UDavide wathi kuNkulunkulu : Akusimi yini owaya leza ukuba abantu babalwe na ? Yimina engonileyo ; ngenze kabi kakhulu, kepha lezi zimvu zenzeni na? Isandla sakho, Jehova Nkulunkulu wami , masibe phezu kwami naphezu kwendlu kababa , singabi phezu kwabantu bakho ukubashaya ngesifo. I-altare elisesibuyeni sika-Orinani

Abanabanumzane abakho lwayo bangabadeleli , ngokuba bengabazalwane, kodwa kube yikhona bebakhonza kakhulu , ngokuba bengabakholwayo nabathandekayo labo abasizakala ngomsebenzi wabo . Wofundisa lezo zinto , uyale ngazo. Isifundiso masibe ngesiqinisileyo

USawule wathi kuDavide : Bheka, indodakazi yami enkulu uMerabi ngiyakukunika yona ibe ngumkakho; yiba yiqhawe lami kuphela, ulwe izimpi zikaJehova. Ngokuba uSawule wathi: Isandla sami masingabi phezu kwakhe , kepha isandla samaFilisti masibe phezu kwakhe.

Isibonelo samazwi aphilayo masibe yilawo owawezwa kimi ngokukholwa nangothando olukuKristu Jesu;

UDavide wathi kuJehova , lapho eyibona ingelosi eyayibabulala abantu : Bheka, mina ngonile, ngenzile okubi; kepha lezi zimvu zenzeni na ? Isandla sakho masibe phezu kwami naphezu kwendlu kababa. I-altare elisesibuyeni sika-Arawuna

Isandla sakho masibe lusizo kimi, ngokuba ngikhethile iziyalezo zakho.

Abadlulayo abasho ukuthi : Isibusiso sikaJehova masibe phezu kwenu; siyanibusisa egameni likaJehova.

Insindiso ingekaJehova; isibusiso sakho masibe kubantu bakho. Sela

Isandla sakho masibe phezu kwendoda yesokunene sakho , phezu kwendodana yomuntu ozikhulisele yona;

Ngakho-ke thina sonke esiphelele masibe nokuqonda okunjalo; kepha uma kokuthile niqonda ngokunye, nalokho uNkulunkulu uyakunambulela khona,

Masibe nezinhlangothi ezine ezilingeneyo , siphindwe kabili ; ubude baso bube njengokudazuluka kweminwe , nobubanzi baso bube njengokudazuluka kweminwe.

Unina wayesethi kuye : Isiqalekiso sakho , ndodana yami , masibe phezu kwami; lalela izwi lami, uhambe ukungithathela wona.

Isitha sami masibe njengomubi, nongisukelayo njengowonileyo.
