Ntembezelo we nthu wakatambunuka
1 Yahwe, lakidzani kuti andina nlandu
ngoti ndakatjila butjilo gusina nlandu.
Kakale ndakagalabgwe
muna Yahwe ndisingazunguzike.
2 Yahwe, mundishole kakale mundilike,
likani moyo wangu ne njalakang'wa dzangu.
3 Ludo gwenyu gusingazunguzike,
gumu mesho angu,
kakale ndogalikabgwe kumuli.
4 Anditogala ntutshi ne bathu basibe tjimwe,
kene kuyendidzana ne batjengedzi.
5 Ndobenga goko le bashingi be bubi,
ndizo andingagale ne babi.
6 Ndongula maboko angu kulakidza kusabe ne nlandu,
ndibe ndipoteleka tjibeso tjenyu Yahwe tjinopisigwa zwibhayilo,
7 ndimbila pezhugwi lumbo gwe kuboka,
ndileba mishingo yenyu yose inotjenamisa.
8 Yahwe, ndoda ng'umba yamunogala muili,
ne panogala tjedza tjenyu.
9 Musinditshwayilile kuzhe ne batjinyi,
kene butjilo gwangu ne bana nyota ye kubulaya,
10 bathu be maboko azhele bubi,
maboko abo e luji azhele tjizwimba nlomo.
11 Koga nge kwangu, ndakatambunuka,
mundidzutunule, mube ne ngoni nami.
12 Makumbo angu amile pakalulwama,
mu gubungano gulu, ndowokudza Yahwe.
