Amahubo 16
1 Imikithamu kaDavida. Ngilondoloza, Oh Nkulunkulu, ngoba ngiphephela kuwe.
Ya Dawudi. Onkuume, Ayi Katonda, kubanga ggwe buddukiro bwange.
2 Ngathi kuThixo, “UnguThixo wami; ngaphandle kwakho angilakho okuhle.”
Nagamba Mukama nti, “Ggwe Mukama wange, ebirungi byonna bye nnina biva gy’oli.”
3 Labo abangcwele abakhona elizweni bangabakhazimulayo engithokoza ngabo.
Abatukuvu abali mu nsi be njagala era mu bo mwe nsanyukira.
4 Labo abagijimela abanye onkulunkulu inhlupho zabo zizakwanda. Angiyi kuyithulula iminikelo yegazi kubonkulunkulu labo njalo amabizo abo kawayikuphuma kwezami izindebe.
Ennaku y’abo abagoberera bakatonda abalala yeeyongera. Siriwaayo ssaddaaka zaabwe ez’omusaayi, wadde okusinza bakatonda baabwe.
5 Thixo, usungahlukanisele isabelo sami kanye lenkezo yami; konke okwami usukumise kuhle.
Mukama, ggwe mugabo gwange, era ggw’oliisa obulamu bwange; era ggw’olabirira ebyange.
6 Imingcele yesabelo sami idabula ezindaweni ezibukekayo; ngeqiniso elami ilifa liyathokozisa.
Ensalo zange ziri mu bifo ebisanyusa, ddala ddala omugabo omulungi.
7 Ngizamdumisa uThixo, onguye ongelulekayo; lasebusuku inhliziyo yami iyangiqondisa.
Nnaatenderezanga Mukama kubanga annuŋŋamya ne mu kiro ayigiriza omutima gwange.
8 Ngikhangele kuThixo kokuphela. Njengoba esesandleni sami sokunene angiyi kunyikinywa.
Nkulembeza Mukama buli kiseera, era ali ku mukono gwange ogwa ddyo, siinyeenyezebwenga.
9 Ngakho-ke inhliziyo yami iyathokoza lolimi lwami luyajabula; lomzimba wami uzaphumula uvikelekile,
Noolwekyo omutima gwange gusanyuka, n’akamwa kange ne kajaguza; era n’omubiri gwange gunaabeeranga mu mirembe.
10 ngoba kawuzukungiyekela ngize ngiye endaweni yabafileyo, njalo kawusoze wekele othembekileyo wakho ezwe ukubola. (Sheol h7585)
Kubanga omwoyo gwange toliguleka magombe, wadde okukkiriza Omutukuvu wo okuvunda. (Sheol h7585)
11 Usungazisile indlela yempilo; uzangigcwalisa ngokuthaba phambi kwakho, ngenjabulo engapheliyo kwesokunene sakho.
Olindaga ekkubo ery’obulamu; w’oli we wanaabanga essanyu erijjuvu, era mu mukono gwo ogwa ddyo nga mwe muli ebisanyusa emirembe gyonna.
