11 Ndathi, Andiyi kumbona uYa, uYa ezweni labaphilileyo; Andiyi kuba samkhangela umntu, ndikubemi belabangasekhoyo.
12 Umnquba wam uza kuncothulwa, ufuduswe umke kum, njengentente yomalusi; Ndibusongile njengomluki ubomi bam; unditsheca ezintsingeni. Uya kundigqibela ngosuku olunye.
13 Ndazizolisa kwada kwasa; njengengonyama, wenjenjalo ukuwaphula onke amathambo am. Uya kundigqibela ngosuku olunye.
14 Njengehlankomo, njengendwe, ndenjenjalo ukukrikriza, Ndalila njengevukuthu; aphela amehlo am kukubheka phezulu: Yehova, ndifingekile, ndimele.
15 Ndothini na ukubulela, ethethile nje kum, wenza nokwenza? Mandicothoze yonke iminyaka yam eya kuza phezu kobukrakra bomphefumlo wam.
