Amahubo 5

1 Beka indlebe emazwini ami, Nkosi; unanzelele ukububula kwami.

2 Lalela ilizwi lokukhala kwami, Nkosi yami loNkulunkulu wami; ngoba ngikhuleka kuwe.

3 Nkosi, ekuseni uzalizwa ilizwi lami; ekuseni ngizahlela umkhuleko wami ngakuwe, ngilinde.

4 Ngoba kawusuye uNkulunkulu othokoza ebubini; omubi kayikuhlala lawe.

5 Abazikhukhumezayo kabayikuma phambi kwamehlo akho; uzonda bonke abenzi bobubi.

6 Uzababhubhisa abaqamba amanga. INkosi iyamenyanya umuntu wegazi lenkohliso.

7 Kodwa mina, ngizangena endlini yakho ngobukhulu besihawu sakho, ngikhothame ngikhangele ethempelini lakho elingcwele, ngokukwesaba.

8 Nkosi, ngikhokhelele ekulungeni kwakho ngenxa yezitha zami, wenze indlela yakho iqonde phambi kwami.

9 Ngoba kalikho iqiniso emlonyeni wazo, ingaphakathi yazo izinkohlakalo; umphimbo wazo ulingcwaba elivulekileyo, zibamba amehlo ngolimi lwazo.

10 Tshono uthi zilecala, Nkulunkulu, kaziwe ngamacebo azo; uzilahle ngenxa yobunengi beziphambeko zazo, ngoba zikuvukele.

11 Kodwa kabathabe bonke abathembela kuwe, bamemeze kokuphela ngentokozo, ngoba ubavikele; lalabo abathanda ibizo lakho kabajabule kuwe.

12 Ngoba wena Nkosi, uzabusisa olungileyo, uzamhanqa ngomusa njengesihlangu esikhulu.
