1 Omuwa, owa kala nokusila evi lyetu ohenda;
owa mwenyekulula aantu yoye Aaisraeli.
2 Owa dhimi po oondjo dhawo

3 Owe etha oku ya geela
nowa loteke ondjahi yoye.
4 Kalunga, omuhupithi gwetu,

5 Oto kala we tu geela sigo aluhe?
Oto lelepeke ondjahi yoye, yi adhe omaluvalo agehe?
6 Tu mwenyeka ishewe,

7 Omuwa, tu ulukila ohole yoye yashili;

12 Omuwa ota ka gandja shoka oshiwanawa,

13 Uuyuuki otau ka tetekela Omuwa
notau mu longekidhile ondjila.
A Prayer for the Nation's Welfare
1 Lord, you have been merciful to your land;
you have made Israel prosperous again.
2 You have forgiven your people's sins
and pardoned all their wrongs.
3 You stopped being angry with them
and held back your furious rage.
4 Bring us back, O God our savior,
and stop being displeased with us!
5 Will you be angry with us forever?
Will your anger never cease?
6 Make us strong again,
and we, your people, will praise you.
7 Show us your constant love, O Lord,
and give us your saving help.
8 I am listening to what the Lord God is saying;
he promises peace to us, his own people,
if we do not go back to our foolish ways.
9 Surely he is ready to save those who honor him,
and his saving presence will remain in our land.
10 Love and faithfulness will meet;
righteousness and peace will embrace.
11 Human loyalty will reach up from the earth,
and God's righteousness will look down from heaven.
12 The Lord will make us prosperous,
and our land will produce rich harvests.
13 Righteousness will go before the Lord
and prepare the path for him.
