Kalunga Omupangeliawike
Episalomi lyaAsaf
1 Kalunga ota ningi oompangu megulu;
ota tseyitha epangulo mokati kookalunga.
2 Inamu pangula we paugoyoki;
omukeenakalunga, inamu mu ningila pondhipi.
3 Popileni oohepele noothigwa,
uthileni aadhinwa naakwanaluhepo pauyuuki.
4 Ya yulululii mo miikaha yaakolokoshi.
5 “One aagoya ngiini ne mwaa na oondunge!
Omwa yonana thilu,
nuuyuuki owa kana ko kombanda yevi.
6 Ngame onda ti: ‘One ookalunga;
ne amuhe aana yaanguka gwokombandambanda.’
7 Ihe otamu ka sa ngaashi naanaa aantu;
omufudho gweni otagu ka hula po
ngaashi gwomuvalekele kehe.”
8 Kalunga, thikama, u pangule uuyuni auhe;
iigwana ayihe oyoye.
God the Supreme Ruler
1 God presides in the heavenly council;
in the assembly of the gods he gives his decision:
2 “You must stop judging unjustly;
you must no longer be partial to the wicked!
3 Defend the rights of the poor and the orphans;
be fair to the needy and the helpless.
4 Rescue them from the power of evil people.
5 “How ignorant you are! How stupid!
You are completely corrupt,
and justice has disappeared from the world.
6 ‘You are gods,’ I said;
‘all of you are children of the Most High.’
7 But you will die like mortals;
your life will end like that of any prince.”
8 Come, O God, and rule the world;
all the nations are yours.
