AmaHubo

132 O Jehova, khumbula uDavide

Nakho konke ukuhlupheka kwakhe; +

 2 Indlela afunga ngayo kuJehova,

Indlela enza ngayo isifungo konaMandla kaJakobe, wathi: +

Ngeke ngilale kusofa wami, embhedeni wami;

 4 Ngeke ngiwavumele amehlo ami alale,

Noma amehlo ami ukuba ozele

 5 Ngize ngitholele uJehova indawo,

Indawo yokuhlala ekahle* yonaMandla kaJakobe.” +

 6 Bheka! Sizwile ngawo* e-Efratha; +

Sawuthola ezinkalweni zehlathi. +

 7 Masingeneni etabernakele lakhe elikhulu; *+

Masikhothameni endaweni yakhe yokubeka izinyawo. *+

 8 O Jehova, vuka, ukuze uze endaweni yakho yokuphumula, +

Wena noMphongolo wamandla akho. +

 9 Abapristi bakho mabembathe ukulunga,

Abantu bakho abaqotho mabamemeze ngenjabulo.

10 Ngenxa kaDavide inceku yakho,

Ungamlahli ogcotshiwe* wakho. +

11 UJehova ufungile kuDavide;

Nakanjani ngeke akushintshe akusho lapho ethi:

“Oyedwa enzalweni yakho,*

Ngizombeka esihlalweni sakho sobukhosi. +

12 Uma amadodana akho egcina isivumelwano sami

Nezikhumbuzo zami engiwafundisa zona, +

Namadodana awo

Ayohlala phakade esihlalweni sakho sobukhosi.” +

13 Ngoba uJehova ukhethe iZiyoni; +

Ulithandile ukuba libe yindawo yakhe yokuhlala, + wathi:

14 “Lena yindawo yami yokuphumula yaphakade;

Ngizohlala lapha, + ngoba lokhu kuyisifiso sami.

15 Ngizolibusisa ngokudla okuningi;

Ngizokwanelisa abampofu abahlala khona ngesinkwa. +

16 Abapristi balo ngizobembathisa insindiso, +

Nabaqotho balo bayomemeza ngenjabulo. +

18 Izitha zakhe ngizozembathisa amahloni,

Kodwa umqhele osekhanda lakhe uyochuma.” +
