IHubo

Imaskili.* Ihubo likaDavida ngesikhathi esebhalwini.+ Umthandazo.

142 Ngiphakamisa ilizwi lami ngibiza uJehova ngicela uncedo,+

Ngiphakamisa ilizwi lami ngimncenga uJehova ukuthi abe lomusa kimi.

2 Ngimtshela konke okungikhathazayo,

Ngimtshele zonke inhlupho zami+

3 Nxa sengiphela amandla.

Nxa sekunjalo wena uyayilinda indlela yami.+

Bafake umjibila

Endleleni engihamba kuyo.

4 Khangela esandleni sami sokudla ubone

Ukuthi akulamuntu olendaba lami.+

Akulandawo engingabalekela kuyo,+

Akulamuntu ozihlupha ngami.

5 Ngiyakubiza awu Jehova ngikucela ukuthi ungincede.

Ngithi: “Uyisiphephelo sami,+

Angila omunye ngaphandle kwakho.”*

6 Ngilalela nxa ngikhala ngicela uncedo

Ngoba ngikhathazeke kakhulu.

Ngikhulula kulabo abangihlukuluzayo+

Ngoba balamandla kulami.

7 Ngikhipha emgodini omnyama

Ukuze ngidumise ibizo lakho.

Kwangathi abalungileyo bangangibuthanela

Ngoba ungiphatha ngomusa.
