1EkaDavide. Makabongwe uYehova, uliwa lam, Ulofundisa izandla zam ukulwa, Iminwe yam imfazwe.2Unceba yam, umboniselo yam, Ungxonde yam, umsindisi wam, mna lo; Ungweletshetshe yam, undizimela ngaye; Ulonyathelela abantu bam phantsi kwam.3Yehova, uyintoni na umntu, le nto umaziyo? Unyana womfo, le nto umnyamekelayo?4Umntu lo ufana nomphunga, Imihla yakhe injengethunzi elidlulayo.5Yehova, thoba amazulu akho, uhle; Phatha ezintabeni, ziqhume.6Banekisa imibane, uziphangalalise; Thuma iintolo zakho, uziduba-dube.7Thuma izandla zakho, zivele phezulu; Ndirhole, ndihlangule emanzini amakhulu. Esandleni soonyana bolunye uhlanga;8Abamlomo uthetha inkohlakalo, Abasandla sokunene sisesokunene sobuxoki.9Thixo, ndokuvumela ingoma entsha, Ndikubethele umrhubhe ontambo zilishumi;10Ulonika ookumkani usindiso, Ulohlangula uDavide umkhonzi wakhe ekreleni elinobubi.11Ndirhole, ndihlangule esandleni soonyana bolunye uhlanga, Abamlomo uthetha inkohlakalo, Abasandla sokunene sisesokunene sobuxoki;12Baze oonyana bethu babe njengezityalo ezikhulileyo ebutsheni babo; Iintombi zethu zibe njengeembombo ezivathisiweyo ngeemfakamfele ngokokwakhiwa kwebhotwe;13Oovimba bethu bazale, bavelise iintlobo ngeentlobo; Iigusha zethu zizale amawaka, zande ngezigidi emaphandleni ethu;14Iinkomo zethu zizale, Kungabikho kungenelwa, kungabikho kuthinjwa, Kungabikho kuhlahlamba ezitratweni zethu.15Hayi, uyolo lwabantu ekunjalo kubo! Hayi, uyolo lwabantu abaThixo unguYehova!
