Shoka Kalunga te shi pula
Episalomi lyaDavid.
1 Omuwa, olye ta pitikilwa okuya motempeli yoye?
Olye ta pitikilwa okugalikanena kondundu yoye ondjapuki Sion?
2 Omuntu ngoka ha vulika kuKalunga miinima ayihe
noha longo shoka shu uka;
ngo ha popi oshili ye ke na omakoto,
3 naango ihaa lundile mukwawo.
Oye iha ningile ookuume ke uuwinayi
ye iha hokola aashiinda ye.
4 Oye ha dhini mboka ye ethiwa kuKalunga,
ihe oha simaneke mboka haa vulika kOmuwa.
Oha gwanitha shoka e shi uvaneka
nonando oshi mu fale muudhigu.
5 Iimaliwa ye ihe yi pulile ontanitho
ye iha taamba oombumbo,
opo a pe uusama ngoka inaa yona sha.
Omuntu ngoka ha ningi ngeyi,
ota ka kala aluhe e li nawa.
What God Requires
1 Lord, who may enter your Temple?
Who may worship on Zion, your sacred hill?
2 Those who obey God in everything
and always do what is right,
whose words are true and sincere,
3 and who do not slander others.
They do no wrong to their friends
nor spread rumors about their neighbors.
4 They despise those whom God rejects,
but honor those who obey the Lord.
They always do what they promise,
no matter how much it may cost.
5 They make loans without charging interest
and cannot be bribed to testify against the innocent.
Whoever does these things will always be secure.
