neendjila dange adishe ou di shii;
4 osheshi fimbo etumbulo inali uya kelaka lange,
Omwene, Ove we li koneka.
5 Konima nokomesho owa dingilila nge,

6 Eshiivo eli, olo oixuna kwaame,

7 Omhepo yoye, ohandi i henukile peni?

8 Ngeno ondi londe keulu, oko u li,

11 nonande ngeno ondi tye:
Omulaulu wa laula fokofoko, nau tuvike nge,

12 hano opo nomulaulu inau laula pwoove,

nomulaulu ngeno kwoove ouyelele.
13 Osheshi Oove ou omushiti weefiyo dange,
owa dutila nge medimo lameme.
14 Ohandi ku pandula, eshi nda tungwa nda tungikika;
oilonga yoye oya longekeka,
nomwenyo wange otau shi shiiva nawa.
15 Oukipa vange kava li ve ku holekwa,

onda mewa moule wedu nounyakwa.
16 Omesho oye okwa li taa shipununa nge,

17 Ndelenee kwaame, oidiladilwa yoye, Kalunga,

Oitulwakumwe yayo aishe, oihapu unenenene!
18 Ngeno ondi hetekele oku i vala:
omuvalu wayo, ou dule womawe ehekedu;
ngeenge handi penduka, natango opo ndi li pwoove.
19 Akutu, Kalunga ngeno u dipae ovakolokoshi,
Ove u kandule pwaame ovakauli vonyanga,
20 ava have ku lundakanene nai,
nedina loye otave li tumbulile mowii.
21 Ava ovatondi voye, havo nandi tonde yo?
Ame mbela ndiha nyonyodolifwe kovakondjifi voye?
22 Ohandi va tondo noutondwe wefyo;
ondi wete, ovo ovatondi vange.
23 Kalunga, konakone nge,
u koneke omutima wange!
Yeleke nge, u dilakane omadiladilo ange,
24 opo u mone, ngeenge ondi li mondjila yepukifo,
Ove u endife nge mondjila,
ei tai twala moukwaalushe.
