Tihlabelelo
Sicondziso lesiya kumcondzisi: Kufanele ihlatjelwe ngendlela yeJeduthuni.* Ingoma ya-Asafa.+
77 Ngitawumemeta ngikhale kuNkulunkulu;
Ngitawukhala kuye futsi yena utangiva.+
2 Nangicindzetelekile, lusito ngilufuna kuJehova.+
Ebusuku ngiphakamisa tandla tami, ngithantaze ngingayekeli.
Kodvwa solo angidvudvuteki.
3 Nangikhumbula imisebenti yaNkulunkulu ngibese ngilangatelela umusa wakhe.+
Ngikhatsatekile futsi sengiphelelwa ngemandla.+ (Sela)
4 Wena wenta kutsi emehlo ami angavaleki;
Ngicindzetelekile futsi angisakhoni nekukhuluma.
5 Ngicabanga ngalokwenteka kadzeni,+
Ngicabange ngeminyaka leseyengca.
7 Jehova utasilahla siphelane yini?+
Angeke yini aphindze asentele umusa?+
8 Lutsandvo lwakhe lolucotfo seluphele siphelane yini?
Kute yini titukulwane letitawubona kugcwaliseka kwesetsembiso sakhe?
9 Nkulunkulu sewukhohliwe yini kusentela umusa,+
Nobe intfukutselo yakhe yente kutsi umusa wakhe uphele? (Sela)
10 Ngihlale ngitsi: “Nguloku lokungikhatsatako:+
Losetikwako Konkhe sewuyekele kusisita.”
11 Ngitayikhumbula imisebenti yaJehova;
Ngitatikhumbula tento takho letinhle lowatenta kadzeni.
12 Ngitawucabangisisa ngayo yonkhe imisebenti yakho,
Ngicabangisise nangalokwentile.+
13 Awu Nkulunkulu, tindlela takho tingcwele.
Ukhona yini nkulunkulu lomkhulu njengawe?+
14 Wena unguNkulunkulu weliciniso, futsi wenta tintfo letinhle.+
Wente kutsi bantfu bawabone emandla akho.+
15 Ukhulule bantfu bakho ngemandla akho,+
Lokungemadvodzana aJakobe newaJosefa. (Sela)
16 Awu Nkulunkulu, emanti akubonile;
Akubonile futsi akhatsateka.+
Nemanti lashonako atfukutsele.
17 Emafu atfulula imvula.
Ladvuma esibhakabhakeni lesimbonywe ngemafu,
Imibane yakho lefana nemicibisholo yamanyata yonkhe indzawo.+
18 Nalidvuma+ bekuba nemsindvo lonjengewemasondvo enkalishi;
Imibane yakhanyisa umhlaba;+
Umhlaba wazizitela futsi watamatama.+
19 Indlela lohamba kuyo beyidzabula elwandle,+
Idzabula emantini lamanyenti;
Kodvwa kute lobekabona lapho uhambe khona.
