Osho opala okuhambelela Kalunga ketu;

3 Ota aludha mboka ye ehamekwa koomwenyo,
nota manga iilalo yawo.
4 Otu utha omwaalu gwoonyothi

5 Omuwa gwetu oye omunene nomunankondo;

6 Ota yambula po aaishonopeki,

7 Imbileni Omuwa omahambelelo;

8 Eyalelo ote li siikile niikogo;

nota kokitha omwiidhi komalundu.
9 Ota palutha iimuna,

10 Omuwa ina panda nande oonkondo dhuukambe

11 ihe okwa hokwa mboka haye mu tila noku mu simaneka
naamboka haa inekele esilohenda lye.
12 Jerusalem, simaneka Omuwa!

13 Oye ta koleke omiyelo dhoye

14 Ota gamene oongamba dhoye
note ku kutitha niikulya iitoye.
15 Ota gandja omalombwelo kombanda yevi,
noohapu dhe otadhi uvika mbala.
16 Ota lokitha olumi lwa fa omahegele gomongwa
nota gundu ombambi ngaashi omutoko.
17 Otu umbu oompawe ngaashi omamanya.
Olye ta vulu okwiitakeka uutalala wombambi?
18 Ihe kelombwelo lye olumi otalu hemuka;
ngele ta pepitha ombepo ompyu,
omeya otaga tameke oku kunguluka.
19 Ota tseyithile Jakob oohapu dhe
nota hololele Israel iipango nomautho ge.
20 Shika ine shi ningila iigwana yilwe,
mbyoka inaayi tseya iipango ye.
Halleluja!
Sing and Praise the Lord
1 Shout praises to the Lord!
Our God is kind,
and it is right and good
to sing praises to him.
2 The Lord rebuilds Jerusalem
and brings the people of Israel
back home again.
3 He renews our hopes
and heals our bodies.
4 He decided how many stars
there would be in the sky
and gave each one a name.
5 Our Lord is great and powerful!
He understands everything.
6 The Lord helps the oppressed,
but he smears the wicked
in the dirt.
7 Celebrate and sing!
Play your harps
for the Lord our God.
8 He fills the sky with clouds
and sends rain to the earth,
so that the hills
will be green with grass.
9 He provides food for cattle
and for the young ravens,
when they cry out.
10 The Lord doesn't care about
the strength of horses
or powerful armies.
11 The Lord is pleased only
with those who worship him
and trust his love.
12 Everyone in Jerusalem,
come and praise
the Lord your God!
13 He makes your city gates strong
and blesses your people.
14 God lets you live in peace,
and he gives you
the very best wheat.
15 As soon as God speaks,
the earth obeys.
16 He covers the ground with snow
like a blanket of wool,
and he scatters frost
like ashes on the ground.
17 God sends down hailstones
like chips of rocks.
Who can stand the cold?
18 At his command the ice melts,
the wind blows,
and streams begin to flow.
19 God gave his laws and teachings
to the descendants of Jacob,
the nation of Israel.
20 But he has not given his laws
to any other nation.
Shout praises to the Lord!
