Glad When They Said

¹Igama lokukhuphuka. ElikaDavide. Ngajabula lapho bethi kimi: “Masiye endlini kaJehova.”

²Izinyawo zethu sezimi emasangweni akho, Jerusalema,

³Jerusalema, wena owakhiwe njengomuzi ohlanganisiwe ngokuqinileyo,

⁴lapho imindeni ikhuphukela khona, imindeni kaJehova, ngokomthetho ka-Israyeli ukuba idumise igama likaJehova.

⁵Ngokuba kumisiwe khona izihlalo zokwahlulela, izihlalo zobukhosi zendlu kaDavide.

⁶Khulekelani ukuthula kwaseJerusalema: “Abakuthandayo bayakuphumelela kahle.

⁷Makube khona ukuthula phakathi kwezingange zakho, nenhlanhla ezindlini zakho zobukhosi.”

⁸Ngenxa yabafowethu nabangane bethu ngizakuthi manje: “Makube khona ukuthula kuwe.”

⁹Ngenxa yendlu kaJehova uNkulunkulu wethu ngiyakukufunela okuhle.
