To the chief Musician upon Nehiloth, A Psalm of David.
1 Give ear to my words, O LORD, consider my meditation.
2 Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God: for unto thee will I pray.
3 My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O LORD; in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up.
4 For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness: neither shall evil dwell with thee.
5 The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all workers of iniquity.
6 Thou shalt destroy them that speak leasing: the LORD will abhor the bloody and deceitful man.
7 But as for me, I will come into thy house in the multitude of thy mercy: and in thy fear will I worship toward thy holy temple.
8 Lead me, O LORD, in thy righteousness because of mine enemies; make thy way straight before my face.
9 For there is no faithfulness in their mouth; their inward part is very wickedness; their throat is an open sepulchre; they flatter with their tongue.
10 Destroy thou them, O God; let them fall by their own counsels; cast them out in the multitude of their transgressions; for they have rebelled against thee.
11 But let all those that put their trust in thee rejoice: let them ever shout for joy, because thou defendest them: let them also that love thy name be joyful in thee.
12 For thou, LORD, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield.
Ongumbiro yondjamo

1 Muhona, puratena kongumbiro yandje,

2 Puratena kondjuriro yandje yombatero,

Ami me kumbu kove Muhona.

4 Orondu kaove Ndjambi ngu u norutjato mouvi;

6 Ove u yandeka ovanavizeze avehe,

9 Ovanavita na ami kave hungire ouatjiri;

Omambo wawo omanavineya nomapope,

10 Ve pangura nu u ve vere, Ndjambi!
Ngave yandekwe i omeripura

Ve ramba moukarepo woye mena

11 Nungwari avehe mbe

Yama avehe mbe ku suvera

12 Ove, Muhona, u sera ondaya

ondjingonekero yoye i ve tjizikiza otja oruvao.
