Ihubo 54
Kumqondisi wokuhlabela. Kutshaywa iziginci. Ihubo likaDavida. Lapho amaZifi aya kuSawuli afika athi, “Kanti uDavida kacatshanga yini phakathi kwethu?”
Ngisindisa, awu Nkulunkulu, ngebizo lakho;
ngigeza ecaleni ngamandla akho.
Zwana umkhuleko wami, Oh Nkulunkulu;
lalela amazwi omlomo wami.
 
Ngihlaselwa ngabantu engingabaziyo;
izikliwi zifuna impilo yami
abantu abangamnanzanga uNkulunkulu.
 
Ngeqiniso uNkulunkulu ulusizo lwami;
uThixo nguye ongisizayo.
 
Akuthi ububi bubuyele phezu kwalabo abangigconayo;
ngokuthembeka kwakho babhubhise.
 
Ngizakwenzela umhlatshelo owomnikelo wokuzithandela;
ngizalidumisa ibizo lakho, Thixo, ngoba lihle.
Ngoba ingikhulule kuzozonke inhlupheko zami,
lamehlo ami akubonile ukunqotshwa kwezitha zami.
