 2 Le nkulombole bika le, a wami mwana,

Bika, a mwana wa ndá yami,

Ne bika le, a mwana wa mpiko yami?+

 3 Kokapāna bukomo bobe ku bana-bakaji,+

Nansha kulonda mashinda onakanyanga balopwe.+

 4 Kebifwaninwepo balopwe, abe Lemwele,

Kebifwaninwepo balopwe kutoma vinyu

Nansha bendeji kunena’mba: “Le bitomibwa byami bidi kwepi?”+

 5 Kutyina’mba bakatoma kebelwa mbila iletelwe

Ne kunyengakanya byepelo bya boba bapēlulwe.

 6 Pāna bitomibwa bikolwañana ku boba boneka+

Ne vinyu ku boba badi mu tusua twa malwa.*+

 7 Wibaleke batome belwe bulanda bwabo;

Wibaleke bavulaminwe makambakano abo.

 8 Nenena kamāma;

Lwila byepelo bya boba bonso boneka.+

 9 Nena ne kutyiba mambo moolokele;

Lwila byepelo bya* mupēlulwe ne mulanda.+

11 Wandi mulume umukulupile mu mutyima wandi,

Kadi kabulwangapo kintu kya bulēme.

12 Upalanga mulume mpalo miyampe, ke mibipo,

Mafuku onso a būmi bwandi.

13 Usokolanga myoya ne bukonge;

Usangelanga kwingila na maboko andi.+

14 Udi pamo bwa byombo bya bansunga,+

Uselanga byakudya byandi kulampe.

15 Kadi ubūkanga abo bukidi bufuku,

Usokolanga byakudya bya ba mu njibo yandi

Ne bipindi bya bengidi bandi bana-bakaji.+

16 Ulañanga budimi kadi wapota’bo;

Udimanga budimi bwa mañanza na kususuka na mingilo.*

17 Wilongololanga mwanda wa mingilo mikomo,*+

Kadi ukomejanga maboko andi.

18 Umonanga’mba bya busunga byandi i bimwenwa’mo;

Kinanu kyandi kekibulangapo bufuku.

19 Maboko andi akwatanga kibunda kya nyushi,

Kadi maboko andi akwatyijanga kinoa kya nyushi.*+

20 Ubādilanga yewa mupēlulwe kikasala kyandi,

Kadi uvungulwilanga mulanda maboko andi.+

21 Kaselelangapo ba mu njibo yandi mutyima kūlu mwanda wa mashika mekwate

Ke-pantu bonso ba mu njibo yandi bavwele bivwalwa bileta kyanga.*

23 Wandi mulume i muyukane biyampe mu bibelo bya kibundi,+

Mwine mwashikatanga mu bukata mwa bakulumpe ba ntanda.

24 Upuñanga bivwalwa bya bukonge* upotoloja’byo

Kadi upotejanga mikaba ku bansunga.

25 Uvwele bukomo ne buya bwa dyangi,

Kadi utalanga mafuku a kumeso na kikulupiji.*

26 Wasamanga kyakanwa kyandi na tunangu;+

Kijila kya kanye* kidi pa ludimi lwandi.

27 Utalanga mingilo ya ba mu njibo yandi,

Kadi kadyangapo mukate wa bukope.+

28 Bandi bana bemananga kebamutela bu wa nsangaji;

Wandi mulume wimananga kamutendela.

29 Kudi bana-bakaji bavule bankanka,*

Ino abe—wibapityile bonso.

30 Bupopoke bubwanya kwikala bwa bubela, kadi buya nabo bubwanya kwikala bwa mu kitatyi kityetye,*+

Ino mwana-mukaji utyina Yehova ukatendelwa.+

31 Mupale mpalo yandi pa byobya byalonga,*+

Kadi mingilo yandi imutendele mu bibelo bya kibundi.+
