Omwene ta findi ovatondi vaye

2 Eehamba dedu tadi fikama,

notava tu ondubo nOmwene nomuvaekwa waye.
3 Tava ti: “Tu tokauleni omapando avo,
fye tu liduleni omiya davo!”
4 Ou Omukali womeulu ote shi va yolele,
Omwene ote shi va ningile oshiyeele.
5 Ndele opo nee ote ke va hanyena mehandu,
nomokukeshuka kwaye ote ke va tilifa, ta ti:
6 “Aame tuu ou nda nangeka ohamba yange muSion
komhunda yange iyapuki.”
7 Onda hala okushiivifa omhangela yOmwene.
Oye a tya kwaame: “Oove Omona wange,

8 Ehela kwaame, ndele handi ku pe ovapaani

nominghulo dedu odoye.
9 Ove u noku va nyanyaula nodibo yoshivela,
ndele to va tataula ngaashi oshiyuma.”
10 Hano eehamba nye, paife pukulukeni,

12 Xupiteni Omona komilungu,

ndele tamu nyonauka mondjila yeni;
osheshi ehandu laye kali kwete kufuluka.
Ovanelao ovava aveshe have mu lineekele.
Omukwaniilwa omuhogololwa gwaKalunga

Aantu mbano otaa kondjitha shike ano?

nomukwaniilwa omuhogololwa gwe notaa ti:

9 Oto ke yi pangela noshikaha shoonkondo
e to yi tatagula ngiikangwa yeloya.”
10 Pukulukeni, ne aakwaniilwa;

Aanelago oomboka haa kongo egameno puye.
