Kumkuluphira Mlungu
Kpwa chilongozi wa aimbadzi. Kuhumira sauti ya “Njiya mpore akalaye kure.” Wira wa Daudi arioutunga bada ya kugbwirwa ni Afilisti hiko Gathi.
1 Nionera mbazi, ee Mlungu, mana atu ananishambuliya.
Aviha ananionera dii.
2 Aviha angu ananizoresa mutsi wosi,
hinyo anaoheha nami kpwa kudzikarya ni anji sana.
3 Wakati naogopha
nindakukuluphira uwe.
4 Namkuluphira Mlungu ambaye nenore naritogola,
namkuluphira Mlungu bila wuoga.
Kpwani mwanadamu andanihendani?
5 Mutsi wosi ananifyakatsira
ananiazira mai chila siku.
6 Nkukutana akapanga na akanioteya,
nkulolato gosi nihendago,
kuno a tayari kuniolaga.
7 Ariphe sawa na uyi wao, ee Mlungu,
aangamize kpwa tsukizizo!
8 Uwe unamanya vira nirivyohangaika,
matsozi gangu unagatambukira,
dze, gano gosi tagaandikirwe mwako chitabuni?
9 Hipho nikuvoyapho maadui gangu nkushindwa.
Mino namanya kukala Mlungu a uphande wangu.
10 Namkuluphira Mlungu ambaye nenore naritogola,
namkuluphira Mwenyezi Mlungu ambaye nenore naritogola.
11 Namkuluphira Mlungu bila wuoga.
Pho kpwani mwanadamu andanihendani?
12 Mino lazima niuse naziri yangu kpwako, ee Mlungu,
nindakulavira sadaka za shukurani.
13 Mana uwe ukaitivya roho yangu na chifo ee,
ukanirinda nisigbwe
nikale ndasagala phephi na uwe, ee Mlungu,
pharipho na mwangao ulavyao uhai.
