uBawo wam, uMalusi wam
Umhobe kaDavide.
UDavide umalusi ubhala ngokukhathalelwa nguBawo njengomntwana wakhe: uondliwa, useziswa, ubuyiswa xa umphefumlo wakhe utyhafa, uhamba entlanjeni yethunzi lokufa engenaloyiko, aze ahlale etafileni elungiselelwe phambi kweentshaba zakhe. Okulungileyo akumlandeli nje—kuyamsukela.
23 1uBawo wam ungumalusi wam; andisweli nto. 2Emadlelweni aluhlaza undilalisa phantsi; undikhokela ngasemanzini azolileyo. 3Uyawuhlaziya umphefumlo wam; undikhokela ezindleleni zobulungisa ngenxa yegama lakhe. 4Nangona ndihamba entlanjeni yethunzi lokufa, andiyi kuloyika nobubi, kuba wena unam; intonga yakho nomsimelelo wakho ziyandithuthuzela. 5Ulungisa itafile phambi kwam emehlweni eentshaba zam; uthambisa intloko yam ngeoli; indebe yam iyaphuphuma. 6Inene, okulungileyo nothando olungapheliyo kuya kundisukela yonke imihla yobomi bam, yaye ndohlala endlwini kaBawo wam ngonaphakade.
