AmaHubo 141

Ihubo likaDavida

1Oh Thixo, ngiyakubiza; woza masinyane kimi.

Zwana ilizwi lami nxa ngikubiza.

2Sengathi umkhuleko wami ungema phambi kwakho njengempepha;

kuthi ukuphakama kwezandla zami kube njengomhlatshelo wakusihlwa.

3Ngibekela umlindi womlomo wami, Oh Thixo,

qaphela umnyango wezindebe zami.

4Ungayekeli inhliziyo yami ihugwe ngokubi,

ngingene ezenzweni ezimbi

labantu abayizigangi;

mangingadli izibiliboco zabo.

5Ake ngitshaywe ngumuntu olungileyo, kungumusa;

kake angikhuze, kungamafutha ekhanda lami.

Ikhanda lami kaliyikukwala.

Ikanti umkhuleko wami uhlezi umelana lezenzo zezigangi.

6Ababusi bazo bazaphoselwa phansi emaweni,

lababi bazafunda ukuthi amazwi ami ayekhulunywe kuhle.

7Bazakuthi, “Njengalowo olimayo eqeqebula umhlabathi,

kanjalo amathambo ethu achithiziwe emlonyeni weliba.”

8Kodwa amehlo ami agxile kuwe, Oh Thixo woBukhosi;

kuwe ngiyaphephela unganginikeli ekufeni.

9Ngivikela emijibileni asebeyithiyele mina,

ezifini ezithiywe yizigangi.

10Akuthi ababi bawele emambuleni abo,

mina ngidlule kuhle ngiphephile.
