3 Omuwa ota lombwele Israel ta ti:
“Onda hunganeke nale mbyoka tayi ka ningwa;

4 Onda tseya kutya ngoye omutangalali,

5 Onde ku hunganekele nale onakuyiwa yoye,
nda tomona iiningwanima, manga inaayi ningwa,
opo waa tye, iimenka yoye niiyelekela yoye oye yi eta po.
6 “Ayihe nde yi popile, oya gwanithwa.
Zimina ashike kutya omahunganeko gandje oge li mondjila.
Ngashingeyi otandi ku lombwele iinima iipe tayi ke ya,

7 Ongashingeyi owala tandi yi longo,

Ngele nani oya ningilwe, oto vulu okutya owe yi tseya nale.
8 Ondi shi shi kutya ngoye ku shi omwiinekelwa,

Omolwasho ino uva iinima mbika nale,
omolwasho kaku na nando ohapu yimwe ya yile momakutsi goye.
9 “Ongame omutalanteni omolwedhina lyandje mwene.
Opo aantu ya pandule ndje,
otandi kankeke ondjahi yandje.
Onde yi lotitha, ndaaye ku hanagule po.
10 Onde ku yeleke momulilo gwomahepeko,
ongoshisiliveli tashi hemuninwa montelekelo.
Ihe onda dhimbulula kutya ngoye ogwowala nani.
11 Shoka tandi shi ningi,

Itandi ka etha nando, edhina lyandje li shekwe,

Kores, omuwiliki a hogololwa kOmuwa
12 “Pulakena ndje, oluvalo lwaJakob,

Ongame Kalunga, omutango nomuhugunini,

13 Oshikaha shandje osha dhike evi,

14 “One amuhe gongaleni, ne mu pulakene!
Oku na tuu kalunga, ngoka a hunganeke kutya
omuntu ngoka nda hogolola, ota ka homona Babilon?
Ota ka ninga shoka nda hala e shi ninge.
15 Ongame awike nda popi nonde mu ithana;

16 Ngashingeyi hedheni kungame, mu uve shoka tandi ti:
‘Okuza ketameko inandi popya meholamo.
Oko nda li okuza kethimbo ndyoka mbika tayi ningwa.’ ”
(Ngashingeyi Omuwa Omupangeliawike okwa tumu ndje pamwe nOmbepo ye.)
Shoka Kalunga a nunina Israel
17 Kalunga kaIsrael omuyapuki,
Omuwa omukulili gwoye ota ti:
“Ongame Omuwa Kalunga koye,
ngoka tii ku longele shoka she ku opalela
noku ku ulukila ondjila u na okweenda nayo.
18 Ando to pulakene shili iipango yandje,
andola omayambeko otage ku kungulukile ga fa omulonga tagu tondoka omeya,

19 Oluvalo lwoye otalu indjipala lwa fa omawe gehekevi,
naamwoye ongoomuma tadhi nyenge okuyalulwa.
Edhina lyawo itali ka kana,
itandi ke ya hanagula po.”
Eimbilo lyokutembuka muBabilon
20 Pitii mo muBabilon,

“Omuwa a hupitha oshigwana she Israel!”
21 Omuwa sho e enditha aantu ye

Okwe ya kuthile omeya memanya:
okwa panda emanya, omeya noga tondoka mo.
22 Omuwa ota ti:
“Aakaanakalunga kaye na nando ombili.”
