokubhuda kwenu lokhu?
Kuyini okulihluphayo laphikelela nje lidaza inkani?
4Lami bengingakhuluma njengani
aluba yini elisesikhundleni sami;
ngabe ngikhupha inkulumo ezimnandi ngilisola
ngize nginikine ikhanda lami.
5Kodwa umlomo wami ngabe uyaliqinisa;
induduzo yezindebe zami idedise inhlungu zenu.
6Kodwa nxa ngikhuluma, ubuhlungu obukimi kabudedi;
loba ngingaze ngithule, kabupheli.
7Ngeqiniso, Nkulunkulu, usungiqede amandla;
usuyitshabalalisile yonke imuli yami.
8Usungibophile sekuyibo ubufakazi balokho;
lokucikizeka kwami kuyakhula kungilahla.
9UNkulunkulu uyanginxwanela angidlikize ngolaka lwakhe,
angigedlele amazinyo;
isitha sami singinyonkoloze ngamehlo ahlabayo.
10Abantu bavula imilomo yabo bengihoza;
bangimakala esihlathini bengihlambaza
babambane bangihlanganyele.
11UNkulunkulu usenginikele ebantwini ababi
wangiphosela ezandleni zezigangi.
12Konke kwakukuhle kimi, kodwa wangibhidliza;
wangixhakalaza ngentamo wangichoboza.
Usengenze ngaba yinto yakhe yokunenjwa;
13abacibi bemtshoko bakhe bangihanqile.
Ungiciba izinso zami engelazwelo
achithele inyongo yami phansi.
14Ungisukela njalonjalo;
angidumele njengebutho.
15Sengithungele isembatho sesaka emzimbeni wami
ngathukuza ibunzi lami othulini.
16Ubuso bami sebubomvu ngokukhala,
amathunzi anzima ahonqolozela amehlo ami;
17kodwa izandla zami kaziluqhelanga udlakela,
lomkhuleko wami uhlanzekile.
18Awu mhlaba, ungaligqibeli igazi lami;
sengathi lokukhala kwami kungaze kwacitshwa lanini!
19Lakhathesi ufakazi wami usezulwini;
umeli wami uphezulu khonale.
20Umeli wami ngumngane wami
nxa amehlo ami empompoza inyembezi kuNkulunkulu;
21uyamncengela umuntu kuNkulunkulu
njengomuntu encengela umngane wakhe.
22Kusasele iminyakana engemingaki
andubana ngiye lapho kungabuywa khona.”
