Tihlabelelo 17:1-15
Umthantazo waDavide.
17 Awu Jehova, ngilalele nangicela kutsi ungentele umusa;Naka kukhalela kwami lusito;Lalela umthantazo wami lengiwusho ngebucotfo.+
2 Shengatsi ungangehlulela ngekulunga;+Shengatsi emehlo akho angabona lokuhle.
3 Wena uhlolisise inhlitiyo yami, wangibukisisa ebusuku;+Ungicwengile;+Futsi utawutfola kutsi angikaze ngakhe emacebo lamabi,Nekutsi umlomo wami awukoni.
4 Nome ngabe bantfu bentani,Mine ngiyatibalekela tindlela tetigebengu ngenca yemavi akho.+
5 Tinyawo tami atichubeke tihamba etindleleni takhoKuze tingasheleli.+
6 Awu Nkulunkulu, ngibita wena ngobe ngiyati kutsi utangiphendvula.+
Sondzeta indlebe yakho kimi,* ulalele emavi ami.+
7 Bentele umusa* ngendlela lemangalisako,+Wena unguMsindzisi walabo labakhosela esandleni sakho sangesekudlaNabatsi babalekela bantfu labakuvukelako.
8 Ngivikele njengenhlavu yeliso lakho;+Ungifihle ngephansi kwemaphiko akho.+
9 Ngivikele kulababi labangihlaselako,Ungivikele etitseni tami letingitungeletile futsi letifuna kungibulala.+
10 Atisenanhlitiyo;*Tiyatigabatisa ngemilomo yato;
11 Nyalo setiyasivimbetela;+Tifuna litfuba lekusiwisa.*
12 Lomubi ufanana nelibhubesi lelifuna kudzabudzabula inyamatane ibe ticucu,Ufanana nelibhubesi lelisakhula lelibhace endzaweni lesitsekile.
13 Awu Jehova, phakama umelane naye+ futsi umlahle phansi;Ngisindzise kulomubi ngenkemba yakho;
14 Awu Jehova, ngikhulule ngesandla sakhoKubantfu balapha eveni, labanake kuphila kwanyalo,+Labo lobenetisa ngetintfo letinhle lobanikete tona+Futsi labashiyela emadvodzana abo lamanyenti lifa.
15 Kodvwa mine ngenta lokulungile, futsi ngenca yaloko utangentela umusa;Ngitawenetiseka nangivuka futsi ngikubona.*+
