Ikhambi Elilapha Ukukhathazeka Okudlulele Nempakamo

Ukukhathazeka nempakamo akuvamile ukucatshangwa njengezinto ezihlobene, kodwa kunjalo zihlobene. Kungenzeka ungazizwa uphakeme ngesikhathi usakhungathwe ukukhathazeka, kodwa impakamo iyizimpande zakho ukukhathazeka. Ngesikhathi ukhathazeka, uyaziphakamisa uzibeke ezingeni lokubhekana nezinkinga ezingaphezulu kwezinga lezinto okumele ubhekane nazo.

INkosi uDavide wayekuqonda lokhu. Kumthandazo wakhe omfishane, eMbhalweni, sithola isivumo salokho okuwumsusa wokukhathazeka okudlulele.

Simakade, inhliziyo yami ayizigabisi,

namehlo ami awaziphakamisi,

angingeni ezindabeni ezinkulu

nasezintweni ezingehlulayo.

Ngiwududuzile, ngawuthulisa umphefumulo wami,

njengomntwana elunyulwa ebeleni likanina,

unjalo-ke nomphefumulo wami

ngaphakathi kimi.

Israyeli, yethemba uSimakade

kusukela manje kuze kube phakade.

Umsebenzi wethu akusikona ukuqonda bese senza zonke izinto ziphumelele, kunalokho ukuthulisa sehlise umoya wethu. Njengengane encelayo ingeke yaqonda ukuthi kungani ubisi olunomsoco oluvela kumama wayo ingasanikezelwa, nathi singangayazi impilo ukuthi kungani inamagquma namathafa ngalendlela okuyiyona. Kodwa futhi, njengengane encelayo nomama wayo, sisayethemba iNkosi yethu ukusinikezela konke esikudingayo, ngisho sezingekho izindlela ezijwayelekile.
