1 Okusaba kwa Dawudi bwe yali mu mpuku. Nkaabirira Mukama n’eddoboozi ery’omwanguka; neegayirira Mukama ansaasire.
Ngakhalela eNkosini ngelizwi lami, ngelizwi lami eNkosini ngancenga.
2 Mmutegeeza byonna ebinneemulugunyisa, ne mmwanjulira ebinteganya byonna.
Ngathulula isikhalazo sami phambi kwayo, ngatshengisa ukuhlupheka kwami phambi kwayo.
3 Omwoyo gwange bwe gunnennyika, gw’omanyi eky’okunkolera. Banteze omutego mu kkubo lyange mwe mpita.
Lapho umoya wami uphela amandla phakathi kwami, wena wayazi indlela yami. Endleleni engihamba ngayo bangifihlele umjibila.
4 Bwe ntunula ku mukono gwange ogwa ddyo, sirabayo anambeera; sirina wa kwekweka, era tewali n’omu anfaako.
Khangela ngakwesokunene, ubone, kodwa wayengekho ongaziyo; isiphephelo sangehlula, kakho owakhathalela umphefumulo wami.
5 Nkaabirira ggwe, Ayi Mukama, nga ŋŋamba nti, “Ggwe kiddukiro kyange, ggwe mugabo gwange mu nsi muno.”
Ngakhalela kuwe, Nkosi, ngathi: Wena uyisiphephelo sami, isabelo sami elizweni labaphilayo.
6 Owulire okukaaba kwange, kubanga njeezebwa nnyo! Mponya abanjigganya, kubanga bansinza nnyo amaanyi.
Lalela ukukhala kwami, ngoba ngehliselwe phansi kakhulu. Ngikhulula kwabangizingelayo, ngoba balamandla kulami.
7 Nziggya mu kkomera, ndyoke nkwebaze nga ntendereza erinnya lyo. Abatuukirivu balinneetooloola, ng’onkoledde ebyekisa ekingi ebingi.
Khupha umphefumulo wami entolongweni, ukuze ngidumise ibizo lakho. Abalungileyo bazangibuthanela, ngoba uzangiphatha kuhle kakhulu.
