Ndikhusele Kwabanonyamayo
Kumongameli weemvumo. Umhobe kaDavide.
Umthandazo ngonya olucwangcisiweyo: amadoda anobuhlungu benyushu yamaphimpi phantsi kwemilebe yabo, axhokonxa iimfazwe imini yonke aze athiye imigibe ngasecaleni lendlela. UDavide ucela uBawo wakhe ukuba amsithelise ngomhla wemfazwe, aze athembe ukuba abacinezelweyo baya kugwetyelwa ityala labo.
140 1Ndihlangule, Bawo, ebantwini abangendawo; undigcine kwabanonyamayo, 2abayila ububi ezintliziyweni zabo baze baxhokonxe iimfazwe imini yonke. 3Balola iilwimi zabo njengenyoka; ubuhlungu benyushu yamaphimpi bungaphantsi kwemilebe yabo.
4Ndigcine, Bawo, ezandleni zabangendawo; undigcine kwabanonyamayo, abaceba ukundikhubekisa. 5Abanekratshi bandifihlele umgibe; batwabulule izintya zomnatha; ngasecaleni lendlela bandibekele izirhintyelo.
6Ndathi kuBawo: “Wena unguBawo wam.” Live izwi lokutarhuzisa kwam ngenceba. 7Nkosi yam, Bawo, mandla osindiso lwam, ubusithelisile intloko yam ngomhla wemfazwe. 8Musa ukubapha, Bawo, iminqweno yabangendawo; ungaliphumeleliseli icebo labo, hleze baphakame.
9Ke ngeentloko zabo bandirhawulileyo, mabasibekelwe yimbandezelo yemilebe yabo. 10Mabawelwe ngamalahle avuthayo; mabaphoswe emlilweni, emingxunyeni edakayo, bangabuyi baphakame. 11Umhlebi makangamiseki ezweni; ububi mabuyizingele indoda enonyamayo, umva ngomva.
12Ndiyazi ukuba uBawo wethu uya kuyigwebela indlela yabacinezelweyo, abenzele ubulungisa abahlwempuzekileyo. 13Inene, amalungisa aya kubulela kwigama lakho; abathe tye baya kuhlala ebusweni bakho.
