| 1. | Yabona, ndiya kuthuma umthunywa wam, agece indlela phambi kwam. Iya kuza ke ngesiquphe etempileni yayo iNkosi leyo niyifunayo; kwaumthunywa womnqophiso enimlangazelelayo, yabona, uyeza; utsho uYehova wemikhosi. |
| 2. | Ngubani na ke onokuyinyamezela imini yakuza kwakhe? Ngubani na ke onokuma ekubonakaleni kwakhe? Ngokuba unjengomlilo womnyibilikisi, unjengesoda yabaxovuli beengubo. |
| 3. | Uya kuhlala ke engumnyibilikisi, engumcoci wesilivere, abacoce oonyana bakaLevi, abahluze njengegolide, nanjengesilivere; babe ngabazisa umnikelo kaYehova benobulungisa. |
| 4. | Woba mnandi ke kuYehova umnikelo wakwaYuda nowaseYerusalem, ngokweemini zasephakadeni, ngokweminyaka yamandulo. |
| 5. | Ndiya kusondela kuni ukuba ndigwebe, ndibe lingqina elikhawulezayo kubakhafuli, nakubakrexezi, nakubafungi bobuxoki; nakwabacudisa umqeshwa ekumvuzeni, nomhlolokazi, nenkedama; nakwabathoba owasemzini, bangandoyiki mna; utsho uYehova wemikhosi. |
| 6. | Ngokuba mna, Yehova, andiguquguquki; ukuze ningagqitywa nje niphele, nina nyana bakaYakobi. |
| 7. | Kususela kwimihla yoyihlo, nimkile emimiselweni yam, anayigcina. Buyelani kum, ndibuyele kuni; utsho uYehova wemikhosi. Nithi ke, Sibuye ngokuthini na? |
| 8. | Umntu angamqhatha na uThixo, ukuba nindiqhathe nje? Nithi ke, Sitheni na ukukuqhatha? Kwizishumi nemirhumo. |

| 10. | Ziziseni zonke izishumi endlwini yobuncwane bam, ize ke kubekho ukudla endlwini yam; ngoku nindicikide ngale nto, utsho uYehova wemikhosi, ukuba andisayi kunivulela na iingcango zezulu, ndinithululele iintsikelelo, kude kungasweleki lutho. |
| 11. | Ndoyikhalimela inkumbi edlayo ngenxa yenu, ingazonakalisi iziqhamo zomhlaba wenu, ungaphunzi umdiliya wenu entsimini; utsho uYehova wemikhosi. |
| 12. | Zonke iintlanga ziya kuthi ninoyolo, ngokuba niya kuba lilizwe elinanziweyo; utsho uYehova wemikhosi. |
| 13. | Amazwi enu andigixile, utsho uYehova. Nithi ke, Sithethe ntoni na ngawe? |
| 14. | Nithi, Akunto yanto ukumkhonza uThixo; sizuze ntoni na ngakuba sigcine isigxina sakhe, sahamba ngezimnyama zokuzila ngenxa kaYehova wemikhosi? |
| 15. | Kaloku ke sithi banoyolo abakhukhumeleyo; abaneli kwakheka abenzi bokungendawo; basuka bamcikide uThixo, basinde. |
| 16. | Ke kaloku abamoyikayo uYehova bathetha elowo nowabo; uYehova wazibaza iindlebe, weva; incwadi yokukhumbuza phambi kwakhe yabhalelwa abamoyikayo uYehova, abacinga ngegama akhe. |
| 17. | Uthi ke uYehova wemikhosi, Baya kuba yinqobo kum ngemini endenza oku, ndibaconge, njengomntu oconga unyana wakhe omkhonzayo. |
| 18. | Nobuya ke niwubone umahluko phakathi kwelungisa nongendawo, phakathi komkhonzayo uThixo nongamkhonziyo. |
