Psalms 1— 1959

1Ubusisiwe umuntu ongahambi ngeziluleko zababi, ongemi endleleni yezoni, ongahlali enkundleni yabaklolodayo,

2kepha okuthokoza kwakhe kusemthethweni kaJehova, ozindla ngomthetho wakhe imini nobusuku.

3Unjengomuthi otshaliwe ngasemifuleni yamanzi, othela isithelo sawo ngesikhathi sawo, oqabunga lawo lingabuni, nakho konke akwenzayo uyakuba nenhlanhla kukho.

4Ababi abanjalo, kepha banjengamakhoba aphephethwa ngumoya.

5Ngalokho ababi abayikuma ekwahlulelweni, nezoni ebandleni labalungileyo.

6Ngokuba uJehova uyayazi indlela yabalungileyo, kodwa indlela yababi yobhubha.
