Kumnqophisi. IMaskili.* Irhubo lakaDavida, lokha uDowegi umEdomu nakayokutjela uSawula bona uDavida uye endlini ka-Arhimeleki. 52  Kubayini uzikhakhazisa ngezenzo zakho ezimbi, wena ngorho?+ Ithando lakaZimu elithembekileko lihlala ilanga loke.+   Ilimu lakho libukhali njengotjhefana,+Liluka amano alimazako, liyakhohlisa.+   Uthanda okumbi ukudlula okulungileko,Uthanda ukukhuluma amala kunokukhuluma iqiniso. (Sela)   Uthanda woke amezwi alimazako,Wena limu elikhohlisako!   Kungebangelo uZimu azokugiriza aqede ngawe;+Uzokuhlwitha akuse kude netende lakho;+Uzokusiphula enarheni yabaphilako.+ (Sela)   Abalungileko bazokubona lokho basabe,+Begodu bazokuhleka bathi:+   “Nangu umuntu ongakhenge enze uZimu isiphephelo sakhe,+Kodwana othembele ebunjingeni bakhe obukhulu+ Begodu wathemba amanwakhe amambi.”   Kodwana mina ngizokuba njengomuthi we-oliva othelako endlini kaZimu;Ithemba lami lisethandweni lakaZimu,*+ ngokungapheliko.   Ngizokudumisa ngokungapheliko ngebanga lezinto ozenzileko;+Phambi kwabathembekileko bakho,Ngizokuthembela egameni lakho+ ngombana lihle.
