AmaHubo 35:1-28
ElikaDavide.
35 O Jehova, mela icala lami kulabo abaphikisana nami; +Yilwa nalabo abalwa nami. +
2 Thatha ihawu lakho elincane nehawu elikhulu, +Uphakame ukuze ungivikele. +
3 Phakamisa umkhonto nembazo* yempi ngokumelene nabangijahayo. +
Yithi kimi: “Ngiyinsindiso yakho.” +
4 Kwangathi labo abazingela ukuphila kwami bangahlazeka balulazeke. +
Kwangathi labo abaceba ukungibulala bangabaleka behlazekile.
5 Kwangathi bangaba njengamakhoba apheshulwa umoya;Kwangathi ingelosi kaJehova ingabaxosha. +
6 Kwangathi indlela yabo ingaba mnyama isheleleNjengoba ingelosi kaJehova ibajaha.
7 Ngoba bangifihlele inethi ukuze bangicuphe ngaphandle kwesizathu;Bangimbele* umgodi ngaphandle kwesizathu.
8 Kwangathi bangehlelwa yinhlekelele bengalindele;Kwangathi bangabanjwa yinethi abalifihlile;Kwangathi bangawela kulo bafe. +
9 Kodwa mina ngizojabula* ngoJehova;Ngizothokoza ngensindiso yakhe.
10 Mangithi ngenhliziyo yami yonke:
“O Jehova, ngubani onjengawe?
Ukhulula ohluphekile kulabo abanamandla, +Ukhulule ohluphekile nompofu kulabo abamphangayo?” +
11 Kuvela ofakazi abangalungile, +Bangibuza ngezinto engingazi lutho ngazo.
12 Bangibuyisela ngokubi kokuhle engikwenzile, +Bangenza ngizizwe ngisosizini.
13 Kodwa lapho begula, ngembatha indwangu yesaka;Ngazihlupha* ngokuzila ukudla,Lapho umthandazo wami ungaphendulwa,*
14 Ngahambahamba ngilila njengokungathi ngililela umngane noma umfowethu;Ngakhothama ngisosizini njengomuntu olilela unina.
15 Kodwa lapho ngikhubeka, bajabula babuthana ndawonye;Babuthana ndawonye ukuze bangihlasele;Bangidwengula ngaba yizicucu futhi abazange bathule.
16 Abangamhloniphi uNkulunkulu bangihleka usulu,*Bangigedlela amazinyo abo. +
17 O Jehova, kuyoze kube nini ulokhu ubukele? +
Ngisindise ekuhlaseleni kwabo, +Usindise ukuphila kwami okuyigugu* emabhubesini. *+
18 Khona-ke ngiyokubonga ebandleni elikhulu; +Ngiyokudumisa phakathi kwabantu abaningi.
19 Ungabavumeli labo abayizitha zami ngaphandle kwesizathu bajabule ngami;Ungabavumeli labo abangizonda ngaphandle kwesizathu + ukuba bacifelane iso ngezinhloso ezimbi. +
20 Ngoba abakhulumi amazwi okuthula,Kodwa baceba amanga ngabantu bezwe abanokuthula. +
21 Bawuvula kakhulu umlomo wabo ukuze bangidelele,Bathi: “Nakho-ke! Nakho-ke! Sikubonile ukuwa kwakhe.”
22 O Jehova, ukubonile lokhu. Ungathuli. +
O Jehova, ungabi kude nami. +
23 Vuka, sukuma ungivikele,Nkulunkulu wami, Jehova, ngivikele ecaleni lami lomthetho.
24 O Jehova Nkulunkulu wami, ngahlulele ngokokulunga kwakho; +Ungabavumeli bajabule ngami.
25 Kwangathi bangelokothe bathi enhliziyweni yabo: “Nakho-ke! Sikutholile ebesikufuna.”
Kwangathi bangelokothe bathi: “Siqedile ngaye.” +
26 Mababe namahloni bahlazeke bonke,Labo abasizakala ngenhlekelele yami.
Mababe namahloni balulazeke labo abaziphakamisayo kimi.
27 Kodwa labo abathokoza ngokulunga kwami mabamemeze ngenjabulo;Kwangathi njalo bangathi:
“Makadunyiswe uJehova, ojabula ngokuthula kwenceku yakhe.” +
28 Ulimi lwami luyokhuluma* ngokulunga kwakho +Lukudumise usuku lonke. +
