Okudjuulukwa Kalunga
Epsalome laDavid, eshi a li mombuwa yaJuda.
1 Kalunga Oove Kalunga kange,
ongula inene ohandi ku kongo;
omwenyo wange we ku fila enota;
nolutu lange ole ku hala medu likukutu
la fya oluteni lihe nomeva.
2 Osho ngaha onda li mouyapuki woye,
nde ku talatala,
ndi tale eenghono doye noshinge shoye,
3 Osheshi ouwanghenda woye ouwa,
u dule okukalamwenyo;
omilungu dange nadi ku tange.
4 Osho onda hala ndi ku hambelele,
fimbo ndi li po,
ame ndi yelule omaoko ange medina loye.
5 Omwenyo wange otau palulwa,
wa fa tau li omungo nomaadi;
nokanya kange otake ku pandula,
nomilungu di nenyakuko,
6 moku ku dimbulukwa momutala wange,
noku ku diladila momanangelo oufiku.
7 Osheshi Oove ekwafo lange,
nomomudidimbe womavava oye
ohandi nyakukwa.
8 Omwenyo wange owa dama mwoove;
eke loye lokolulyo otali pameke nge.
9 Ndelenee tava kongo omwenyo wange
nokulietela ngaha ehanauno,
otava i medu moule mwi.
10 Otava ka yandjwa komukonda wa twa;
otava ekelwashi,
va ninge eendja douvandje.
11 Ndelenee ohamba otai hafele Kalunga,
keshe tuu ou ta ane medina layo,
ne litye, ye omunelao;
osheshi omakanya ovanaipupulu
otaa ka mwenekwa.
A Psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah.
1 O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is;
2 To see thy power and thy glory, so as I have seen thee in the sanctuary.
3 Because thy lovingkindness is better than life, my lips shall praise thee.
4 Thus will I bless thee while I live: I will lift up my hands in thy name.
5 My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips:
6 When I remember thee upon my bed, and meditate on thee in the night watches.
7 Because thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice.
8 My soul followeth hard after thee: thy right hand upholdeth me.
9 But those that seek my soul, to destroy it , shall go into the lower parts of the earth.
10 They shall fall by the sword: they shall be a portion for foxes.
11 But the king shall rejoice in God; every one that sweareth by him shall glory: but the mouth of them that speak lies shall be stopped.
