Amahubo 116

1 Ngiyayithanda iNkosi, ngoba izwile ilizwi lami, ukunxusa kwami.

I love for he has heard - Yahweh voice my supplications my.

2 Ngoba ibeke indlebe yayo kimi, ngakho ngizayibiza ensukwini zami.

For he has inclined ear his to me and in days my I will call out.

3 Izibopho zokufa zangihanqa, lenhlungu zesihogo zangibamba; ngathola inhlupheko losizi. (Sheol h7585)

They surrounded me - [the] cords of death and [the] distresses of Sheol they found me trouble and sorrow I found. (Sheol h7585)

4 Ngasengibiza ibizo leNkosi, ngathi: O Nkosi, khulula umphefumulo wami.
