Isahluko 10
1
Jehova, umeleni kude na? Uzifihlelani ubuso ezikhathini zokuhlupheka na?
2
Ngokuqhosha komubi ompofu uyahlupheka; mababanjwe ngamacebo abawacebileyo.
3
Ngokuba omubi uyazigabisa ngokufisa komphefumulo wakhe, nohulazayo uyamvalelisa, amdelele uJehova.
4
Omubi ngokuzikhukhumeza kobuso bakhe uthi: “Akanaki lutho; akakho uNkulunkulu,” injalo imicabango yakhe yonke.
5
Izindlela zakhe zithembekile izikhathi zonke; izahlulelo zakho ziphakeme kakhulu kunokubona kwakhe; zonke izitha zakhe uyazidelela.
6
Uthi enhliziyweni yakhe: “Angiyikuzanyazanyiswa; izizukulwane nezizukulwane angisoze ngehlelwa ngozi.”
7
Umlomo wakhe ugcwele isiqalekiso nenkohliso nobudlova; ngaphansi kolimi lwakhe kukhona ukwelelesa nokonakala.
8
Uhlezi ezindaweni zokuqamekela zemizi; ezindaweni ezisithekileyo uyambulala ongenacala; amehlo akhe ayamhlwaya othithibeleyo.
9
Endaweni esithekileyo uqamekela njengengonyama emphandwini wayo; uhlomele ukumbamba ohluphekileyo; uyambamba ohluphekileyo ngokumngenisa esihibeni sakhe.
10
Uyanyonyoba, uyakhothama, abathithibeleyo bawe ngamazipho akhe.
11
Uthi enhliziyweni yakhe: “UNkulunkulu ukhohliwe, ubusithezile ubuso bakhe; akasoze wakubona nanini.”
12
Vuka, Jehova! Nkulunkulu, phakamisa isandla sakho, ungakhohlwa abahluphekileyo.
13
Kungani ukuba omubi adelele uNkulunkulu, athi enhliziyweni yakhe: “Awuyikukunaka,” na?
14
Ubonile wena; ngokuba ukukhathazeka nokuhlupheka uyakubona wena ukuze ukubeke esandleni sakho; othithibeleyo uyazinikela kuwe; wena ungumsizi wentandane.
15
Yaphula ingalo yomubi; buphenyisise ububi besoni, ukuze ungabe usabufumana.
16
UJehova uyinkosi kuze kube phakade naphakade; abezizwe bayachithwa emhlabeni wakhe.
17
Jehova, uyakuzwa ukulangazela kwabamnene; uyaqinisa inhliziyo yabo, indlebe yakho uyibeka kubo
18
ukuba wahlulele intandane nocindezelweyo, ukuze umuntu wasemhlabeni angabe esabanga uvalo.
