1. Ndathi, Ndiya kuzigcina iindlela zam,Ndingoni ngolwimi lwam;Ndiya kuwugcina ngokuwubopha umlomo wam,Xa ongendawo asephambi kwam.
2. Ndaba sisidenge, ndathozama,Ndazisulungisa nakokulungileyo;Wagxobha-gxobheka umvandedwa wam.
3. Yaba nobushushu intliziyo yam phakathi kwam,Ekucamangeni kwam wavutha umlilo.Ndathetha ke ngolwimi lwam,
4. Ndathi, Ndázise, Yehova, isiphelo sam,Nomlinganiso wemihla yam, into oyiyo;Mandikwazi ukunqamka kwam, into okuyiyo.
5. Yabona, ùyenzé imihla yam yangangobubanzi besandla;Nobomi bam bunjengento engento phambi kwakho;Ngumphunga nje bonke abantu, nakuba bemi. (Phakamisani.)
6. Ùhamba-hamba umntu enjengesithunzi nje kodwa;Baxokozela ngomphunga nje kodwa;Bafumba, bengazi ukuba ngubani na oya kukuhlanganisa.
7. Ngoku ndiya kuthembela kwintoni na, Nkosi yam?Ukulinda kwam kukuwe.
8. Ndihlangule elukreqweni lwam lonke;Musa ukundimisela ingcikivo yesidenge.
9. Ndisisidenge, umlomo wam andiwuvuli,Ngokuba oko kwenziwe nguwe.
10. Sisuse kum isibetho sakho;Mna ndiyaphela kukutyundyutha kwesandla sakho.
11. Wakumthethisa umntu ngezohlwayo ngenxa yobugwenxa,Ùyasonakalisa njengenundu isoya sakhe;Bangumphunga nje kodwa bonke abantu. (Phakamisani.)
12. Yiva umthandazo wam, Yehova,Kubekele indlebe ukuzibika kwam.Musa ukuthi tu ezinyembezini zam;Ngokuba ndingumphambukeli kuwe,Undwendwe, njengoobawo bonke.
13. Bheka phaya, ungandikhangeli, khendincumeze,Ndingekemki ndingabi sabakho.
