69 Ngisindisa awu Nkulunkulu, ngoba sengigalula.+
2 Sengitshone edakeni, akulandawo eqinileyo enginganyathela kuyo.+
Ngiphakathi kwamanzi atshonayo,
Ngithethwe ngumfula olamanzi ageleza ngesiqubu esikhulu.+
3 Sengimemeze ngaze ngaphela amandla,+
Lelizwi selitshile.
Amehlo ami asefiphele ngilokhu ngilindele uNkulunkulu wami.+
4 Labo abangizonda ngingonanga lutho+
Banengi kulenwele ezisekhanda lami.
Sebebanengi abafuna ukungibulala,
Labo abayizitha zami labangamaqili.
Bangibamba ngamandla ukuthi ngibuyisele lokho engingakutshontshanga.
5 Awu Nkulunkulu, uyabazi ubuthutha bami,
Lesono sami asifihlekanga kuwe.
6 Labo abathembele kuwe kabangayangeki ngenxa yami,
Awu Nkosi Enkulu, Jehova wamabutho.
Labo abakudingayo kabangehlelwa lihlazo ngenxa yami,
Awu Nkulunkulu ka-Israyeli.
8 Kubafowethu sengingumuntu wokuza,
Abantwana bakamama sebengiphatha njengowezizweni.+
10 Ngesikhathi ngizile ukudla ngizehlisa*
Ngathethiswa.
11 Lapho ngigqoke isembatho sesaka
Bangenza inhlekisa.
12 Abahlezi egedini ledolobho sebetshona bekhuluma ngami,
Sengiyingoma yezidakwa.
13 Kwangathi ungawuzwa umthandazo wami
Ngesikhathi esifaneleyo,+ awu Jehova.
Ngiphendula utshengise ukuthi ungumsindisi wami othembekileyo,+
Ngoba uthando lwakho oluqotho lukhulu, awu Nkulunkulu.
14 Ngikhipha edakeni,
Ungangiyekeli ngitshone.
Ngikhulula kulabo abangizondayo,
Ungikhiphe emanzini atshonayo.+
15 Ungayekeli amanzi angikhukhule,+
Ungavumeli ukuthi ngicwile enzikini yawo,
Kumbe ukuthi ngidilikelwe ngumgodi.+
16 Ngiphendula awu Jehova ngoba uthando lwakho oluqotho luhle.+
Ngiphendula ngoba ulesihawu esikhulu.+
17 Ungangifihleli ubuso bakho.+
Ngiphendula masinyane ngoba ngikhathazekile.+
18 Sondela kimi ungikhulule,
Ngisindisa ezitheni zami.
19 Uyakwazi ukuthethiswa lokuyangiswa kwami kanye lehlazo elingehleleyo.+
Uyazibona zonke izitha zami.
20 Ukuthethiswa kungilimazile ngaphakathi, isilonda sakhona aselapheki.*
22 Kwangathi itafula yabo ingaba ngumjibila kubo,
Lenotho yabo ibathiye.+
23 Kwangathi amehlo abo angafiphala bangaboni lutho,
Yenza imizimba yabo ihlale iqhuqha.*
24 Kwangathi ungathululela intukuthelo yakho phezu kwabo,
Ulaka lwakho oluvuthayo lwehlele kubo.+
25 Lapho abahlala khona akusale kungamanxiwa,
Kungabi lomuntu ohlala ematendeni abo.+
26 Baxotshanisa umuntu omtshayileyo,
Baqhubeka bekhuluma ngobuhlungu babantu obalimazileyo.
27 Bethese elinye icala phezu kwamacala abo,
Ungabatshengisi ukulunga kwakho.
28 Kabacitshwe ebhukwini labaphilayo.*+
Kabangabhalwa ndawonye labalungileyo.+
29 Kodwa mina ngiyahlupheka njalo ngisebuhlungwini.+
Awu Nkulunkulu, kwangathi amandla akho okusindisa angangivikela.
30 Ngizahlabela ngidumise ibizo likaNkulunkulu,
Ngimkhazimulise ngokumbonga.
31 Lokhu kuzamthokozisa uJehova ukwedlula ukunikela ngenkunzi,
Kuzamthokozisa ukwedlula ukunikela ngejongosi elilempondo lamasondo.+
32 Abamnene bazakubona lokhu bathokoze.
Inhliziyo zenu kazivuseleleke lina elidinga uNkulunkulu.
34 Izulu lomhlaba akumdumise,+
Lolwandle lakho konke okuhlala kulo akumdumise.
35 UNkulunkulu uzayisindisa iZiyoni,+
Awakhe kutsha amadolobho akoJuda.
Bazahlala kuwo, ilizwe libe ngelabo.
36 Ilizwe lizakuba lilifa lezizukulwane zezinceku zakhe.+
Abathanda ibizo lakhe+ bazahlala kulo.
