1 Dumisa uThixo, Oh mphefumulo wami;

konke okuphakathi kwami,

kakudumise ibizo lakhe elingcwele.

2 Dumisa uThixo, Oh mphefumulo wami,

ungaze wakhohlwa konke okuhle okuthola kuye

3 othethelelayo zonke izono zakho

akusilise kuzozonke izifo zakho,

4 ohlenga impilo yakho egodini

akwethese uthando lesihawu,

5 osuthisa izifiso zakho ngezinto ezinhle

ukuze ubutsha bakho buvuselelwe njengengqungqulu.

6 UThixo ubenzela ukulunga

lokwahlulela okuhle labo abancindezelweyo.

7 Izindlela zakhe wazazisa uMosi,

izenzo zakhe wazazisa abantu bako-Israyeli;

8 uThixo ulesihawu njalo ulomusa,

uyaphuza ukuthukuthela, kodwa uyanda ngothando.

9 Kahlali ebeka imilandu

futhi kagcini ulaka lwakhe kokuphela;

10 kasiphathi ngokufanele izono zethu

kumbe asijezise ngokulingene iziphambeko zethu.

11 Ngoba njengokuphakama komkhathi ngaphezu komhlaba,

lukhulu kangako uthando lwakhe kulabo abamesabayo;

12 njengobukhatshana bempumalanga kuyo intshonalanga

kanjalo ususile iziphambeko zethu kithi.

13 Ngendlela ubaba elozwelo ebantwaneni bakhe,

kanjalo uThixo ulozwelo kulabo abamesabayo;

14 ngoba uyakwazi ukuthi sibunjwe njani,

uyakhumbula ukuthi siluthuli.

15 Umuntu yena insuku zakhe zinjengotshani,

ukhula amemetheke njengembali yeganga;

16 umoya uyayiphephetha ihle inyamalale,

indawo yakhe ingabe isayikhumbula lanini.

17 Kodwa kusukela phakade kusiya phakade

uthando lukaThixo lukulabo abamesabayo,

lokulunga Kwakhe ebantwaneni babantwana

18 kulabo abagcina isivumelwano Sakhe

njalo bakhumbule ukulalela izimiso zakhe.

19 UThixo usemisile isihlalo sakhe sobukhosi ezulwini,

njalo ubukhosi bakhe buphezu kwakho konke.

20 Dumisani uThixo, lina zingilosi,

lina zinceku zakhe elenza intando yakhe,

elilalela ilizwi lakhe.

21 Dumisani uThixo, lonke mabutho akhe asezulwini,

lina zinceku zakhe elenza intando yakhe.

22 Dumisani uThixo, imisebenzi yakhe yonke

ezindaweni zonke embusweni wakhe.

Dumisa uThixo, Oh mphefumulo wami.
