44 “Pahe, tehelela, ove Sakoo, muundapi wange,
Noove Isilayeli, ou ame nakoya.+
2 Etyi, otyo tyapopia Siovaa,
Omutungi wove, Una wekulinga,+
Wekukwatesako tundee etyi uli meimo,* wati:
3 Mokonda, mandyikauyulila omeva ku una wankhia ohunga,*+
Andyikakwatesa omilola viomeva mohika yakukuta.
5 Umwe makati: “Ame ndyimunthu wa Siovaa.”+
Omukwavo mekeliluka enyina lya Sakoo,
Nkhele omukwavo makahoneka peke liae okuti: “Ndyimunthu wa Siovaa.”
Mekeliluka enyina lya Isilayeli.’
‘Ame tete, tupu ame nahulilila.+
Ame vala Huku, kutupu vali omukwavo.+
7 Olie ukahi ngaame?+
Apopile peulu, etyipopi, tupu etyindekesa!+
Vapopie ovipuka mavikeya,
Nevi nkhele vihenemoneke,
Ngeetyi ame ndyihole okulinga okupolelela kohale-hale etyi naeta-ko ovanthu.
8 Muhatilei owoma,
Muhehulilwei mokonda yowoma.+
Ame hetyipopilile wike-wike pwoonwe, andyimunoñgonokesa-tyo tyina nkhele tyihenemoneke?
Onwe munombangi mbange.+
Okuti hame vala Huku, kuna vali omukwavo?
Au, kutupu vali Onkhanda onkhwavo.+ Ame hii vali naike.’”
9 Aveho vokuhonga ovilolo, kavasilivila,
Ovilolo viavo vehole unene, kamavikevekwatesako.+
11 Talei! Aveho alinga navo otyisangela, mavakakundiswa!+
Ovanongo vatyo, ovanthu vala.
Veliongiye aveho, avakala ponomphangu mbavo.
Mavakatila unene owoma, avakakundiswa aveho.
12 Onkhulungu unthila otyivela komakala noviti viae,*
Etyiviukaisa nohamala.
Utyinthila nokuvoko kwae kwapama.+
Konyima, aliwa nondyala, aponwa.
Mokonda yokuhanwine omeva, epwila.
13 Wokuhonga omavai, utandaveka ongoi yokweeleka, anthindi mevai nonkhula.
Etyiviukisa nomphelo, otyo aeleka notyiti tyokunthinda.
14 Ou omukwavo, otyilinga tyae, okutyoka omisendulu.
Ukoya omuti umwe, omuti umwe wakola,
Euyungu nawa, opo ukole vali komiti omikwavo vili motyiteta.+
Utwika omuti,* aukuliswa nombila.
15 Nkhele omukwavo, upola omuti oo, eunthiakana potupia.
Komuti oko uteta-ko, anthiakana opo aunguluke,
Uyakesa otupia, ayoko ombolo.
Otyinthimbu otyikwavo, etyilingi otyika-huku, etyifende.
Omuti oo, uuhonga, aukala otyilolo, pahe ngako elipetamena.+
16 Otyinthimbu tyomuti oo, utyinthiakana.
Notyinthimbu otyo, uyoka ohitu, ali, ekuta.
Tupu, uungulukwa, ati:
“Iyaa! Ndyikahi nokuunguluka, otyo ndyitala potupia.”
17 Mahi, etyi tyahupa-po utyilinga otyika-huku, utyihonga tyikale otyilolo tyahongwa.
Ulipetamena kutyo, etyifende.
Ulikwambela kutyo, ati:
“Ndyovole-vo, mokonda ove u huku yange.”+
18 Ngwe kavei natyike, kavanoñgonokele natyike,+
Mokonda omaiho avo apatwa, kaapondola okumona-po,
Omitima viavo vitupu ounongo wokupunga.
19 Nawike usokolola nawa momutima wae,
Nawike una enoñgonoko ine ekungunyiko, apopi okuti:
“Otyinthimbu tyimwe netyinthiakana potupia,
Komakala atyo, andyiyoko-ko ombolo, nohitu opo ndyilie.
Okuti otyinthimbu etyi tyesala-po, ndyipondola okutyilinga otyipuka tyitoyesa?+
Okuti ndyipondola okufenda kotyivai* napola komuti?”
20 Omunthu oo, ulia etwe.
Omutima wae omuyondyi, wemuyapula.
Ngwe kapondola okuliyovola,* nii okupopia okuti:
“Otyipuka etyi ndyina-tyo kokulio kwange, ha tyomatutu-ko?”
21 “Hinangela ovipuka ovio, ove Sakoo, noove Isilayeli,
Mokonda ove umuuundapi wange.
Ame nekutunga, ove, umuundapi wange.+
Ove Isilayeli, ame himekulimbwa.+
22 Mandyikanyima ovivi viove, avikala ngatyina nevihika nekaka,+
Ononkhali mbove, ambukala ngatyina nembuhika nekaka limwe enene.
Kondoka kwaame, ame mandyikuyovola.+
23 Kwiilila ove ulu,
Siovaa walinga etyi ankho ahanda!
Kwiililei unene, onwe malola okuli kombanda yohi!
Kwiililei onwe nomphunda,+
Noonwe viteta, nomiti vienyi aviho!
Mokonda, Siovaa wayovola Sakoo,
Ku Isilayeli, alekesa ouwa wae.”+
24 Etyi, otyo tyapopia Siovaa, Omuyovoli wove,+
Una wekutunga okupolelela meimo, wati:
“Ame, ame Siovaa, una watunga atyiho.
Olie ankho tuna-e?
25 Ame ndyingwangwanesa omanyingilikilo ovauli vomatutu.*
Ovitapi, Ame ndyivikalesa ngovityova.+
Ame Una wokungwangwanesa ovanongo,
Ounongo wavo, andyiukalesa owova.+
26 Ame Una ufwisapo onondaka mbomuumbili wae,
Wokufwisapo atyiho ovatumwa-ndaka vae vaula.+
Una upopia o Selusalei ati: ‘Mamukakalwa.’+
Apopi omapunda-umbo o Sundaa ati: ‘Maakapindulwa-po.+
Ame, mandyikapindula-po omatunthu ayo.’+
27 Ame Una upopila omaande okwaya kohi okuti: ‘Kukutei!
Mandyikakukutisa onondongi mbove ambuho.’+
28 Ame Una ukahi nokupopia okuti: Silu,+ ‘omunthita wange.
Makalinga atyiho ndyihanda.’+
Una upopia o Selusalei okuti: ‘Maikapindulwa-po,’
Apopi ondywo yokufendela okuti: ‘Ehina liove, malikaikwa-po.’”+
