1Jehova, yizwa umkhuleko wami, ubeke indlebe ekuncengeni kwami; ungiphendule ngokuthembeka kwakho nokulunga kwakho.
2Ungangeni ekwahluleleni nenceku yakho, ngokuba akukho muntu okhona olungile emehlweni akho.
3Ngokuba isitha siyazingela umphefumulo wami, sicindezela phansi emhlabathini ukuphila kwami; singihlalisile ebumnyameni njengabakade bafa.
4Umoya wami uphelile kimi; inhliziyo yami igongobele phakathi kwami.
5Ngiyakhumbula izinsuku zasendulo, ngizindla ngemisebenzi yakho yonke, ngicabange ngezenzo zezandla zakho.
6Ngiyazelulela izandla zami kuwe; umphefumulo wami womela wena njengomhlaba owomileyo. Sela*
7Shesha ungiphendule, Jehova; umoya wami uyaphela; ungangifihleli ubuso bakho, funa ngifane nabashona egodini.
8Ngizwise umusa wakho ekuseni, ngokuba ngiyethemba kuwe; ngazise indlela engifanele ukuhamba ngayo, ngokuba ngiphakamisela kuwe umphefumulo wami.
9Ngikhulule ezitheni zami; Jehova, ngicashe kuwe.
10Ngifundise ukwenza intando yakho, ngokuba wena unguNkulunkulu wami; umoya wakho omuhle mawungihole emhlabathini olelezekileyo.
11Jehova, ngiphilise ngenxa yegama lakho, ngokulunga kwakho uwukhiphe umphefumulo wami ekuhluphekeni.
12Zinqume izitha zami ngomusa wakho, ubabhubhise bonke abahlupha umphefumulo wami, ngokuba ngiyinceku yakho.
