Zabbuli 120

1 Oluyimba nga balinnya amadaala. Nkoowoola Mukama nga ndi mu nnaku, era n’annyanukula.

Ekuhluphekeni kwami ngakhala eNkosini, yangiphendula.

2 Omponye, Ayi Mukama, emimwa egy’obulimba, n’olulimi olw’obukuusa.

Nkosi, khulula umphefumulo wami kundebe zamanga, kulimi lwenkohliso.

3 Onooweebwa ki, era onookolebwa otya, ggwe olulimi olukuusa?

Uzanikwani, njalo kuzakwengezelelwani kuwe, limi lwenkohliso?

4 Onoofumitibwa n’obusaale obwogi obw’omulwanyi omuzira, n’oyokerwa ku manda ag’omuti entaseesa.

Imitshoko ebukhali yeqhawe, lamalahle avuthayo esihlahla serotemu!

5 Ndabye ennaku, kubanga mbeera mu Meseki; nsula mu weema za Kedali!

Maye kimi, ngoba ngihlala njengowezizwe koMesheki, ngihlala emathenteni eKedari!

6 Ndudde nnyo mu bantu abakyawa eddembe.

Umphefumulo wami sekukade wahlala laye ozonda ukuthula.

7 Nze njagala mirembe, naye bwe njogera bo baagala ntalo.

Ngingowokuthula, kodwa lapho ngikhuluma, bangabempi.
