Ukukhala Okuvela Emikhawulweni Yomhlaba
Kumqondisi wokuhlabelela; ngezinsimbi zezintambo. ElikaDavide.
Umthandazo othunyelwe emikhawulweni yomhlaba ngumuntu inhliziyo yakhe ephelelwa amandla, ecela uBaba wakhe ukuba amholele edwaleni eliphakeme kunaye. Ufuna ukuhlala unomphela kunokuvakasha — etendeni lakho kuze kube phakade — nokuphila isikhathi eside kwenkosi.
61 1Yizwa ukukhala kwami, Baba wami; lalela umkhuleko wami. 2Kusukela emikhawulweni yomhlaba ngibiza kuwe, lapho inhliziyo yami iphela amandla; ngiholele edwaleni eliphakeme kunami. 3Ngokuba ube yisiphephelo sami, inqaba eqinile emelene nesitha.
4Ngilangazelela ukuhlala etendeni lakho kuze kube phakade, ngiphephele ngaphansi komthunzi wamaphiko akho. 5Ngokuba wena, Baba wami, uzizwile izifungo zami; unginikile ifa lalabo abesaba igama lakho. 6Yengeza iminyaka empilweni yenkosi; iminyaka yakhe mayelule kuze kube yizizukulwane eziningi. 7Makahlale esihlalweni sobukhosi phambi kukaBaba wethu kuze kube phakade; yabela umusa wakho wesivumelwano nokuthembeka ukuba kumlinde. 8Khona-ke ngiyakuhlabelela njalo igama lakho, ngifeze izifungo zami imihla ngemihla.
