Amandla kaThixo abonakala esaqhwithini

1UYehova ngukumkani; liyagcoba ihlabathi,

Ziyavuya iziqithi ezininzi.

Ulenya ababandezeli bakhe ngeenxa zonke.

4Ikhanyisa elimiweyo imibane yakhe;

Ùyabona umhlaba, uzibhija-bhije.

Abaqhayisa ngeento ezingento;

Bayamnqula bonke oothixo.

Ngenxa yemigwebo yakho, Yehova.

Nibulele isikhumbuzo sakhe esingcwele.
