IHubo
Kumqondisi wokuhlabela. Ihubo likaDavida.
2 Wangikhipha emgodini olamanzi ahlokomayo,
Wangenyula edakeni.
Wangibeka phezu kwedwala,
Wangimisa endaweni eqinileyo.
3 Wasengifundisa ingoma entsha,+
Ingoma yokudumisa uNkulunkulu.
Abanengi bazakubona lokhu bamangale,
Besebethembela kuJehova.
4 Uyathokoza umuntu othembela kuJehova,
Lowo ongathembeli ebantwini abangalaleliyo kumbe abaphambukela endleleni engayisiyo.*
5 Zinengi kakhulu izinto ozenzileyo,
Jehova Nkulunkulu wami,
Imisebenzi yakho iyamangalisa njalo uhlala ucabanga ngathi.+
Nxa bengingazama ukukhuluma ngitshele abantu ngayo,
Bengingeke ngiyiqede ngoba minengi kakhulu!+
Kakho ongaqathaniswa lawe.+
Awuzange ucele iminikelo yokutshiswa leminikelo yesono.+
7 Ngasengisithi: “Khangela, sengibuyile.
Kubhaliwe ngami encwadinimgoqwa.+
8 Ngiyakuthanda* ukwenza intando yakho+ Nkulunkulu wami,
Umthetho wakho ungaphakathi enhliziyweni yami.+
9 Ngimemezela izindaba ezinhle zokulunga ebandleni elikhulu.+
Angiwuvali umlomo wami,+
Njengoba usazi Jehova.
10 Angikuvaleli enhliziyweni yami ukulunga kwakho.
Ngiyakhuluma ngokuthembeka kwakho langokusindisa kwakho.
Angikufihli ebandleni elikhulu ukuthi uleqiniso lothando oluqotho.”+
11 Woba lesihawu kimi, awu Jehova.
Kwangathi iqiniso lakho lothando lwakho oluqotho kungahlala kungivikela.+
12 Inhlupho ezingehleleyo zinengi kakhulu okokuthi ngeke ngizibale.+
Lezono zami ezinengi zenza ngikhathazeke kakhulu okokuthi angisayiboni lendlela.+
Zinengi ukwedlula inwele ezisekhanda lami,
Sengiphelelwe lithemba.
13 Awu Jehova, ngicela ube lomusa kimi ungisindise.+
Ngicela uphangise uzongisiza, awu Jehova.+
14 Kwangathi bonke abafuna ukungibulala
Bangayangeka babe lenhloni.
Kwangathi labo abathokozayo nxa ngisehlelwa yibunzima
Bangabuyela emuva beyangekile.
15 Kwangathi labo abathi kimi: “Ukhawulile! Ukhawulile!”
Bangethuka ngenxa yokuyangiswa kwabo.
Labo abathanda indlela osindisa ngayo kabahlale besithi:
“Kakhazinyuliswe uJehova.”+
17 Kodwa mina angilamandla njalo ngingumyanga,
Kwangathi uJehova angangilalela.
