Okuyuulukwa Kalunga
Episalomi lyaDavid sho a li mombuga yaJudea
1 Kalunga, ongoye Kalunga kandje,
otandi ku kongo.
Onde ku yuulukwa nda mana mo;
ngaashi evi lya kukuta lya sa oluteni,
osho omwenyo gwandje gwe ku yuulukwa.
2 Nandi ku mone u li muuyapuki woye;
nandi tale oonkondo nesimano lyoye.
3 Okusilwa ohenda kungoye oku vulile ndje okukala nomufudho,
notandi ke ku simaneka.
4 Onda hala oku ku hambelela, manga ndi na omwenyo;
megalikano otandi yeluthile omaako gandje kungoye.
5 Omwenyo gwandje otagu kuta ongaashi moshituthi;
omilungu nokana kandje otake ku tanga.
6 Otandi ku dhimbulukwa mokukala kwandje;
otandi ku dhiladhila miikako yuusiku,
7 oshoka ongoye ekwatho lyandje,
momuzile gwomawawa goye
otandi imbi nokunyanyukwa.
8 Otandi ku dhama;
oshikaha shoye osha gamena ndje.
9 Mbo taa kongo omwenyo gwandje,
otaa ka kulukila meso.
10 Otaa ka lika po kegongamwele
notaa ka ninga oondya dhoombandje.
11 Ihe omukwaniilwa ota ka nyanyukwa,
oshoka Kalunga ote mu pe esindano.
Ayehe mbo haa uvaneke medhina lyaKalunga,
otaa ke mu hambelela,
ihe omakana gaafundja otaga ka mwenekwa.
A Psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah.
1 O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is;
2 To see thy power and thy glory, so as I have seen thee in the sanctuary.
3 Because thy lovingkindness is better than life, my lips shall praise thee.
4 Thus will I bless thee while I live: I will lift up my hands in thy name.
5 My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips:
6 When I remember thee upon my bed, and meditate on thee in the night watches.
7 Because thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice.
8 My soul followeth hard after thee: thy right hand upholdeth me.
9 But those that seek my soul, to destroy it , shall go into the lower parts of the earth.
10 They shall fall by the sword: they shall be a portion for foxes.
11 But the king shall rejoice in God; every one that sweareth by him shall glory: but the mouth of them that speak lies shall be stopped.
