57 Ondingaviwa unkhia,
Mahi nawike usuka natyo.
Ovalume vokwahayeke-po Huku veli nokutyindwa-po,*+
Mahi nawike utyilwete okuti ondingaviwa yapita yatyindwa-po,
Kombanda yononkhumbi.*
2 Ondingaviwa wenda mombembwa.
Aveho vana vaendela mokuviukisa, vapululukwa-po komaula* avo.
3 “Mahi onwe, fwenei-ko,
Onwe vokwatyitwa nomukai onganga,
Vokwatyitwa nomulume weenda omukai wae konyima, no vomukai ekunga:
4 Olie onwe mukahi nokukwela?
Olie onwe mukahi nokukwengesa otyo mulupula elaka kondye?
Hanwe-ko ovana vonkhali?
Hanwe-ko ovana vounkhembi?+
5 Hanwe-ko vokwatokotelwa pomiaambi momiti ominene,+
Mombwelo yomiti viokwayova unene?+
Hanwe-ko vokwipaela ovana momalola,*+
Mombwelo yovikanda?
6 Omamanya okwasesa omomilola,* o ove,+
Oo, ahula kwoove.
O komamanya oko wanengulila oviawa viovikunwa, novilikutila.+
Okuti ndyina okuhambukilwa* ovipuka ovio?
8 Konyima yepito, no potyikulilo, ove wapaka-ko otyilolo oku uhinangailila.
Ove wanthya-po, olipolo omivalo,
Ove wainduka, oyawisa koula wove.
Walinga omphango navo.
9 Ove walauka ko Meleke* nomulela,
Walauka nomilela ominyingi vinika nawa.
Ovatumwa-ndaka vove, wevetuma kokule,
Opo ove ulauka Kondyembo.*
10 Ove welipaka monondyila mbove ononyingi,
Ohapopi okuti: ‘Petupu-ale oku matyinthwala nako!’
Ove wapinduka-po, okala vali nononkhono.
Otyo wahayekela-ko.*
11 Olie ove watila owoma, oteketa,
Etyi wahimbika nokukemba?+
Ove kwanthyinangelele,+
Ove kwetyipakele komutima.+
Ame hatile filuu, andyikalela kokule?*+
No ngootyo, ove kwakalele nonthilo onene naame.
13 Tyina ove wamaulula onkhwo,
Ovilolo waongiya, kamavikuyovola.+
Aviho mavikatyindwa-po nomphepo,
Mavifilwa vala katutu, aviende nomphepo,
Mahi una uholama mwaame, makapiñgana otyilongo,
Makakala komphunda yange ikola.+
14 Makukeivala ondaka iti: ‘Tungei, tungei etapalo! Pendyei ondyila!+
Atyiho tyilipundukwa mondyila yovanthu vange tyipolei-mo.’”
“Ame ndyikala apa pakulama, apa pakola,+
Mahi tupu ndyikala naava vaetesa onkhenda, vomutima weihamenwa,
Ndyipameke vomutima weihamenwa,
Ndyipameke omutima waava veli nokumoneswa emone.+
16 Mokonda, ame himeveyale atee-tee,
Nii himakala tyanumana apeho.+
Tyeetyi kombanda yange, omunthu usosoloka,+
Atee umwe ovipuka ovikwavo vifima natunga.
17 Nanumanena unene onkhali yae, nolukulu lwae amonena moumphulu,+
Nemuvanga, andyiholeka otyipala tyange kwe, andyinumana unene.
Mahi ngwe atwalako okweenda lwomphuki,+ okulandula vala etyi asoka momutima wae mwene.
18 Namona onondyila mbae,
Mahi, ame mandyimuhakula,+ andyimuhongolela,+
Mandyimuungumanesa* vali,+ andyiungumanesa vae vekahi nokulila.”+
19 “Ame mandyitungu otyinyango tyo komulungu.
Mandyikaavela ombembwa yahapu vana veli kokule, na vana veli popepi,
Mandyivehakula,”+ o Siovaa wetyipopia.
20 “Mahi onondingavivi vekahi ngelunga likahi nokututumba, lihatulu,
Omeva alio, aeta kondye omangole nonthata.
21 “Kutupu ombembwa yonondingavivi,”+ o Huku yange wetyipopia.
