1 Kukhumbule, Yehova, okusihleleyo; Bheka, uyibone ingcikivo yethu.2 Ilifa lethu lisuke lenziwa elabasemzini, Izindlu zethu zalunga kwabolunye uhlanga.3 Siziinkedama, asinabawo; Oma banjengabahlolokazi.4 Amanzi ethu siwasela ngesilivere; Iinkuni zethu ziza kuthi ngexabiso.5 Intshutshiso iphezu kwentamo yethu; Sidiniwe, asinakuphumla.6 Isandla sisinika amaYiputa, Nama-Asiriya, ukuba sihluthe sisonka.7 Oobawo bonile, abasekho; Thina sithwele ubugwenxa babo.8 Silawulwa ngabakhonzi; Akukho usiqhiwulayo ezandleni zabo.9 Isonka sethu sisizuza ngomphefumlo wethu usisichenge. Ngenxa yekrele lasentlango.10 Ulusu lwethu luyavutha njengeziko Ngenxa yolophu lwendlala.11 Badlwengule abafazi eZiyon, Iintombi emizini yakwaYuda.12 Baxhome abathetheli ngezandla; Ubuso bamadoda amakhulu abubekwa.13 Amadodana athwala amatye okusila, Amakhwenkwe akhubeka phantsi kweenkuni.14 Amadoda amakhulu aphezile ukuya esangweni; Amadodana, ekubetheni uhadi.15 Iphelile imihlali yentliziyo yethu, Ukuqamba kwethu kujike kwaba kukumbambazela.16 Siwile isithsaba entlokweni yethu; Yeha ke thina! kuba sonile.

17 Ngenxa yoko ityhafile intliziyo yethu; Ngenxa yezo zinto amnyama amehlo ethu;18 Ngenxa yentaba yaseZiyon, kuba ibharhile, Kuhamba iimpungutye phezu kwayo.19 Wena, Yehova, uhleli ngonaphakade; Itrone yakho ikwisizukulwana ngesizukulwana.20 Yini na ukuba usilibale ngonaphakade, Usilahle imihla emide?21 Sibuyisele kuwe, Yehova; sobuya; Hlaziya imihla yethu njengokwamandulo.22 Ungaba usicekise mpela na, Wanoburhalarhume kuthi ngokukhulukazi na?
