IINDUMISO 109
109
Isikhalazo somntu osengxakini
Kumbhexeshi-kwayara; umhobe kaDavide.
1Thixo wam endimncomayo,
ngani ukuba uthi cwaka,
2ndimangalelwa nje zizikhohlakali namaxoki?
Kaloku bona bandirhintyela ngobuxoki;
3bathetha izinto ezimasikizi ngam;
bandihlasela ndingenzanga nto.
4Ndandibathanda ndibathandazela,
kodwa bandibuyekeza ngokundityhola.
5Ukulunga kwam bakubuyekeza ngobubi;
uthando lwam balubuyekeza ngentiyo.
6Mmisele isibhoja lo mfo;
misa ofana naye ematyaleni.
7Ematyaleni makafunyaniswe onile,
nomthandazo wakhe mawumgwebe.
8Imihla yakhe mayinqanyulwe;
indawo yakhe mayithathwe ngomnye.
9Abantwana bakhe mababe ziinkedama,
umfazi wakhe abe ngumhlolokazi.
10Abantwana bakhe mababe zizibhadu-bhadu ezingqibayo;
mabajikeleze bazingele ukutya nasemabhodlweni.
11Ombamba ulutho wanga angamthimba;
amandla akhe makaxhatshazwe ngabasemzini.
12Ngamana akungebikho bani uvelana naye,
angabikho ozisizelayo ezo nkedama.
13Ngamana yaphanza nenzala yakhe,
igama lakhe lingaphindi likhankanywe.
14Ngamana wabuxhiba *uNdikhoyo ububi booyise,
buhlale phambi kwakhe nobubi bukanina.
15Ngamana wabugcina njalo uNdikhoyo obu bubi;
igama lakhe malicime kuthi tu emhlabeni.
16Kaloku lo mntu zange abakhathalele abahlelekileyo nabaxakekileyo,
koko wabadobelela abacinezelwa.
17Wayengumqalekisi, naye ke makaqalekiswe;
zange athamsanqele, naye ke makangakuzuzi.
18Ukuqalekisa wayekunxiba njengempahla:
makuthi nca emzimbeni njengamanzi;
makugqobhozele emathanjeni njengamafutha.
19Ewe, makube njengengubo ayambathayo;
mihla le makube yibhanti ayibhinqayo.
20Ndikhoyo, esi mayibe sisohlwayo sâbo bandimangalelayo,
abo bathetha kakubi ngam.
21Kodwa ke, Mhlekazi Ndikhoyo,
ndivelele ngenxa yegama lakho;
ndihlangule ngenxa yezibele zakho.
22Kaloku ndihlelelekile, ndixakekile;
futhi ke ndixhelekile.
23Ndithe shwaka ngokwesithunzi samarhatya;
ndivuthuluke ngokwesinambuzane.
24Nditsho ndanengevane kukungatyi;
andibhityanga, ndingumcinga!
25Iintshaba zam ziphoxisa ngam;
zakundibona zihlunguzel' intloko.
26Khawundincede, Ndikhoyo Thixo wam;
ndisindise ngokwezo zibele zakho!
27Khawubethe baqonde ukuba nguwe lo,
nguwe ondihlangulayo, Ndikhoyo.
28Mabathi bendiqalekisa nje, ube wena undithamsanqela;
bathi ntimfa ngehlazo abo bandihlaselayo.
Mna ke sicaka mandiphuphume yimincili.
29Abandimangalelayo mabavathe ihlazo;
ewe, mabalithi wambu oku komnweba.
30Ndiya kubhomboloza ndidumisa uNdikhoyo;
ndiya kumncoma phakathi kwezihlwele;
31kuba yena uyamxhasa ohlelelekileyo,
amhlangule kwabo bamsingela phantsi.
