uBaba wami, uMelusi wami
Ihubo likaDavide.
UDavide umalusi ubhala ngokunakekelwa nguBaba: ondliwa, aphuziswe, abuyiselwe lapho umphefumulo wakhe uphela amandla, ahambe esigodini sethunzi elijulile engesabi, abese ehlaliswa etafuleni elibekwe phambi kwezitha zakhe. Ubuhle abumlandeli nje kuphela — buyamxosha.
23 1uBaba wami ungumelusi wami; angisweli lutho. 2Emadlelweni aluhlaza uyangilalisa; ungiholela ngasemanzini apholile. 3Ubuyisa umphefumulo wami; ungihola ezindleleni zokulunga ngenxa yegama lakhe. 4Noma ngihamba esigodini sethunzi lokufa, angiyikwesaba okubi, ngokuba wena unami; intonga yakho nodondolo lwakho kuyangiduduza. 5Uyangilungiselela itafula phambi kwami phambi kwezitha zami; ugcoba ikhanda lami ngamafutha; indebe yami iyachichima. 6Ngempela ubuhle nothando olungapheli kuyakungilandela zonke izinsuku zokuphila kwami, futhi ngiyakuhlala endlini kaBaba wami kuze kube phakade.
