Ngoba ubusuku1 bude, njalo ngigcwele ukutshukuma kuze kusef. 5 Inyama yami yembethe impethu lamagade othulig; isikhumba sami siyadabuka siyenyanyekah. 6 Insuku zami ziyaphangisa kuleselukiso someluki, ziphele kungelathembai. 7 Khumbula ukuthi impilo yami ingumoya; ilihlo lami kaliyikuphinda libone okuhlej. 8 Ilihlo longibonayo kaliyikungibona futhi; amehlo akho aphezu kwami, kodwa ngizakuba ngingasekhok. 9 Iyezi liyaphela linyamalale; ngokunjalo owehlela engcwabeni kayikwenyukal. 10 Kaphindi abuyele emzini wakhem, lendawo yakhen kayisayikumazio.
