Dumisani uThixo. Ngizambabaza uThixo ngenhliziyo yami yonke enkundleni yabaqotho lasemhlanganweni. 2Mikhulu imisebenzi kaThixo; isemicabangweni yabo bonke abathokoza ngayo. 3Zilenkazimulo lobukhosi izenzo zakhe, lokulunga Kwakhe kumi kuze kube laphakade.
4Wenzile ukuthi izimanga zakhe zikhunjulwe; uThixo ulomusa lesihawu. 5Uyabapha ukudla labo abamesabayo; uyasikhumbula isivumelwano Sakhe lanini. 6Ubatshengisile abantu bakhe amandla emisebenzi yakhe, ngokubapha amazwe ezinye izizwe.
7Imisebenzi yezandla zakhe ithembekile, ilungile; zonke iziqondiso zakhe ziyathembeka. 8Zimi kaziguquki nini lanini, zenziwa ngeqiniso langobuqotho. 9Wathumela abantu bakhe insindiso; wasingcwelisa isivumelwano Sakhe okwanininini lingcwele liyesabeka ibizo lakhe.
