Tipisalema
Yehovha Xikwembu xanga u nkulu ngopfu.+
U ambale xindzhuti ni ku vangama.+
3 U veka timhandzi ta makamara yakwe ya le henhla ematini lama nga exibakabakeni,+
A endla mapapa* ma va kalichi yakwe,+
Yi famba ehenhla ka timpapa ta moya.+
6 U yi funengete hi xidziva xa mati ku fana ni nguvu.+
Mati a ma funengete tintshava.
7 Ma balekile loko u ma tshinya;+
Ma chuhile ma tsutsuma loko ma twa mpfumawulo wa ku dzindza ka wena
8 Tintshava ti tlhandlukile+ ivi mikova yi rhelela
Yi ya endhawini leyi u yi endleleke yona.
9 U veke ndzilakana lowu ma nga fanelangiki ma wu hundza,+
Leswaku ma nga ha pfuki ma funengete misava.
10 U rhuma swihlovo emikoveni;
Swi khuluka exikarhi ka tintshava.
11 Swiharhi hinkwaswo swi nwa kona mati;
Timbhongolo ta nhova ti timula kona torha.
12 Ehenhla ka swona ku tshama swinyenyana;
Swi yimbelela exikarhi ka nhova yo tlhuma.
13 U cheleta tintshava a ri emakamareni yakwe ya le henhla.+
Misava ya eneriseka hi mihandzu ya mitirho ya wena.+
14 U mirisela tihomu byanyi
Kasi vanhu u va mirisela swimilana,+
Leswaku swi humesa swakudya etikweni
15 Ni vhinyo leyi tsakisaka mbilu ya munhu,+
Mafurha lama hatimisaka xikandza,
16 Mirhi ya Yehovha yi cheletiwa kahle,
Mikedari leyi a yi byaleke eLebanoni,
17 Laha swinyenyana swi akaka kona swisaka.
Ntavila*+ yi tshama ehenhla ka mirhi ya yunipa.
19 U endle n’weti leswaku wu hambanisa tinguva;
Dyambu ri swi tiva kahle leswaku ri fanele ri pela rini.+
21 Swinghalana swa bonga loko swi ri karhi swi hlota+
Ni ku lava swakudya swa swona leswi humaka eka Xikwembu.+
22 Loko dyambu ri xa,
Swa tlhela swi ya etlela etindhawini ta swona.
23 Munhu u ya entirhweni,
A tirha ku fikela nimadyambu.
24 Mitirho ya wena yi tele swinene Yehovha Xikwembu xanga!+
Hinkwayo ka yona u yi endle hi vutlhari.+
Misava yi tele hi swilo leswi u swi endleke.
25 Lwandle i rikulu swinene ri tlhela ri anama,
Ri ni swilo swo tala ngopfu leswi hanyaka, leswitsongo ni leswikulu.+
28 Swi hlengeleta leswi u swi nyikaka swona.+
Loko u pfula voko ra wena, swi kuma swilo swo tala leswinene.+
29 Loko u swi fularhela, swa karhateka.
Loko u susa moya lowu swi wu hefemulaka, swa fa swi tlhelela entshurini.+
31 Ku vangama ka Yehovha ku ta tshama hilaha ku nga heriki.
Yehovha u ta tsakela mitirho yakwe.+
33 Ndzi ta yimbelelela Yehovha+ vutomi bya mina hinkwabyo;
Ndzi ta yimbelelela Xikwembu xanga tinsimu ndzi xi dzunisa loko ntsena ndza ha hanya.+
34 Leswi ndzi swi anakanyaka a swi n’wi tsakise.*
Ndzi ta tsaka eka Yehovha.
Ndzi ta dzunisa Yehovha. Dzunisani Yehovha!*
