Kuphila kwemuntfu kuyendlula masinyane
Sihlabelelo saDavide lesetfulwe kumhlabelisi Jeduthuni.
1 Ngacabanga ngatsi:
“Ngiyawunakekela tindlela tami,
kuze ngingoni ngelulwimi lwami,
umlomo wami ngiyakuwufaka sifonyo,
yingci nangisesembikwalomubi.”
2 Ngaba simungulu, ngabindza,
ngangete ngasho lutfo nangalokuhle.
Tinhlungu tadlanga.
3 Inhlitiyo yami yavutsa,
yashisa ngekhatsi kwami,
ngisacabanga ngizindla ngaloko,
kwaphembeka umlilo kimi,
ngadzimate ngakhuluma ngatsi:
4 “Simakadze, ngatise sigcino sami,
ungatise nebungako bekuphila kwami,
ncono ngati kutsi
ngiyendlula lapha emhlabeni.”
5 Imihla yami ingangemphama yesandla.
Kuphila kwami kubukeka kulite kuwe.
Impela, kuphila kwemuntfu kunjengenkhungu. Cabanga.
6 Impela, kuphila kwemuntfu kunjengesitfunti.
Utihlupha ngelite nje.
Ucongelela ingcebo,
akabati labatawuyidla.
7Manje-ke, Nkhosi, ngisalindzeleni?
Litsemba lami likuwe.
8Ngikhulule kuto tonkhe tiphambuko tami,
ungavumi ngibe yinhlekisa yetilima.
9 Ngiyawuvala umlomo wami ngingasho lutfo,
ngobe kunguwe longente ngahlupheka.
10Susa kimi umvimba wakho lobuhlungu,
sengifile tidvubule tekushaya kwakho.
11 Nawekhuta umuntfu,
umjezisa ngenca yekona kwakhe,
umhlikite njengendvwangu lenhle kakhulu
nayidliwa ngumvunya.
Impela, kuphila kwemuntfu kunjengenkhungu. Cabanga.
12 Hhawu, Simakadze!
Lalela umkhuleko wami,
ubeke indlebe yakho ekuncuseni kwami,
ungatitibi tinyembeti tekukhala kwami.
Ngobe mine ngingumfokati lokhosele kuwe,
ngisihambi njengabokhokho bami bonkhe.
13 Ngiyekele!
Ungabe uloku ungigolotele,
ngobe ngifuna kuphindze ngijabule,
ngingakahambi emhlabeni.
