Ingoma Yeengoma

7 “Qala bona zihle kangangani iinyawo zakho ngemapatlagwanenakho,

Ndodakazi ehloniphekileko!

Iinyonga zakho zinjengezinto zokuzikghabisa,

Ezenziwe zizandla zesisebenzi esinekghono.

Amathumbakho aliqubi lekoroyi,

Elibhodwe mathuthumbo wommango.

 3 Amabelakho

Anjengamaphahla weqina.+

Amehlwakho+ anjengeenziba eRhetjhibhoni,+

Ngesangweni leBhathi-Rabhimu.

Ipumulwakho injengombhotjhongo weLibhanoni,

Oqale ngeDamaseku.

 5 Ihlokwakho injengeKarameli,+

Begodu iinhluthu zakho+ zinjengewulu esipiridzana.+

 6 Qala bona umuhle begodu uthabisa kangangani,

Sithandwa sami, ukudlula koke okhunye okuthabisako!

 7 Umude njengomuthi wesundu,

Begodu amabelakho anjengamahlukuzo wesithelo sesundu.+

 8 Ngathi, ‘Ngizokukhwela emthini wesundu

Ngikhe isithelo sawo.’

Kwanga amabelakho angaba njengamahlukuzo wamadiribe,

Nephunga lokuphefumula kwakho libe njengelama-abhula,

 9 Begodu umlomakho ube njengewayini eliphuma phambili.”

“Kwangathi lingehla litjhelele emphinjeni wesithandwa sami,

Ligeleze kamnandi emilonyeni yalabo abaleleko.

10 Ngingowesithandwa sami+

Begodu sifuna mina kwaphela.

11 Yewize sithandwa sami,

Asikhambe siye emasimini;

Asihlale hlangana neentjalo ezinuka kamnandi.*+

12 Asivuke ekuseni siye emasimini wamadiribe

Siyokubona ukuthi amadiribe sekatlhurhile na,

Nokuthi amathuthumbo sekavulekile,+

Nokuthi amarharinada sekanamathuthumbo.+

Ngizokutjengisa lapho-ke indlela engikuthanda ngayo.+

13 Amakofe akhupha iphunga lawo elimnandi;

Eminyangwenethu kunayo yoke imihlobo yeenthelo.

Ezitja nezidala,

Ngikubekele zona sithandwa sami.
