6. Ngokuba efasiteleni lendlu yami ngalunguza eheleni lami,
7. ngabheka phakathi kwabangenalwazi,ngabona phakathi kwabasha insizwa engenakuqonda,

14. “Imihlatshelo yeminikelo yokuthula yayingifanele;namuhla sengigcwalisile izithembiso zami.
15. Ngalokho ngiphumile ukukuhlangabezaukuba ngifunisise ubuso bakho;sengikutholile.

17. Ngifafazile umbhede wami ngemure,* nangomhlaba,nangokinamona.*
18. Woza sizanelise ngothando kuze kuse,sijabule ngokuthandana.
19. Ngokuba indoda yami ayikho ekhaya;ihambile uhambo olude;
20. yaphatha isikhwama semali ngesandla sayo;iyakubuyela ekhaya ngosuku lokuhlangana kwenyanga.”
