1 Haleluya! Ngokuba kulungile ukuvuma ngoThixo wethu; Ngokuba kumnandi, ifanelekile indumiso."
2 Umakhi weYerusalem nguYehova; Abagxothwa bakwaSirayeli ubabuthela khona."
3 Ulophilisa abaphuke intliziyo, Abophe amanxeba abo;"
4 Ulobala inani leenkwenkwezi, Ezibiza zonke ngamagama."
5 Inkulu iNkosi yethu, inamandla amakhulu; Ingqondo yayo ayiphele ndawo."
6 Ulophakamisa abalulamileyo nguYehova, Uthobela abangendawo emhlabeni."
7 Hlabelani kuYehova eyokubulela, Mbetheleni uhadi uThixo wethu."
8 Ulosibekelisa izulu ngamafu, Ulolungisela umhlaba imvula; Ulontshulisa utyani ezintabeni;"
9 Ulonika inkomo ukudla, Namathole ehlungulu alilayo."
10 Akabunanze nganto ubugorha behashe, Akakholiswa zizitho zendoda;"
11 UYehova ukholiswa ngabamoyikayo, Abalinde inceba yakhe."
12 Mncome uYehova, Yerusalem. Mdumise uThixo wakho, Ziyon:"
13 Ngokuba eyomelezile imivalo yamasango akho, Ebasikelele abantwana bakho phakathi kwakho."
14 Ngulomisa uxolo emideni yakho, Wakuhluthisa ngengqolowa etyebileyo."
15 Ulothumela intetho yakhe ehlabathini, Ilizwi lakhe ligidima ngokukhawuleza;"
16 Ulonika ikhephu njengoboya bezimvu, Ugcwayela iqabaka njengothuthu,"
17 Ephosa umkhenkce wakhe njengamaqhekeza; Ngubani na onokuma phambi kwengqele yakhe?"
18 Uthumela ilizwi lakhe, ezo nto azinyibilikise; Uvuthuzisa umoya wakhe, aqukuqele amanzi."
19 Uloxelela uYakobi ilizwi lakhe, USirayeli imimiselo yakhe namasiko akhe."
20 Akenjanga ngalo kolunye uhlanga, Namasiko aluwazi. Haleluya!"
