1Kumongameli. KuYedutun. Umhobe kaDavide. Uthozamele kuThixo kwaphela umphefumlo wam; Kuvela kuye ukusindiswa kwam.2Nguye kwaphela iliwa lam, umsindisi wam, Ingxonde yam; andiyi kushukunyiswa kakhulu.3Kunini na nisuka indulumbane emntwini? Kunini na nimncinitha nonke niphela, enjengodonga oluzimkayo, enjengothango oluwayo?4Bagqibe kwelokuba bamtyhale bamsuse ekuphakameni kwakhe kuphele; Bakholene namanga; Basikelela elowo ngomlomo, embilinini yabo bayatshabhisa. (Phakamisani.)5Thozamela kuThixo yedwa, mphefumlo wam, Ngokuba livela kuye ithemba lam.6Nguye kwaphela iliwa lam, umsindisi wam, Ingxonde yam; andiyi kushukunyiswa.7KunoThixo ukusindiswa kwam nozuko lwam; Iliwa lokunqaba kwam nehlathi lam likuThixo.8Kholosani ngaye ngamaxesha onke, nina bantu; Phalazani intliziyo yenu phambi kwakhe. UThixo ulihlathi kuthi. (Phakamisani.)9Bangumphunga kwaphela onyana boluntu, ngamanga oonyana bamadoda; Esikalini bangenyuka, Bangumphunga bephelele.10Musani ukukholosa ngokudla abantu, Ningazenzi into engeyanto ngento exhakamfuliweyo. Yakwanda imfuyo, musani ukuyinyamekela.11Uthethe nto-nye uThixo, Ezi zinto zimbini ndizivile: Ukuba amandla ngakaThixo,12Nenceba yeyakho, Nkosi yam; Ngokuba uyababuyekeza, elowo ngokwezenzo zakhe.
