UThixo ukuphela kwenqaba ekhoyoKumongameli. KuYedutun. Umhobe kaDavide.

1Úthozamele kuThixo kwaphela umphefumlo wam;

Kuvela kuye ukusindiswa kwam.

2Nguye kwaphela iliwa lam, umsindisi wam,

Ingxonde yam; andiyi kushukunyiswa kakhulu.

3Kunini na nisuka indulumbane emntwini?

Kunini na nimncinitha nonke niphela, enjengodonga oluzimkayo, enjengothango oluwayo?

4Bagqibé kwelokuba bamtyhale bamsuse ekuphakameni kwakhe kuphele;

Bakholene namanga;

Basikelela elowo ngomlomo, embilinini yabo bayatshabhisa. (Phakamisani.)

5Thozamela kuThixo yedwa, mphefumlo wam,

Ngokuba livela kuye ithemba lam.

6Nguye kwaphela iliwa lam, umsindisi wam,

Ingxonde yam; andiyi kushukunyiswa.

7KunoThixo ukusindiswa kwam nozuko lwam;

Iliwa lokunqaba kwam nehlathi lam likuThixo.

8Kholosani ngaye ngamaxesha onke, nina bantu;

Phalazani intliziyo yenu phambi kwakhe.

UThixo ulihlathi kuthi. (Phakamisani.)

9Bangumphunga kwaphela onyana boluntu, ngamanga oonyana bamadoda;

Esikalini• bangenyuka,

Bangumphunga bephelele.

10Musani ukukholosa ngokudla abantu,

Ningazenzi into engeyanto ngento exhakamfuliweyo.

Yakwanda imfuyo, musani ukuyinyamekela.

11Uthethé nto-nye uThixo,

Ezi zinto zimbini ndizivile:

Ukuba amandla ngakaThixo,

12Nenceba yeyakho, Nkosi yam;

Ngokuba uyababuyekeza, elowo ngokwezenzo zakhe.
