< Amahubo 141 >
1 Nkosi, ngiyakhala kuwe; phangisa uze kimi; beka indlebe elizwini lami lapho ngikhala kuwe.
`The salm `of Dauith. Lord, Y criede to thee, here thou me; yyue thou tent to my vois, whanne Y schal crye to thee.
2 Umkhuleko wami kawumiswe njengempepha phambi kwakho, ukuphakanyiswa kwezandla zami njengomnikelo wakusihlwa.
Mi preier be dressid as encense in thi siyt; the reisyng of myn hondis be as the euentid sacrifice.
3 Nkosi, bekela umlomo wami umlindi, gcina umnyango wendebe zami.
Lord, sette thou a keping to my mouth; and a dore of stonding aboute to my lippis.
4 Ungaphenduleli inhliziyo yami entweni embi, ukuthi ngenze izenzo ezimbi kanye labantu abenza ububi, ngingadli ezibilibocweni zabo.
Bowe thou not myn herte in to wordis of malice; to excuse excusingis in synne. With men worchinge wickidnesse; and Y schal not comyne with the chosun men of hem.
5 Olungileyo kangitshaye ethandwenilomusa, angisole; kuzakuba ngamafutha ekhanda, ikhanda lami kalingawali, ngoba lomkhuleko wami usezakuba sezinhluphekweni zabo.
A iust man schal repreue me in mersi, and schal blame me; but the oile of a synner make not fat myn heed. For whi and yit my preier is in the wel plesaunt thingis of hem;
6 Abahluleli babo baphoselwa emaceleni edwala, bazakuzwa amazwi ami ngoba amnandi.
for the domesmen of hem ioyned to the stoon weren sopun vp. Here thei my wordis,
7 Amathambo ethu ahlakazekile emlonyeni wengcwaba njengobandayo adabule emhlabathini. (Sheol )
for tho weren myyti. As fatnesse is brokun out on the erthe; oure bonys ben scatered niy helle. Lord, Lord, (Sheol )
8 Kodwa amehlo ami akuwe, Jehova, Nkosi; ngithembele kuwe; ungawuchayi umphefumulo wami.
for myn iyen ben to thee, Y hopide in thee; take thou not awei my soule.
9 Ngigcina emandleni omjibila abangibekele wona, lezithiyo zabenzi bobubi.
Kepe thou me fro the snare which thei ordeyneden to me; and fro the sclaundris of hem that worchen wickidnesse. Synneris schulen falle in the nett therof;
10 Ababi kabawele emambuleni abo kanye, ngize ngidlule mina.
Y am aloone til Y passe.
