88 Awu Jehova Nkulunkulu wami ongisindisayo,+Ngiyakhala emini,Lasebusuku ngiyakhala kuwe.+
2 Kwangathi umthandazo wami ungafika kuwe.+
Ngicela ungilalele* nxa ngikhala kuwe ngicela uncedo.+
3 Impilo yami igcwele inhlupho,+Sengilengela engcwabeni.+
4 Sengibalelwa phakathi kwabantu asebezakwehlela engcwabeni,+Angiselamuntu onganginceda.*+
5 Ngitshiywe phakathi kwabafileyo,Njengalabo ababuleweyo abalele engcwabeni,OngasabakhumbuliyoNjalo ongasabanakekeliyo.
6 Ungifake egodini elitshona kakhulu,Ezindaweni ezimnyama, emgodini ongelamkhawulo.
7 Ulaka lwakho luyangisinda,+Amagagasi akho alamandla ayangikhulela. (Selah)
8 Usuxotshele abangane bami khatshana lami,+Wangenza ngenyanyeka kubo.
Ngivalelwe, angenelisi lokubaleka.
9 Amehlo ami awasaboni kuhle ngenxa yokuhlupheka kwami.+
Awu Jehova, ngiyakubiza usuku lonke.+
Ngelulela izandla zami kuwe.
10 Kambe ungabenzela izimangaliso yini abafileyo?
Abafileyo bangavuka yini bakudumise?+ (Selah)
11 Kambe engcwabeni kungakhulunywa ngothando lwakho oluqotho?
Kungakhulunywa ngokuthembeka kwakho yini endaweni yokubola?*
12 Izimangaliso zakho zingaziwa yini emnyameni?
Ukulunga kwakho kungaziwa yini elizweni labangasakhunjulwayo?+
13 Kodwa ngiqhubeka ngikhala kuwe ngicela uncedo, awu Jehova.+
Nsuku zonke ekuseni umthandazo wami uyafika kuwe.+
14 Manje kungani ungilahla Jehova?+
Kungani ungifihlela ubuso bakho?+
15 Kusukela ngisesemutshaBengihlupheka ngize ngiphose ngife.+
Sengimdambiyana ngenxa yezinto ezibuhlungu ovumela ukuthi zingehlele.
16 Ulaka lwakho oluvuthayo lungiqeda amandla,+Sengizakufa ngenxa yezinto ezesabekayo ongehlisela zona.
17 Usuku lonke ziyangigombolozela angathi ngamanzi,Zithutsha macele wonke* zingihanqe.
18 Usubaxotshele khatshana lami abangane bami lalabo engibathandayo,+Ubumnyama sebungumngane wami.
