50 Etyi, otyo tyapopia Siovaa, wati:
“Omukanda wokulihenga+ wa nyoko nahenga, uli-pi?
Ine pu vana vokwandevala, okulie nekulandesa?
2 Naina, oityi nahavasilile omunthu nawike pano etyi neya?
Omokonda yatyi nehetavelelwe nomunthu nawike etyi naihana?+
Okuti okuvoko kwange okusupi, kakutyivili okuyovola?
Okuti ame ndyitupu ononkhono mbokuyovola?+
Ombisi yamo aivolo, mokonda mutupu omeva,
Ainkhi, mokonda yaliwa nohunga.
3 Eulu ndyilifika enthiki,+
Andyilivaleka onosaku.”
4 Tatekulu Ohamba Onene Siovaa, wampha elaka lyo vokwalongeswa,*+
Opo ndyityivile okukumbulula* nondaka ikahi nawa,* una waponwa.+
Umphindula-po ononthiki ambuho komuhuka.
Upindula-po okutwi kwange opo ndyitehelele ngovanthu vokwalongeswa.+
Anahatale mohika.+
6 Omwongo wange neupakula ku vana vekahi nokumbeta,
Omapanda ange andyiepakula ku vana vekahi nokunana* onondyeli mbange.
Haholekele otyipala tyange kovipuka vikundisa, no komalute.+
7 Mahi, Tatekulu Ohamba Onene Siovaa, mankhwatesako.+
Otyo nahamakundila.
Otyo natenekela otyipala tyange ngemanya,+
Ndyityii okuti, himakakunda.
8 Una upopia okuti ndyimuviuki, uli popepi.
Olie upondola okunthendeleya?*+
Tulitalamene, tulitale.
Olie una ondaka naame?
Afwene pwaame.
9 Talei! Tatekulu Ohamba Onene Siovaa, mankhwatesako.
Olie upondola okumbela onombei?
Talei! Aveho mavakapwa ngotyikutu.
Mavakaliwa nounyama wokulia ovinyanga.
10 Olie pwoonwe una onthilo onene na Siovaa,
Utehelela ondaka yomuundapi wae?+
Olie weenda menthiki enene tyehena otyimimi?
Ayumbe onthumbi menyina lya Siovaa, akwatesila* mu Huku yae.
11 “Tala! Onwe vokukahi nokuyakesa otupia,
Otyo mukatula onohahe,*
Endelei motyimimi tyotupia twenyi,
Pokati konohahe mbotupia mwatemesa.
Etyi, otyo mamukatambula peke liange:
Mamukalangala molwihamo olunene.
