1 Sebengihluphe kakhulu kusukela ebutsheni bami

katsho njalo u-Israyeli,

2 sebengihluphe kakhulu kusukela ebutsheni bami,

kodwa kabangehlulanga.

3 Abalimi bawulimile umhlane wami

benza imifolo emide.

4 Kodwa uThixo ulungile;

ungikhulule ezintanjeni zababi.

5 Akuthi bonke abayizondayo iZiyoni

babuyiselwe emuva beyangekile.

6 Sengathi bangaba njengotshani obukhula ephahleni

obubuna bungakakhuli;

7 umvuni angeke agcwalisa isandla sakhe ngabo,

loba lowo obuthayo agcwalise izingalo zakhe.

8 Sengathi labo abadlulayo bangabokuthi,

"Izibusiso zikaThixo mazibe kuwe;

siyakubusisa ngegama likaThixo."
