Amahubo 56

1 Kumqondisi wokuhlabela. Kulandelwa itshuni ethi, “Ijuba phezu kwemikusu ekude.” ElikaDavida. Imikithamu. Lapho wayesethunjwe ngamafilistiya eGathi. Woba lomusa kimi, Oh Nkulunkulu, ngoba abantu baxotshana lami kubi; ilanga lonke bayajujumezela bengihlasela.

2 Labo abangigconayo baxotshana lami ilanga lonke; abanengi bangihlasela bekloloda.

3 Nxa ngisesaba ngizathemba kuwe.

4 KuNkulunkulu, engidumisa ibizo lakhe, ngithemba kuye uNkulunkulu; angiyikwesaba. Umuntu wenyama angenzani kimi?

5 Ilanga lonke batshona behlanekela amazwi ami; beqoqa ukungibhidliza.

6 Bayabuthana bengicathamela balandele izinyathelo zami betshisekela ukucitsha impilo yami.

7 Loba sekutheni ungabayekeli baphunyuke; ngokuthukuthela kwakho, Nkulunkulu, zidilize izizwe.

8 Bhala phansi isililo sami; bhala ithonsi ngalinye lezinyembezi zami emqulwini wakho kazikho yini emibhalweni yakho?

9 Lapho-ke izitha zami zizafulathela nxa sengicela uncedo. Ngalokhu ngizakwazi ukuthi uNkulunkulu ulami.

10 KuNkulunkulu, engidumisa ibizo lakhe, kuThixo engidumisa ibizo lakhe,

11 kuNkulunkulu ngiyathemba; angiyikwesaba. Umuntu angenzani kimi na?

12 Ngibanjwe yizifungo kuwe, Oh Nkulunkulu; ngizakwethula umnikelo wami wokubonga kuwe.

13 Ngoba ungikhulule ekufeni lezinyawo zami lapho ngikhubeka, ukuze ngihambe phambi kukaNkulunkulu ekukhanyeni kwempilo.
