IiNdumiso 55
1 Kumongameli. Eyokubethelwa ngezinto ezineentambo. Eyokuqiqa: ekaDavide. Wubekele indlebe umthandazo wam, Thixo, Musa ukuzifihla esikhungweni sam.2 Ndibazele indlebe undiphendule. Ndiyaphaphatheka ekucamngceni kwam, ndincwine,3 Ngenxa yelizwi lotshaba, Ngenxa yokuxinzelelwa phantsi ngabangendawo; Ngokuba zindiqengqela ubutshinga, Ziyandisukela ngomsindo.4 Intliziyo yam iyazibhija-bhija phakathi kwam; Izothuso zokufa zindiwele.5 Ukoyika nokuthuthumela kundingene; Ndigutyungelwe kukududuzela.6 Ndathi, Andaba bendinamaphiko njengehobe! Bendiya kubaleka ndiye ndihlale!7 Nanko ndibalekela kude, Ndilalise entlango. (Phakamisani.)8 Bendiya kukhawuleza, ndisinde Emoyeni ovuthuzayo naseluqhwitheleni.
9 Tshabalalisa, Nkosi yam, yahlula ulwimi lwazo; Ngokuba ndibone ukugonyamela nokubambana phakathi komzi.10 Imini nobusuku bajikeleza ezindongeni zawo; Ubutshinga nokwaphula kuphakathi kwawo;11 Ukweyelisela kuphakathi kwawo; Endaweni yembutho yawo akusuki ukuxinezela nokukhohlisa.12 Ngokuba asilutshaba olu lundingcikivayo; Bendiya kukuthwala oko. Asingondithiyileyo lo uzikhulisayo kum; Bendiya kusithela kuye.13 Nguwe, mntu ubungumlingane wam, Ikholwane lam endazana nalo,14 Ebesicweya kamnandi, Siye endlwini kaThixo silihlokondiba eligcobayo.15 Ukufa makubaqubule, Mabehle baye kwelabafileyo besaphilile; Ngokuba ububi busemizini yabo phakathi kwabo.
16 Mna ndinqula uThixo; UYehova uya kundisindisa.17 Ngokuhlwa, nakusasa, nasemini enkulu ndiya kucamngca, ndincwine; Uya kuliva izwi lam.18 Uwukhulula umphefumlo wam unoxolo, ukuze bangasondeli kum, Ngokuba baninzi abandichasayo.19 UThixo uya kuva, abaphendule, Uselokwamandulo ehleli, (Phakamisani.) Abo bangenanguquko, Bangamoyikiyo uThixo.20 Babasa isandla abaxolelene nabo; Bahlambela umnqophiso wabo;21 Ubuthelezi njengamasi umlomo wabo, Ke yimfazwe intliziyo yabo. Athambile amazwi abongaphezu kweoli, Kanti aziintlangothi zekrele.22 Umthwalo wakho wulahlele kuYehova; yena wokuzimasa; Akayi kuliyekela ilungisa lishukunyiswe naphakade.23 Wena ke, Thixo, uya kubahlisela emngxunyeni wesihogo. Abantu bamagazi nenkohliso abayi kuyiqingathisa imihla yabo; Ke mna ndikholose ngawe.
