23 “Elowei, onwe vanthita, onwe vokuhanya, vokutyandyanesa onongi mbotyuunda tyange!” o Siovaa wetyipopia.+
2 Etyi otyo tyapopia Siovaa Huku yo Isilayeli, wapopia ovanthita vokulisa ovanthu vae wati: “Onwe mwatyandyanesa onongi mbange, mumbuhanyikisa, amwehesuku nambo.”+
“Mandyilikondoka kwoonwe mokonda yovivi mulinga,” o Siovaa wetyipopia.
3 “Haa mandyikakongolola onongi mbange mbahupa-po mbuli movilongo aviho, ombu natyandyanesa,+ mandyikembukongolola andyimbweeta vali motyunda tyambo,+ mambukelityita ambukakala ononyingi.+ 4 Mandyikembupa ovanthita mavekembulisa umwe.+ Kamambukatila vali owoma, naike maikahahavala, naike maikavomba,” o Siovaa wetyipopia.
5 “Tala! Omboo mbuya ononthiki,” o Siovaa wetyipopia, “ononthiki mandyikayovesila Ndaviti ondyovo* iviukisa.+ Kuna ohamba imwe maikatumina,+ maikalinga yekungunyiko,* ayahakalinga okapungulula motyilongo,* aikaamena tyokwaviuka.+ 6 Kononthiki mbae, Sundaa makayovolwa,+ Isilayeli makakala nombembwa.+ Enyina makalukwa oliokuti: Siovaa Oe Omuviukisi Wetu.”+
7 “Mahi omboo mbuya ononthiki,” o Siovaa wetyipopia, “ononthiki vahamakati vali: ‘Na Siovaa umwe una omwenyo, wapola ova Isilayeli motyilongo tyo Isitu!’+ 8 mahi mavati: ‘Na Siovaa umwe una omwenyo, wapolele ovana veumbo lya Isilayeli kotyilongo tyo kombanda no kovilongo aviho evetyandyanesile, evekondola kotyilongo tyavo,’ ngako vakakala.”+
9 Pahe okuyemba kovauli oku:
Omutima wange mokati omu wateka,
Omankhipa ange eli nokuteketa.
Ndyilinga ngomulume wakolwa,*
Ndyilinga ngomulume weliyumba kovinyu,
Mokonda ya Siovaa, mokonda yonondaka mbae mbukola.
10 Mokonda eheke eli liepwila movanthu vokuhole onombalehi;+
Mokonda yokwateyelwa onkhano, eheke eli lili momutambo,+
Omalihilo o moluhandya akukuta.+
Ovipuka valinga kaviaviukile, valinga ovipuka viapenga mokonda ovo vatumina.
11 “Tyilinge ovauli tyilinge ovanakwa, vasila.*+
No mondywo yange mwene navasa-mo ovivi viavo,”+ o Siovaa wetyipopia.
12 “Ondyila yavo maikakala nolusenu, ainthikovela;+
Mavakatahulwa, avakatoka.
Mokonda ame mandyiveetela ovihuna
Menima liokukoya omphela,” o Siovaa wetyipopia.
13 “Pokati kovauli mo Samaliya+ namona-po otyipuka tyitoyesa:
Omaulo avo, atuka ku Mbaale,
Vayondya ovanthu vange ova Isilayeli.
14 Pokati kovauli mo Selusalei namona-po ovipuka ovivi unene valinga:
15 Siovaa womambamba ovita wapopila ovauli ovo wati:
“Mandyikevelisa ovifo vialula,
Andyikevepa omaande ena oukola.+
Mokonda ovauli vomo Selusalei, vatyandyanesa oumphuki motyilongo atyiho.”
16 Etyi otyo tyapopia Siovaa womambamba ovita wati:
“Mwahatehelelei onondaka mbovauli vati vemupopila omaulo.+
Vekahi nokumuyondya.*
17 Vapopila ovanthu vahandingi onthilo vevewana-wana, vati:
‘Siovaa wati: “Onwe mamukala nombembwa.”’+
Ava valandula omitima viavo vionkhango vevepopila okuti:
‘Mutupu ovihuna onwe mamukamona.’+
18 Olie uli povanthu voupanga omunene na* Siovaa,
Mamono, atehela ondaka yae?
Olie watehelela nawa ondaka yae eitavele?
