3 Phela izindebe zesifebekazi zithonta uluju,

lenkulumo yaso iyatshelela kulamafutha;

4 kodwa ekucineni iyababa ingathi yinyongo,

ibukhali njengenkemba esika nxa zombili.

5 Inyawo zaso zehlela ekufeni;

izinyathelo zaso ziqonda nta elibeni.

6 Kasikhathali ukuthi kuphilwa njani;

izindlela zaso ziyazombeleza, kodwa kasikuboni lokho.

7 Ngalokho-ke, madodana ami, ngilalelani;

lingaphambuki kulokho engikukhulumayo.

8 Hambani ngendlela ekhatshana kwaso,

lingasondeli emnyango wendlu yaso,

9 funa unikele kwabanye amandla akho wonke

lobudala bakho kulowo olesihluku,
