< Amahubo 7 >
1 Nkosi, Nkulunkulu wami, ngiyathembela kuwe; ngisindisa kubo bonke abangizingelayo, ungikhulule.
Ishigayoni kaDavida ayihlabelela uThixo mayelana loKhushi umBhenjamini. Oh Thixo Nkulunkulu wami, ngiphephela kuwe; ngisindisa ungikhulule kubo bonke abangizingelayo,
2 Hlezi adabule umphefumulo wami njengesilwane, edabudabula, kungekho okhululayo.
ngoba bazanginithiza njengesilwane bangiklebule iziqanyana kungekho ongangilamulela.
3 Nkosi, Nkulunkulu wami, uba ngikwenzile lokhu, uba kukhona okubi ezandleni zami,
Oh Thixo, Nkulunkulu wami, nxa ngikwenzile lokhu izandla zami zilecala,
4 uba ngiphindisele okubi kosekuthuleni lami (kuphela ngaphanga oyisitha sami ngaphandle kwesizatho),
nxa ngenze okubi kulowo ohlalisene kuhle lami loba ngisuke ngaphanga isitha sami kungelasizatho,
5 isitha kasizingele umphefumulo wami, siwufice, siyinyathelele impilo yami emhlabathini, senze udumo lwami luhlale ethulini. (Sela)
nxa kunjalo akuthi isitha sami singihlasele; masigxobagxobele impilo yami emhlabathini singibhuqabhuqele phansi ebhuqwini.
6 Vuka, Nkosi, ngolaka lwakho, ziphakamise ngenxa yentukuthelo yezitha zami; vuka ungimele; ulayile isahlulelo.
Vuka, Oh Thixo, ngolaka lwakho; vuka uvimbele ukuthukuthela kwezitha zami. Vuka, Nkulunkulu wami, memezela ukwahlulela okuhle.
7 Ngakho inhlangano yezizwe izakuhanqa; buya ngaphezulu phezu kwayo.
Akuthi abantu bebuthene bakuhanqe busa phezu kwabo usekuphakameni.
8 INkosi izakwahlulela izizwe. Ngahlulela, Nkosi, njengokulunga kwami lanjengobuqotho bami obukimi.
UThixo kahlulele bonke abantu. Ngahlulele, Oh Thixo ngokwanele ukulunga kwami, ngokwanele ubuqotho bami, wena oPhezukonke.
9 Ake buphele ububi bababi, kodwa umqinise olungileyo, ngoba ohlola inhliziyo lezinso nguNkulunkulu olungileyo.
Oh Nkulunkulu olungileyo, ohlolisisa imicabango lezinhliziyo, qeda udlakela lwababi ukuze abalungileyo bavikeleke.
10 Isihlangu sami sikuNkulunkulu osindisa abaqotho enhliziyweni.
Isihlangu sami nguNkulunkulu oPhezukonke, osindisa abaqotho ngenhliziyo.
11 UNkulunkulu ngumahluleli olungileyo, njalo nguNkulunkulu othukuthelela omubi insuku zonke.
UNkulunkulu ngumahluleli olungileyo, uNkulunkulu obonisa ulaka lwakhe insuku zonke.
12 Uba engaphenduki, uzalola inkemba yakhe; useligobile idandili lakhe walilungisa.
Nxa umuntu engadeli ububi bakhe uzalola inkemba yakhe; uzaligoba alithiye idandili lakhe.
13 Usemlungisele izikhali zokufa, wenzela abazingeli imitshoko yakhe etshisayo.
Usezilungisile izikhali zakhe ezibulalayo; uselungisa imitshoko yakhe evutha umlilo.
14 Khangela, uhelelwa ngobubi, akhulelwe yikona, azale amanga.
Lowo osuthiswe ngobubi akhulelwe yikona uzala ukuphumputheka.
15 Agebhe umgodi awugubhe, abesewela egodini alenzileyo.
Lowo omba umgodi awuphande uwela kulowomgodi awumbileyo.
16 Ububi bakhe buzabuyela phezu kwekhanda lakhe, lodlame lwakhe lwehlele enkanda yakhe.
Inkathazo ayidalileyo iyamphendukela; lesihluku sakhe sehlela phezu kwekhanda lakhe.
17 Ngizayidumisa iNkosi njengokulunga kwayo, ngihlabelele ibizo leNkosi ephezu konke.
Ngizambonga uThixo ngenxa yokulunga kwakhe; ngizahlabelela indumiso egameni likaThixo oPhezukonke.
