Salamo 13

1 Ho an’ ny mpiventy hira. Salamo nataon’ i Davida.

Koze kube nini, Nkosi, ungikhohlwa kokuphela? Koze kube nini ungifihlela ubuso bakho?

2 Jehovah ô, mandra-pahoviana no mbola hanadinoanao ahy ihany? Mandra-pahoviana no mbola hanafenanao ny tavanao amiko?

Koze kube nini ngizicebisa emphefumulweni wami, ngilosizi enhliziyweni yami insuku zonke? Koze kube nini isitha sami siphakanyiswa phezu kwami?

3 Mandra-pahoviana no mbola hisaintsainako am-panahy, sy hahalahelovako am-po isan’ andro? Mandra-pahoviana no mbola hisandratan’ ny fahavaloko ho amboniko?

Khangela, ungiphendule, Nkosi, Nkulunkulu wami; khanyisa amehlo ami hlezi ngilale ubuthongo bokufa,

4 Jereo aho ka valio, Jehovah Andriamanitro ô; ampahazavao ny mazoto, fandrao renoky ny torimaso fahafatesana aho;

hlezi isitha sami sithi: Sengimehlule; labangihluphayo bathokoze lapho nginyikinywa.

5 Fandrao ny fahavaloko hanao hoe: naharesy azy aho, fandrao hifaly ny rafilahiko, raha mangozohozo aho.

Kodwa mina ngithembele emuseni wakho, inhliziyo yami izathaba ngosindiso lwakho.

6 Fa raha izaho kosa, dia ny famindram-ponao no itokiako; ho faly amin’ ny famonjenao ny foko. Hihira ho an’ i Jehovah aho, satria nanisy soa ahy Izy;

Ngizayihlabelela iNkosi, ngoba ingenzele okuhle kakhulu.
