Base bengenisa iminikelo , nokweshumi, nezinto ezingcwele ngokuthembeka; uKhonaniya, umLevi, waba ngumphathi walokho; uShimeyi umfowabo waba ngowesibili.

Amadoda enza umsebenzi wawo ngokuthembeka ; ababonisi phezu kwabo babe ngoJahati no-Obadiya amaLevi, emadodaneni akwaMerari, noZakariya noMeshulamu emadodaneni amaKohati , ukuba babahole , kanye namaLevi onke ayeqonda izinto zokubethwa.

Nkosi, uphi umusa wakho wakuqal a owawufungela kuDavide ngokuthembeka kwakho na?

ebusweni bukaJehova, ngokuba uyeza, yebo, uyeza ukwahlulela umhlaba; uyakwahlulela izwe ngokulunga, nezizwe ngokuthembeka kwakhe.

Ngiyazi ukuthi izahlulelo zakho zilungil e nokuthi wangilaya ngokuthembeka.

Uyalezile ubufakazi bakho ngokulunga ngokuthembeka okukhulu.

Jehova, yizwa umkhuleko wami , ubeke indlebe ekuncengeni kwami ; ungiphendule ngokuthembeka kwakho nokulunga kwakho.

Ngiyakuzimisela wena ngokuthembeka ube ngumkami ; uyakumazi uJehova.
