AmaHubo 132 (BEN)

1Oh Thixo, khumbula uDavida

ngezinhlupheko zonke azibhenselayo.

2Wafunga isifungo kuThixo

wenza isithembiso kuMninimandla kaJakhobe:

3“Angizukungena endlini yami

loba ngiye embhedeni wami,

4angiyikuwavumela amehlo ami ubuthongo,

akukuba lakuwozela enkopheni zami,

5ngize ngifumane indawo kaThixo,

indawo yokuhlala uMninimandla kaJakhobe.”

6Sakuzwa lokhu e-Efrathi,

sakubona emangweni waseJayari:

7“Kasiye lapho ahlala khona;

kasikhonze phansi kwesihlalo sakhe.

8Phakama, Oh Thixo, ubuye endaweni yakho yokuphumula,

wena umtshokotsho wesivumelwano elitshengisa amandla akho.

9Sengathi abaphristi bakho bangembeswa ngokulunga;

sengathi labathembekileyo bakho bangahlabelela ngentokozo.”

10Ngenxa yenceku yakho uDavida,

ungamfulatheli ogcotshiweyo wakho.

11 UThixo wenza isifungo kuDavida,

isifungo esiqinileyo angakusaphula wathi:

“Omunye wezizukulwane zakho

ngizambeka esihlalweni sakho sobukhosi

12aluba amadodana akho egcina isivumelwano sami

lezimiso engibafundisa zona,

lapho-ke amadodana abo azahlala esihlalweni sakho

sobukhosi kuze kube nini lanini.”

13Ngoba uThixo uyikhethile iZiyoni,

uyithandile ukuba yindawo yakhe yokuhlala:

14“Le yindawo yami yokuphumula lanini;

lapha ngizahlala ngisebukhosini, ngoba ngiyithandile

15ngizayibusisa ngokudla okunengi;

abayanga bayo ngizabasuthisa ngokudla.

16Ngizavunulisa abaphristi bayo ngensindiso,

labathembekileyo bakhe bazahlabelela ngentokozo nini lanini.

17Lapha ngizakhulisa uphondo lukaDavida

ngilungisele ogcotshiweyo wami isibane.

18Ngizakwembathisa izitha ngehlazo,

kodwa umqhele osekhanda lakhe uzakhazimula.”
