Kalunga ta ka tokola iigwana
1 Omuwa ota ti:
“Pethimbo ndyoka otandi ka galulila Juda naJerusalem elago lyawo.
2 Otandi ka gongela iigwana ayihe
e tandi yi eta kOlusilu lwaJehosafat.
Nkwiyaka otandi ke yi pangulila ayihe mbyoka ye yi ningile aantu yandje.
Oya halakanithile Aaisraeli miilongo yaapagani
noya topola evi lyandje Israel.
3 Oyu umbu oshihogololitho,
yu uthile ngoka ta ka pewa oonkwatwa.
Oya landitha po aamati naakadhona muupika,
opo ya fute oohonda noya mone omaviinu.
4 “Otamu kambadhala okuningila ndje shike, Tiro, Sidon nomikunda adhihe dhAafilisti? Otamu kambadhala, mu futile ndje sha? Ngele osho, otandi ke mu futila mbala. 5 Omwa kutha po oshisiliveli noshingoli shandje nomwa fala uuyamba wandje mootempeli dheni. 6 Omwa fala aantu yaJuda naJerusalem kokule nevi lyawo yene nomwe ya landitha po kAagreka. 7 Ngashingeyi otandi ke ya kutha mo momahala ngoka mwe ya landitha po. Otandi ke mu ninga shoka mwe ya ningile. 8 Otandi ka landitha po aana yeni aamati naakadhona koshigwana shaJuda; otaye ke ya landitha po kokule kAasaba. Ongame Omuwa nde dhi tya.
9 “Tseyithileni shika mokati kiigwana:
‘Ilongekidhileni iita;
hiyeni omatanga geni;
gongeleni aakwiita ayehe, mu katuke!
10 Hambululeni omatemo giipululo yeni,
ga ninge omagongamwele
niimwitho yeni, yi ninge omagonga.
Nokuli omukatalume oku na okuya molugodhi.
11 Ne iigwana ayihe yopuushiinda,
endeleleni, mu ye mu gongale molusilu.’ ”
Omuwa, tuma etangakwiita lyoye, li yi ponokele.
12 “Iigwana oyi na okwiilongekidhila okuya kOlusilu lwaJehosafat.
Nkwiyaka ngame, Omuwa, otandi ka kuutumba,
ndi tokole iigwana ayihe yopuushiinda.
13 Oyo iiwinayi unene;
yi teyeni ya fa iilya pethimbo lyeteyo.
Yi hopoleni, ngaashi omandjembele
taga hopolelwa metemba lyokukolela mo oomviinu,
sigo omaviinu taga hunga.”
14 Omayuvi nomayuvi oye li mOlusilu lwetokolelo.
Omo moka esiku lyOmuwa tali ya mbala.
15 Etango nomwedhi otayi luudha,
noonyothi itadhi minikile we.
Kalunga ta ka yambeka aantu ye
16 Omuwa ota pumbu kondundu Sion;
ewi lye otali ndunduma muJerusalem;
evi newangandjo otayi kakama.
Ihe ota ka popila aantu ye.
17 “Nena, Israel, oto ka tseya kutya ongame Omuwa Kalunga keni.
Onda kala kuSion, ondundu yandje ondjapuki.
Jerusalem otashi ka ninga oshilando oshiyapuki;
aakwiilongo itaa ke shi lala we.
18 Pethimbo ndyoka oondundu otadhi ka siikilwa komiviinu,
niimuna otayi ka monika kiikulundundu ayihe;
otaku ka kala omeya gefundja momilonga adhihe dhaJuda.
Motempeli yOmuwa otamu zi omulonga tagu tutike Esilu lyomano.
19 “Egipiti ota ka ninga ombuga,
naEdom eputu alike,
oshoka oya ponokele evi lyaJuda
noya dhipaga aantu yalyo yaa na ndjo.
20-21 Otandi ka geya molwaamboka ya dhipagwa;
mbo ya yona, itandi ke ya hupitha.
Ihe Juda naJerusalem otayi ka kalwa sigo aluhe,
nangame Omuwa otandi ka kala kondundu Sion.”
