1 Isikali esikhohlisayo singamasikizi kuYehova; Ilitye elizeleyo lilikholo kuye.

2 Kwafika ukukhukhumala, kofika ukucukucezwa; Bunabathozamileyo ubulumko.

3 Ingqibelelo yabathe tye iyabakhapha; Ukuphenula kwamanginingini kuyawabhuqa.

4 Abunyusi ubuncwane ngemini yokuphuphuma komsindo; Ubulungisa buyahlangula ekufeni.

5 Ubulungisa bogqibeleleyo bulungelelanisa indlela yakhe; Ongendawo uwa kwangokungendawo kwakhe.6 Ubulungisa babathe tye buyabahlangula; Amanginingini athiwa hlasi kwayimbimbithelo yawo.

7 Ekufeni komntu ongendawo liyaphela ithemba lakhe; Ukulinda kwabanamandla obudoda kutshabalele.

8 Ilungisa liyahlangulwa embandezelweni, Kufike ongendawo esikhundleni salo.

9 Intshembenxa iyamonakalisa ummelwane wayo ngomlomo; Ke ayahlangulwa amalungisa ngokwazi.

10 Isixeko siyadlamka ngokuhlala kakuhle kwamalungisa; Ekutshoneni kwabangendawo kuyamemelelwa.11 Ngentsikelelo yabathe tye siyaphaka nyiswa isixeko; Ngomlomo wabangendawo siyahleleleka.

12 Odela ummelwane wakhe uswele intliziyo: Ke indoda enengqondo ihlala ithi tu.13 Ohamba ehleba uhlakaza ucweyo; Ke yena omoya unyanisileyo uyayigubungela into.

14 Kwakuba kungekho mbonisi, bayawa abantu; Usindiso lusebuninzini bamaphakathi.

15 Kubi kakhulu komele omnye; Ke yena okuthiyayo ukumela omnye ukholosile.

16 Umfazi osimilo silungileyo uzizekela uzuko; Abanobungqwangangqwili bazizekela ubutyebi.

17 Uwuphethe kakuhle umphefumlo wakhe umtu onenceba; Isijorha siyihlisele ishwangusha inyama yaso.

18 Ongendawo usebenzela umvuzo oyinkohliso; Ke yena ohlwayela ubulungisa unomvuzo oyinyaniso.

19 Ubulungisa obububo busingisa ebomini; Ophuthuma ububi usingisa ekuzibulaleni kwakhe.

20 Ngamasikizi kuYehova abantliziyo zijibilizayo; Ukholwa ngabo bandlela zigqibeleleyo.

21 Ukakade onobubi akabi msulwa; Ke yona imbewu yamalungisa iyasinda.

22 Likhonkco legolide ethatheni lehagu Inzwakazi eswele izimvo.

23 Umnqweno wamalungisa yinto elungileyo yodwa; Ithemba labangendawo kukuphuphuma nje komsindo.

24 Kukho ohlakazayo, aye esanda ngokwanda; Kukho nozinqandayo kokumfaneleyo, oko kube yintswelo yodwa.

25 Umphefumlo osikelelayo uyatyetyiswa; Oseza ahluthise abanye, uyasezwa ahluthe naye.

26 Omangala nengqolowa, luyamqalekisa uluntu; Intsikelelo isentlokweni yothengisa ngayo.

27 Ozondelele okulungileyo ufuna okwamkelekileyo; Ongxamele ububi, buya kumfikela.

28 Okholosa ngobutyebi bakhe uya kuwa yena; Ke amalungisa aya kuhluma njengamagqabi.

29 Ogxugxisa indlu yakhe uya kudla ilifa elingumoya; Isimathane soba ngumkhonzi kontliziyo ilumkileyo.

30 Isiqhamo selungisa ngumthi wobomi; Umbambisi wemiphefumlo sisilumko.

31 Yabona, ilungisa liyavuzwa ehlabathini; Wobeka phi na ke ongendawo nomoni!
