| 1. | Yabonani, isandla sikaYehova asisifutshane, ukuba singasindisi; nendlebe yakhe ayinzima, ukuba ingevi. |
| 2. | Bubugwenxa benu obunahlukanisileyo noThixo wenu, zizono zenu ezibusithelisileyo ubuso bakhe kuni, ukuba angevi. |
| 3. | Kuba izandla zenu zidyobhekile ligazi, neminwe yenu bubugwenxa; nomlomo wenu uthetha ubuxoki, ulwimi lwenu ludumzela ubugqwetha. |
| 4. | Akukho uvakalisa ilizwi elinobulungisa, akukho umangalelana nomnye enyanisile; bakholose ngochuku, bathethe inkohlakalo; bakhawula ububi, bazale ubutshinga. |
| 5. | Baqandusela amaqanda erhamba, baluka izindlu zesigcawu. Lowo udla amaqanda abo uya kufa; elinyathelweyo liqandulelwa inyushu. |
| 6. | Imisonto yabo ayiyi kuba yingubo, nemisebenzi yabo ayiyi kubagubungela. Izenzo zabo zizenzo zobutshinga; ukusebenza ngogonyamelo kusezandleni zabo. |
| 7. | Iinyawo zabo zigidimela ebubini, zikhawuleze ukuya kuphalaza igazi elimsulwa; iingcinga zabo ziingcinga zobutshinga; emendweni wabo kukubhuqa nokwaphula. |
| 8. | Abayazi indlela yoxolo, okusesikweni akukho emikhondweni yabo; bazijikajikile iindlela zabo; bonke abanyathela kuzo abalwazi uxolo. |
| 9. | Ngenxa yoko kukude kuthi okusesikweni, nobulungisa abufikeleli kuthi. Sithembe ukukhanya, nanku ke kumnyama; sithembe ukuba kube mhlophe, sihamba esithokothokweni. |
| 10. | Siya phuthaphutha njengeemfama eludongeni; siyaphuthaphutha njengabangenamehlo; sikhubeka emini enkulu ngathi kungongcwalazi; phakathi kwabaxhamla ubomi, ngathi thina singabafileyo. |
| 11. | Siyavungama njengebhere sonke siphela; sidumzela sidumzele njengamavukuthu; sithemba okusesikweni, kungabikho; sithemba usindiso, lube kude kuthi. |
| 12. | Kuba zininzi izikreqo zethu phambi kwakho, nezono zethu ziyangqina ngathi; kuba izikreqo zethu zinathi, nobugwenxa bethu siyabazi: |
| 13. | ukukreqa kuYehova, nokumkhanyela, nokubuya umva kuThixo wethu, ukuthetha okucudisayo, okutyekisayo, ukukhawula nokuphimisela ngentliziyo amazwi obuxoki. |
| 14. | Okusesikweni kubuyiswe umva, nobulungisa bumi kude; ngokuba inyaniso ikhubekile endaweni yembutho, akunakungena okuthe gca. |
| 15. | Yesuka yasweleka inyaniso, nocezayo ebubini wazibhunyulisa. Wabona ke uYehova, kwakubi emehlweni akhe, ukuba kungekho okusesikweni. |
| 16. | Wabona ukuba akukho mntu, wamangaliswa ukuba kungekho mthandazeli; yaza yamsindisela ingalo yakhe, nobulungisa bakhe bona bamxhasa. |
| 17. | Wanxiba ubulungisa ngokwengubo yentsimbi, wanxiba isigcina-ntloko sosindiso entloko; ukwambatha wambatha iingubo zempindezelo, wazithi wambu ngekhwele, kwanga kungengubo yokwaleka. |
| 18. | Ngokwempatho yabo leyo uya kubuyekeza ngokoko, ubushushu kubabandezeli bakhe, kwaimpatho yabo kwabaziintshaba zakhe; kwiziqithi uya kubuyekeza kwaimpatho yazo. |
| 19. | Baya kuloyika igama likaYehova entshonalanga, baboyike ubuqaqawuli bakhe empumalanga; kuba uya kuza njengomlambo oxineneyo, obalekiswa ngumoya kaYehova; |
| 20. | eze engumkhululi weZiyon, wababuyayo elukreqweni kwaYakobi; utsho uYehova. |
| 21. | Mna ke nguwo lo umnqophiso wam nabo, utsho uYehova; uMoya wam ophezu kwakho, nelizwi lam endilibeke emlonyeni wakho, aliyi kusuka emlonyeni wakho, nasemlonyeni wembewu yakho, nasemlonyeni wembewu yembewu yakho, utsho uYehova, kuthabathele kweli xesha kude kuse ephakadeni. |
