1 Kuhle ukudumisa uThixo

lokuhlabelela ebizweni lakho, wena oPhezukonke,

2 ukumemezela uthando lwakho ekuseni

lokuthembeka kwakho ebusuku,

3 ukutshaya iziginci ngomhubhe wezintambo ezilitshumi

lemvungamo emnandi yechacho.

4 Ngoba uyangijabulisa ngezenzo zakho, Oh Thixo;

ngihlala ngentokozo ngomsebenzi wezandla zakho.

5 Mikhulu kangaka imisebenzi yakho, Oh Thixo,

izikile imicabango yakho!

6 Umuntu ongelangqondo akazi,

iziwula kazizwisisi,

7 ukuthi loba ababi bemila njengotshani

lezigangi zonke ziphumelela,

zizabhujiswa nini lanini.

8 Kodwa wena Thixo, uphakeme laphakade.

9 Ngoba ngempela izitha zakho, Oh Thixo,

ngempela izitha zakho zizabhubha;

zonke izigangi zizachithizwa.

10 Uluphakamisile uphondo lwami njengolwenyathi;

ngagcotshwa ngamakha amnandi.

11 Amehlo ami abonile ukwehlulwa kwezitha zami;

indlebe zami zizwile ngokuchithizwa kwezitha zami ezimbi.

12 Abalungileyo bazaqhela njengesihlahla selala,

bazakhula njengomsedari waseLebhanoni;

13 ngoba behlanyelwe endlini kaThixo,

bazaqhela emagumeni kaNkulunkulu wethu.

14 Bazabe belokhu bethela izithelo lanxa sebebadala,

bazahlala belokhu behluma beluhlaza,

15 bememezela besithi, "UThixo uqotho;

uliDwala lami, kakukho bubi kuye."
