1 Khumbula, Nkosi, uDavida, izinhlupheko zakhe zonke,
Rwiyo rworwendo. Haiwa Jehovha, rangarirai Dhavhidhi namatambudziko ake ose aakasangana nawo.
2 ukuthi wafunga eNkosini, wathembisa kuSomandla kaJakobe:
Akapika mhiko kuna Jehovha, akaita mhiko kuna Wamasimba waJakobho achiti,
3 Qotho, kangiyikungena ethenteni lendlu yami, qotho, kangiyikwenyukela ecansini lombheda wami;
“Handingapindi mumba mangu kana kuenda kundovata pamubhedha wangu,
4 qotho, kangiyikunika amehlo ami ubuthongo, ukuwozela ezinkopheni zami,
handingatenderi hope mumaziso angu, kana kutsumwaira mumeso angu,
5 ngize ngiyitholele iNkosi indawo, indawo zokuhlala uSomandla kaJakobe.
kusvikira ndawana nzvimbo yaJehovha, nzvimbo yokugara yoWamasimba waJakobho.”
6 Khangela, sakuzwa eEfratha, sakuthola emasimini egusu.
Takazvinzwa muEfurata, takasangana nazvo muminda yeJaari tikati,
7 Sizangena ezindlini zayo zokuhlala, sikhonze esenabelweni senyawo zayo.
“Ngatiendei kunzvimbo yake yokugara; ngatinamatei pachitsiko chetsoka dzake,
8 Sukuma, Nkosi, uye ekuphumuleni kwakho, wena lomtshokotsho wamandla akho!
haiwa Jehovha, simukai muuye kunzvimbo yenyu yokuzorora, imi neareka yesimba renyu.
9 Abapristi bakho kabembeswe ukulunga, labangcwele bakho bathabe kakhulu.
Vaprista venyu dai vafukidzwa nokururama; dai vatsvene venyu vaimba nomufaro.”
10 Ngenxa yenceku yakho uDavida ungafulathelisi ubuso bogcotshiweyo wakho.
Nokuda kwaDhavhidhi muranda wenyu, musaramba muzodziwa wenyu.
11 INkosi yafunga ngeqiniso kuDavida, kayiyikubuyela emuva kilo: Owesithelo sesizalo sakho ngizambeka esihlalweni sakho sobukhosi.
Jehovha akapika mhiko kuna Dhavhidhi, mhiko yechokwadi yaasingagoni kushandura achiti, “Mumwe wechizvarwa chako ndichamugadza pachigaro chako choushe,
12 Uba abantwana bakho begcina isivumelwano sami lezifakazelo zami engizabafundisa zona, labantwana babo bazahlala esihlalweni sakho sobukhosi kuze kube nini lanini.
kana vanakomana vako vakachengeta sungano yangu nezvandakatema zvandakavadzidzisa, ipapo vanakomana vavo vachagara pachigaro chako choushe nokusingaperi-peri.”
13 Ngoba iNkosi iyikhethile iZiyoni, iyifisile ibe yindawo yayo yokuhlala.
Nokuti Jehovha akasarudza Zioni, akarida kuti huve ugaro hwake achiti,
14 Le yindawo yami yokuphumula kuze kube nini lanini; lapha ngizahlala, ngoba ngiyifisile.
“Iyi ndiyo nzvimbo yangu yokuzorora nokusingaperi-peri; ipapa ndipo pandichagara samambo, nokuti ndakapada,
15 Ngizabusisa kakhulu ukudla kwayo, ngisuthise abayanga bayo ngesinkwa.
ndichariropafadza nezvakawanda; ndichagutsa varombo varo nezvokudya.
16 Labapristi bayo ngizabembathisa usindiso, labangcwele bayo bazahlabelela kakhulu ngenjabulo.
Ndichafukidza vaprista varo noruponeso, uye vatsvene varo vachagara vachiimba nomufaro.
17 Lapho ngizahlumisa uphondo lukaDavida; ngimisele ogcotshiweyo wami isibane.
“Pano ndipo pandichameresa nyanga yaDhavhidhi, uye ndichatungidza mwenje womuzodziwa wangu.
18 Izitha zakhe ngizazembathisa ihlazo, kodwa phezu kwakhe uzakhazimula umqhele wakhe wobukhosi.
Ndichafukidza vavengi vake nenyadzi, asi korona yake ichabwinya kwazvo.”
