1 Oh Thixo, uNkulunkulu ophindiselayo,
2 Phakama, awu Mahluli womhlaba;
3 Koze kube nini ababi, Oh Thixo,
4 Bathulula amazwi okukloloda;
5 Ziyabanyathezela abantu bakho, Oh Thixo;
6 Zibulala umfelokazi kanye lowezizweni;
7 Zithi, “UThixo kaboni;
8 Limukani, lina elingelangqondo phakathi kwabantu;
9 Yena lowo owayigxumekayo indlebe kezwa yini?
10 Yena lowo oqondisa izizwe kajezisi yini?
11 UThixo uyayazi imicabango yomuntu;
12 Ubusisiwe umuntu omqondisayo, Oh Thixo,
13 uyamphumuza ensukwini zokuhlupheka,
14 Ngoba uThixo kazukwala abantu bakhe;
15 Ukwahlulela kuzaphinda njalo kumiswe ngokulunga,
16 Ngubani ozangimela ekulweni lababi na?
17 Aluba uThixo wayengangelulekanga,
18 Lapho ngasengisithi, “Unyawo lwami selutshelela,”
19 Nxa ukunqineka kwase kungikhulela,
20 Kambe isihlalo sobukhosi esixhwalileyo singema lawe yini
21 Bayahlangana ukumelana labalungileyo
22 Kodwa uThixo useyinqaba yami,
23 Uzabaphindisela ngenxa yezono zabo
