AmaHubo 52

Kumqondisi wokuhlabela. Ihubo likaDavida. Lapho uDoyegi umʼEdomi wayeye kuSawuli wamtshela wathi, “UDavida uye wayangena endlini ka-Ahimeleki.”

1Kungani uncoma ngobubi, wena somandlase?

Kungani utshona untela ilanga lonke,

wena olihlazo emehlweni kaNkulunkulu?

2Ulimi lwakho luceba incithakalo;

lunjengensingo eloliweyo,

wena owenza inkohliso.

3Uthanda ububi kulobuhle,

amanga kulokukhuluma iqiniso.

4Uyawathanda wonke amanga alimazayo,

wena limi olukhohlisayo!

5Ngeqiniso uNkulunkulu uzakwehlisela ukubhubha okungapheliyo:

Uzakuhlwitha akukhuphe ethenteni lakho;

uzakuquphula akususe elizweni labaphilayo.

6Abalungileyo bazabona besabe;

bazamhleka bathi,

7“Nangu-ke manje umuntu

lo ongenzanga uNkulunkulu inqaba yakhe

kodwa wathemba inotho yakhe enkulu

wakhula waba lamandla ngokuwisa abanye!”

8Kodwa mina nginjengesihlahla se-oliva

esikhula endlini kaNkulunkulu;

ngithembe uthando lukaNkulunkulu

olungaphuthiyo nini lanini.

9Ngizakudumisa lanini ngalokho okwenzileyo;

ngizathemba ebizweni lakho,

ngoba lihle ibizo lakho.

Ngizakudumisa phambi kwabangcwele bakho.
