8 Kodwa mina ngizafanana lesihlahla sama-oliva esiyisithingithingi esisendlini kaNkulunkulu,

Ngilethemba lokuthi uNkulunkulu uzangithanda+ kuze kube nini lanini.

 3 Lokuthi ngincede labo abakhalela iZiyoni,

Ngibanike iqhiye yentokozo esikhundleni somlotha,

Ngibaphe lamafutha enjabulo esikhundleni sokulila,

Lesigqoko sokudumisa esikhundleni sokudana.

Bazabizwa ngokuthi bayizihlahla ezinkulu zokulunga,

Izihlahla ezihlanyelwe nguJehova ukuze akhazinyuliswe.+

22 Abasoze bakhe besekuhlala omunye umuntu,

Kumbe balime kudle abanye abantu.

Ngoba insuku zabantu bami zizakuba njengensuku zesihlahla,+

Abakhethiweyo bami bazawukholisa kakhulu* umsebenzi wezandla zabo.
