INgoma Yezingoma 4:1-16
4 “Ayisibuhle bakho sthandwa sami.
Umuhle sthandwa sami.
Amehlo akho anjengawamajuba phakathi kweveyili yakho.
Inwele zakho zinjengomhlambi wembuziUsehla entabeni zeGiliyadi.+
2 Amazinyo akho anjengomhlambi wezimvu osanda kugelwa uboya,Izimvu ezisanda kugeziswa,Zonke izimvu zakhona zizele amaphahlaKayikho leyodwa elahlekelwe lizinyane layo.
3 Indebe zakho zinjengohali olubomvu,Amazwi akho amnandi.
Njengocezu lweharinathi,Zinjalo izihlathi* zakho phakathi kweveyili yakho.
4 Intamo yakho+ injengenqaba kaDavida+Eyakhiwe ngamatshe agadaniswe kuhleOkulengiswe kuyo amahawu ayinkulungwane,Wonke amahawu ayisigombolozi athwalwa ngamadoda alamandla.+
5 Amabele akho anjengamazinyane empala amabili,Anjengamaphahla empala,+Adla endaweni elamaluba.”
6 “Ngizaqansa ngiye entabeni yemure,Laseqaqeni lwenhlaka yokwenza impepha,+Usuku lungakaqali ukubetha umoya lemithunzi ingakabaleki.”
7 “Uyisimomondiya sthandwa sami,+Akulalutho olusolekayo kuwe.
8 Asisuke eLebhanoni makoti wami sihambeAsisuke sonke eLebhanoni.+
Yehla esiqongweni se-Amana,Esiqongweni seSeniri, esiqongweni seHemoni,+Ezimbalwini zezilwane, ezintabeni zezingwe.
9 Uyithumbile inhliziyo yami+ dadewethu, makoti wami,Uthe ungithi hlasi ngamehlo, wayithumba inhliziyo yami,Ngengqongqo elilodwa nje lomgaxo wakho.
10 Uthando ongipha lona lumnandi+ dadewethu, makoti wami,
Uthando ongipha lona lewayini lisala phansi,+Amagcobo akho anukelela kamnandi ukwedlula loba yiwaphi amakha.+
11 Indebe zakho zithonta uluju+ makoti wami,
Uluju lochago kungaphansi kolimi lwakho,+Amakha asezigqokweni zakho anjengamakha eLebhanoni.
12 Udadewethu, umakoti wami, unjengengadi ekhiyiweyo,Ingadi ekhiyiweyo, umthombo ovalwe ngci!
13 Ingatsha zakho* zilipharadayisi* lamaharinathi,Zilezithelo ezimnandi kakhulu lehena lenadi,
14 Inadi,+ lesafroni, lomhlanga*+ kanye lesinamoni,+Layo yonke imihlobo yezihlahla zenhlaka yokwenza impepha, lemure lamachena,*+Kanye lawo wonke amakha+ adulayo.
15 Ungumthombo osengadini, umgodi olamanzi amahle,Unjengezifula ezigeleza zivela eLebhanoni.+
16 Awu moya wenyakatho vuka,Lawe moya weningizimu woza,
Uphephethe* engadini yami.
Akuthi iphunga layo elimnandi lisabalale.”
“Kwangathi usomoya wami angabuya engadini yakhe,Adle izithelo zayo ezimnandi.”
