1Akunani kwaukuhleleleka unyanisekile
kunokuba sisiyatha esinganyanisekanga.
2Ukutyhuthuzela kungekho kuqonda akulunganga;
onyawo zingxamileyo uyayiphosa indlela.
3Ubuyatha bomntu buyabulimaza ubomi bakhe,
aze ke entliziyweni yakhe asole uNdikhoyo.
4Isinhanha siba nezihlobo ezininzi,
kodwa lona ihlwempu libalekwa nazezikhoyo.
5Ingqina elixokayo liyohlwaywa;
umntu ongathethi nyani enkundleni akasindi.
6Baninzi abacenga izikhulu;
bonke abantu bazizihlobo zomntu ophayo.
7Ihlwempu alifunwa nangabakowalo; yeka ke ukungafunwa kwalo zizihlobo!
Noba selizifuna linezicengo soze lizifumane.
8Ozingela ubulumko uyazithanda ngokwakhe;
okuxabisileyo ukuqonda uzuza ukonwaba.
9Ingqina elixokayo liyohlwaywa;
umntu ongathethi nyani enkundleni uyatshabalala.
10Isiyatha asifanelwa kukuthi zava –
kobeka phi ukuba kubi kokuba amatshawe aphathwe sisicaka?
11Umntu onengqondo akacaphuki msinya;
kuye linqaku ukungakhathali noba selesoniwa.
12Umsindo kakumkani unjengokugragrama kwengonyama;
ke kona ukwamkeleka kuye kunjengombethe phezu kohlaza.
13Unyana osisiyatha uyamtshonisa uyise;
kanti ke yena umfazi onochuku ufana nendlu enethontsi.
14Indlu nobutyebi lilifa looyise,
kodwa umfazi onengqondo uvela kuNdikhoyo.
15Ubuvila bufuthanisela umntu ngobuthongo;
ukanti ke umntu ongasebenziyo ubhuqwa yindlala.
16Umntu ozithobelayo iziluleko uzuza ubomi;
ke yena ongayikhathaleliyo ihambo yakhe uyafa.
17Umntu opha ohlelelekileyo ufana noboleka uNdikhoyo;
uNdikhoyo uya kumbuyisela.
18Mqeqeshe unyana wakho, kuba oko kunika ithemba,
kodwa ke ungagabadeli ude umbulale.
19Umntu ocaphuka msinya uvuna loo nto ayilimileyo;
ukuba ukhe wamnceda kwaba kanye uya kuphinda-phinda.
20Waphulaphule amacebiso, ukwamkele ukululekwa –
ekugqibeleni uya kuba nobulumko.
21Umntu uyaceba acwangcise entliziyweni yakhe,
kodwa ke licebo likaNdikhoyo eliphumelelayo.
22Umntu uzilahlela kuloo nto ayinqwenelayo;
phofu akunani kwaukuba lihlwempu kunokuba lixoki.
23Obona bomi kukuhlonela uNdikhoyo;
umntu owenjenjalo uyazonwabela, inkathazo ingamchaphazeli.
24Ivila liyakha esityeni,
kodwa lingabi nako ukusa emlonyeni.
25Mohlwaye umntu odelelayo, ukuze bazuze ukuqonda abangekabi namava;
isilumko siyafunda sakululekwa.
26Unyana ophatha gadalala uyise, agxothe unina,
ngunyana olihlazo nonamanyondololo.
27Nyana wam, ukuba uthe walutyeshela uqeqesho,
uya kuphulukana namazwi anolwazi.
28Ingqina elingungantweni liyabugqwetha ubulungisa;
okuphuma emlonyeni womntu okhohlakeleyo bububi bodwa.
29Umgxeki ufanelwe kukugwetywa;
ke sona isiyatha silindelwe kukutyatyushwa emhlana.