19 Tala! Otyipepe matyitundu ku Siovaa, matyiya nonyengo onene;
Matyilingi ngotyinimawe matyiyumbwa komitwe viovanthu ovakalavi.+
20 Onyengo ya Siovaa kamaikondoka,
Mailingi umwe etyi asoka tyili momutima wae.
Konthyulilo yononthiki, onwe mamuketyikola umwe nawa otyo.
21 Ame hame natuma ovauli ovo, mahi mwene vaya nokuhateka.
Hapopile navo, mahi ngwe avapopi omaulo.+
22 Ine vali povanthu voupanga omunene naame,
Ñgeno vapopila ovanthu vange onondaka mbange,
Ñgeno vevekondola avahaende vali nondyila yavo ombi, avahalingi vali ovivi.”+
23 “Okuti ame ndyilinga vala Huku popepi noonwe,” o Siovaa wetyipopia “kokule hilingi Huku?”
24 “Okuti pena omulume upondola okuholama apa ame nahamono?”+ o Siovaa wetyipopia.
“Okuti ame hame naoya keulu no pohi?”+ o Siovaa wetyipopia.
25 “Ame neiva ovauli vaula omatutu tyatiwa ame nevetuma, vati: ‘Ame nata ondyoi! Nata ondyoi!’+ 26 Atee-pi okuula omatutu matyikala komitima viovauli? Vaula omatutu omomitima viavo mwene.+ 27 Vahanda okulingisisa ovanthu vange valimbwe enyina liange nonondyoi velipopila, ngeetyi ovo tate yavo valimbwa enyina liange mokonda ya Mbaale.+ 28 Omuuli una ondyoi apopie ondyoi mwene ata, ou una ondaka yange apopie ondaka yange notyili.”
“Oityi eyungu lina tyelifwa noñgima?” o Siovaa wetyipopia.
29 “Ondaka yange kaikahi ngotupia,”+ o Siovaa wetyipopia, “kaikahi ngohamala* yokuvambaula onkhanda?”+
30 “Otyo mandyilwisila ovauli,” o Siovaa wetyipopia, “vokulivaka onondaka mbange.”+
31 “Ame mandyilwisa ovauli,” o Siovaa wetyipopia, “vana vokupopia nelaka liavo okuti: ‘Oe wetyipopia!’”+
32 “Ame mandyilwisa ovauli vonondyoi mbomatutu,” o Siovaa wetyipopia, “ava vokupopia avayondyo ovanthu vange nomatutu avo, vokulipaka-ko.”+
“Mahi ame hevetumine nii hevepele otyitumino natyike. Kamavakaetela otyiwa natyike ovanthu ava,”+ o Siovaa wetyipopia.
33 “Putyina ovanthu ava, hamwe omuuli umwe, omunakwa ekupula okuti: ‘Oupi omutengi* wa Siovaa walema?’ Vekumbulula uti: ‘“Onwe, onwe omutengi walema! Ame mandyikemuhanya-ko,”+ o Siovaa wetyipopia.’ 34 Mahi omuuli, nomunakwa, na umwe povanthu upopia uti: ‘Ou omutengi wa* Siovaa walema!’ haa ame mandyimukondokela, nae no veumbo liae. 35 Etyi otyo onwe muli nokulipopila na vakwenyi, naava mulilandula navo muti: ‘Siovaa wakumbulula okuti-wi? Oityi Siovaa apopia?’ 36 Mahi omutengi* wa Siovaa ñgeno kamuupopi vali, mokonda omutengi* walema, mwene pahe onondaka mbenyi, onwe mwapilulula onondaka mba Huku yomwenyo, Siovaa womambamba ovita, Huku yetu.
37 “Etyi otyo una okupopila ovauli: ‘Siovaa wakumbulula okuti-wi? Oityi Siovaa apopia? 38 Ine onwe mupangela vala okupopia okuti: “Omutengi* wa Siovaa walema!,” etyi otyo Siovaa apopia, wati: “Mokonda onwe muti: ‘Ondaka oyo omutengi* wa Siovaa walema,’ ngwe nemutumale nati: ‘Mwahatiei: “Omutengi* wa Siovaa walema!”’ 39 tala! Mandyimukwata andyikemuyumba kokule, tyilinge onwe, tyilinge epunda-umbo napa onwe nonombwale mbenyi. 40 Mandyimwetela omupenyo, nolukundo lwahapu, ovanthu vahamakalimbwa.”’”+
