Nahumi
1 Musapu mubi wa Nineva:+ Mukanda wa kimonwa kya Nahumi* mwine Elekoshi:
2 Yehova i Leza usakanga kulamatwa bunka+ kadi ulubulanga kinongo;
Yehova ulubulanga kinongo kadi utengele kulombola bukalabale bwandi.+
Yehova ulubulanga kinongo pa boba bamushikilwe,
Kadi ubikīle balwana nandi bukalabale.
3 Yehova wijanga pa kukwatwa bulobo+ kadi udi na bukomo bukatampe,+
Ino Yehova kakalekapo nansha dimo kupāna mfuto mifwaninwe.+
Kashinda kandi kadi mu kivula kya bonakani ne kimpumpu,
Kadi makumbi i luvumbi lwa maulu andi.+
Ba Bashane ne Kalamela abafumba,+
Maluba a Lebanona nao abafumba.
5 Ngulu itenkananga pa mwanda wandi,
Mikuna nayo isunguluka.+
Nshi ikafulamunwa pa mwanda wa mpala yandi,
Pamo ne ntanda ne byonso bidi’mo.+
6 Le i ani ubwanya kwimana ku meso andi shi wafītwa?+
Ne i ani ubwanya kukomena kyanga kya bulobo bwandi?+
Bukalabale bwandi bukapungululwa pamo bwa mudilo,
Kadi mabwe akavingakanibwa pa mwanda wandi.
7 Yehova i muyampe,+ i kifuko kikomejibwe mu difuku dya tusua.+
Aye uvulukile* boba bakimba kunyemena mwadi.+
8 Ukatukija fututu kifuko kyandi* na dilobe dipitula,
Kadi fukutu ikalondalonda balwana nandi.
9 Le i kitumba’ka kyomukakutyila Yehova?
Aye utukijanga fututu.
Tusua ketukekala’kopo musunsa wa bubidi.+
10 Mwanda i bekutakanye pamo bwa miba,
Kadi badi pamo bwa boba bakolwe mālwa;*
Ino bakasōkwa pamo bwa bityakuku byūmu.
11 Kodi kukatamba muntu ukutyila Yehova kitumba kibi,
Uleta madingi a bituputupu.
12 Yehova wanena namino amba:
“Nansha byobadi bakomo bininge kadi bangi,
Nansha nabya, bakatyumunwa kadi bakapita.*
Nakumwesha* malwa, ino nkikakumweshapo monka malwa.
13 Pano nsa kutyumuna mukabo wandi wa lupungu podi,+
Kadi nkatyiba bijimba byobe pabidi.
14 Yehova wasoñanya pa mwanda obe* amba,
‘Dijina dyobe kedikendelelapo monka.
Nkatalula bankishi basōnge ne bankishi ba byuma* mu njibo* ya baleza bobe.
Nkakulongela kibundu, mwanda wi wa bituputupu.’
15 Tala! Pa ngulu padi maulu a yewa uleta myanda miyampe,
Yewa usapula ndoe.+
A Yuda, soba masobo obe,+ fikidija mpiko yobe,
Mwanda muntu wa bitupu kakapitepo mobe monka.
Aye ukonakanibwa bya binebine.”
