< Amahubo 131 >

1 Ingoma yemiqanso. ElikaDavida. Inhliziyo yami kayizikhukhumezi, Oh Thixo, amehlo ami kawaziphakamisi; kangizihluphi ngezindaba ezinkulu loba ngezinto ezimangalisayo kimi.
A song of ascents. Of David. O Lord, my heart is not haughty, my eyes are not lofty, I walk not among great things, things too wonderful for me.
2 Kodwa ngiwupholisile ngawuthulisa umphefumulo wami; njengomntwana okhutshwe ebeleni likanina, njengomntwana okhutshwe ebeleni unjalo umphefumulo wami uthule ngaphakathi kwami.
Yes, I have soothed and stilled myself, like a young child on his mother’s lap; like a young child am I.
3 Oh, Israyeli, beka ithemba lakho kuThixo manje kuze kube phakade.
O Israel, hope in the Lord from now and for evermore.
