IHubo
Kumqondisi wokuhlabela. Ihubo likaDavida inceku kaJehova. Walihlabelela uJehova ngemva kokukhululwa kwakhe nguJehova ezitheni zakhe zonke lasesandleni sikaSawuli. Wathi:+
18 Awu Jehova, mandla ami,+ ngiyakuthanda kakhulu.
2 UJehova ulidwala lami lenqaba yami, nguye ongikhululayo.+
UNkulunkulu wami ulidwala lami,+ nguye engizacatsha kuye.
Ulihawu lami lophondo* lwami lwensindiso,* indawo yami yokucatsha evikelekileyo.*+
3 Ngibiza uJehova onguye ofanele ukudunyiswa,
Ngizakhululwa ezitheni zami.+
5 Intambo zengcwaba zangithandela,
Ukufa kwafaka imijibila phambi kwami.+
6 Ngathi ngikhathazekile ngabiza uJehova,
Ngaqhubeka ngikhala kuNkulunkulu ngicela ukuthi angincede.
7 Umhlaba waqala ukuzamazama lokunyikinyeka,+
Izisekelo zezintaba zagedezela,
Zanyikinyeka ngenxa yokuthukuthela kwakhe.+
8 Kwathunqa intuthu emakhaleni akhe,
Kwaphuma umlilo ovuthayo emlonyeni wakhe,+
Kwakhihlika lamalahle avuthayo kuye.
11 Wazembesa ngobumnyama.+
Amayezi ezulu amnyama+
Amembesa angathi litende.
12 Ekukhanyeni okwakuphambi kwakhe
Kwakulesiqhotho lamalahle avuthayo okwehla kuvela emayezini.
13 UJehova wasekhwaza esemazulwini,+
OPhezukonke wakhuluma ilizwi lakhe lazwakala,+
Kwehla isiqhotho lamalahle avuthayo.
15 Awu Jehova, wakhwaza izisekelo zomhlaba zavela egcekeni,+
Kwabonakala itshebetshebe engaphansi kolwandle,
Ngenxa yomoya olamandla ophuma emakhaleni akho.+
16 Wangilalamela ekhonale phezulu,
Wangibamba wangikhipha emanzini atshonayo.+
18 Bangihlasela mhla ngisebunzimeni,+
Kodwa uJehova wayelami.
21 Ngizilandele izindlela zikaJehova,
Njalo angizange ngimtshiye uNkulunkulu wami ngenze okubi.
22 Ngihlala ngizikhumbula izahlulelo zakhe,
Angisoze ngidelele imilayo yakhe.
24 Kwangathi uJehova anganginika umvuzo ohambelana lokulunga kwami+
Kanye lobumsulwa bami phambi kwakhe.+
28 Awu Jehova, nguwe olumathisa isibane sami,
UNkulunkulu wami uyangikhanyisela emnyameni.+
29 Nxa ngincediswa nguwe ngingalwa lamabutho ahlaselayo,+
Ngamandla engiwaphiwa nguNkulunkulu ngingakhwela umduli.+
Ulihawu labo bonke abaphephela kuye.+
31 Ngubani omunye uNkulunkulu ngaphandle kukaJehova?+
Ngubani olidwala ngaphandle kukaNkulunkulu wethu?+
Ukuthobeka kwakho kwenza ngibe mkhulu.+
36 Indlela yami uyayiqhelisa,
Inyawo zami azisoze zitshelele.+
37 Izitha zami ngizazixotshanisa ngize ngizifice,
Angisoze ngiphenduke ngingaziqedanga zonke.
38 Zizawela phansi ngizinyathele,
Ngizichoboze zingaphindi zivuke.+
39 Uzanginika amandla okulwa empini,
Wenze izitha zami ziwe phambi kwami.+
41 Bakhalela uncedo kodwa akulamuntu obasizayo,
Baze bakhale lakuJehova kodwa kabaphenduli.
42 Ngizabachola babe njengothuli oluphetshulwa ngumoya,
Ngibalahlele phandle angathi ngumuntu olahla udaka emigwaqweni.
43 Wena uzangikhulula ebantwini abangibeka icala.+
Uzangenza ngibe ngumkhokheli wezizwe.+
Abantu engingabaziyo bazangisebenzela.+
44 Bazakuthi besizwa ngami bahle bangilalele,
Abezinye izizwe bazabuya kimi betshotshobele.+
45 Abezinye izizwe bazakwesaba,
Baphume ezinqabeni zabo babuye kimi beqhaqhazela.
46 UJehova uyaphila! Kalidunyiswe iDwala lami!+
Kaphakanyiswe uNkulunkulu ongisindisayo.+
47 UNkulunkulu weqiniso uyangiphindiselela,+
Unqoba izizwe azibeke ngaphansi kwami.
48 Uyangikhulula ezitheni zami ezizondileyo.
Wena uyangiphakamisa ngibe phezu kwalabo abangihlaselayo,+
Ungisindise emuntwini olodlakela.
