Ihubo 64
Kumqondisi wokuhlabela. Ihubo likaDavida.
1 Ake ungizwe, Oh Nkulunkulu, nxa ngiletha ukusola kwami;
vikela impilo yami ekusongelweni yisitha.
2 Ngifihla emacebeni abantu ababi,
kulokho kuxokozela kwezixhwali.
3 Bayazilola inlimi zabo njengezinkemba
bakhombele amazwi abo njengemitshoko ebulalayo.
4 Batshoka becathemele umuntu ongonanga lutho;
bayaphanga ukumciba bengelavalo.
5 Bayakhuthazana ngamacebo amabi,
bakhulumisana ngokufihla imijibila yabo;
bathi, “Sizabonwa ngubani?”
6 Baceba ukona besithi,
“Sesakhe icebo elihle kakhulu!”
Ngempela ingqondo yomuntu
lenhliziyo yakhe ilobuqili.
7 Kodwa uNkulunkulu uzabaciba ngemitshoko;
ngokuphangisa nje bazalahlwa phansi.
8 Uzakwenza banyeyane bona bodwa bacine sebedilizana;
bonke abababonayo
bazanyikinya amakhanda babahleke.
9 Bonke abantu bomhlaba bazakwesaba;
bazafakaza imisebenzi kaNkulunkulu
banakane ngalokho akwenzileyo.
10 Akuthi abalungileyo bathokoze kuThixo
baphephele kuye;
akuthi bonke abaqotho ngenhliziyo bamdumise.
