AmaHubo

Imaskili* likaDavide lapho esemhumeni. + Umthandazo.

142 Ngezwi lami, ngicela usizo kuJehova; +

Ngezwi lami, ngincenga uJehova ukuba angibonise umusa.

2 Ngithululela ukukhathazeka kwami kuye;

Ngimtshela ngokucindezeleka kwami +

3 Lapho umoya wami udangala* ngaphakathi kimi.

Khona-ke wena uqapha indlela yami. +

Endleleni engihamba kuyo,

Bangifihlela isicupho.

4 Bheka ngasesandleni sami sokudla ubone

Ukuthi akekho noyedwa onendaba nami. *+

Akukho lapho ngingabalekela khona; +

Akekho noyedwa ozikhathaza ngami.

5 O Jehova, ngilucela kuwe usizo.

Ngithi: “Wena uyisiphephelo sami, +

Uwukuphela komuntu enginaye* ezweni labaphilayo.”

6 Lalela lapho ngikhalela usizo,

Ngoba ngithotshiswe kakhulu.

Ngikhulule kulabo abangishushisayo, +

Ngoba banamandla kunami.

7 Ngikhiphe* ejele

Ukuze ngidumise igama lakho.

Kwangathi abalungile bangangizungeza

Ngoba ungiphatha ngomusa.
