Isikhalo Esivela Eziphelweni Zomhlaba
Kumongameli wokuhlabela; ngezixhobo ezineentambo. EkaDavide.
Umthandazo othunyelwa esuka eziphelweni zomhlaba ngumntu ontliziyo ityhafayo, ecela uBawo wakhe ukuba amse eliweni eliphakame kunaye. Ufuna ukuhlala endaweni kunokutyelela nje — intente yakho ngonaphakade — nobomi obude bukakumkani.
61 1Yiva isikhalo sam, Bawo wam; uphulaphule umthandazo wam. 2Ndisuka eziphelweni zomhlaba ndikhwaza kuwe, xa intliziyo yam ityhafa; undikhokelele eliweni eliphakame kunam. 3Kaloku ube uyindawo yam yokusabela, inqaba eyomeleleyo echasene notshaba.
4Ndilangazelela ukuhlala ententeni yakho ngonaphakade, ndisabele esikhuselweni samaphiko akho. 5Kuba wena, Bawo wam, uzivile izifungo zam; undinike ilifa labo baloyikayo igama lakho. 6Yongeza iminyaka ebomini bukakumkani; makube iminyaka yakhe ingangezizukulwana ezininzi. 7Wanga angahlala etroneni phambi koBawo wethu ngonaphakade; yalela inceba yakho nokunyaniseka ukuze kumgcine. 8Ngoko ke ndohlala ndidumisa igama lakho, ndizalisekise izifungo zam imihla ngemihla.
