Khombo dza Jerusalema
1 Khombo i ḓo wela

2 U tshi vhidzwa a wo ngo thetshelesa,

A wo ngo fulufhela Muṋe washu,
a wo ngo sendela tsini ha Mudzimu wawo.
3 Magota awo ndi ndau dzi vhombaho,

ḽa ḓi tsha ḽa wana a tshi kha ḓi ponda.
4 Vhaporofita vhawo vha a ḓihudza, vha na vhufhura.
Vhotshifhe vhawo vha kumadza hukhethwa,
vha pfuka mulayo.
5 Muṋe washu a re ngomu hawo
u ita zwi re zwone, ha khakhi.
Musi muṅwe na muṅwe ḽi tshi tsha
mulayo wawe u ḓi ima wo ralo,
a u pfukwi.
Naho zwo ralo vhatshinyi a vha shoni.
6Muṋe washu u ri,
“Ndi lozwa dzitshakha,
ndo wisa mitsheṱo yavho.
Ndo sia mikoto yavho i si na muthu,
a hu tshee na ane a fhira nga henefho.
Miḓi yavho yo fhalala,
a ho ngo sala muthu,
na muthihi zwawe.
7Ndo vhudza Jerusalema nda ri,
‘Vhukuma u ḓo nnyofha,
wa thetshelesa ndi tshi u laya!’
Zwa ralo vhudzulo havho a vhu nga phusukanywi,
na ṱhamu dzanga a dzi nga vhi khavho,
hone vho ḓi futelela u tshinya vha tshi ya
kha zwoṱhe zwe vha ita.”
8 Muṋe washu u ri,
“Zwino-ha nndavheleleni hu vhuye hu swike ḓuvha
ḽine nda ḓo takuwa nda sengisa dzitshakha.
Ndo elekanya u kuvhanganya dzitshakha na mivhuso
uri ndi shululele mbiti dzanga khavho,
mbiti dzanga dzoṱhe dzi ofhisaho.
Ḽifhasi ḽoṱhe ḽi ḓo swa nga mulilo wa mbiti dzanga.
9 “Ndi hone milomo ya tshakha ndi tshi ḓo i ṱanzwa tshika,
uri vhoṱhe vha rabele Nṋe,
vha ntshumele sa vhana vha munna.
10 Vhathu vhanga vho balanganaho vhane vha nnduvha,
vha ḓo nnḓisela nduvho
vha tshi bva seli ha milambo ya Kushu.
11 Musi wonoyo a ni tsha ḓo shona
ni tshi humbula zwoṱhe zwe na nkhakhela ngazwo,
ngauri vhaṱongi vhau vhoṱhe vha u ḓihudza
ndi ḓo vha ndo vha bvisa muḓini.
Thavhani yanga khethwa
a ni tsha ḓo dovha na ḓihudza.
12 Hone vhukati haṋu ndi ḓo sia
vhane vha ḓiṱukufhadza na vha no ḓinyadza;
vhone vha ḓo fulufhela dzina ḽanga.
13 Vhathu vha Israele vhane vha ḓo ponyoka lufu
a vha tsha ḓo khakhela muṅwe muthu,
a vha tsha ḓo zwifha,
na vhufhura a vhu tsha ḓo wanala milomoni yavho.
Vha ḓo nga sambi ḽine ḽa fula ḽa awela,
hu si na tshine tsha vha shushedza.”
Luimbo lwa dakalo
14 Hee iwe ṅwananyana Tsioni,
fhululedza!
Inwi vhathu vha Israele,
ṱavhani mukosi!
Hee iwe ṅwananyana Jerusalema,
takala u pembele nga mbilu yau yoṱhe!
15Muṋe washu o humisa ṱhamu yau, o thatha maswina au.
Muṋe washu Khosi ya Israele u na iwe,
a hu tshee na khombo ine wa nga i ofha.
16 Musi wonoyo vha ḓo vhudza Jerusalema vha ri,
“Iwe Tsioni, u songo ofha tshithu, u songo kulea nungo,
17Muṋe washu Mudzimu wau u na iwe,
ndi muhali a u tshidzaho.
U ḓo u takalela zwihulu,
u ḓo u khuthadza nga lufuno lwawe,
u ḓo u pembelela nga nyimbo,
18 zwa nga musi wa vhuṱambo.”
Muṋe washu u ri,
“Vho nyadziwaho,
vho thubiwaho shangoni ḽa havho,
vhe vha pfuluwa vho shona,
ndi ḓo vha kuvhanganya.
19 Tshifhinga tshenetsho u ḓo vhona ndi tshi lifhedza
vhane vha u kandeledza zwino;
ndi ḓo lamulela zwihole,
nda kuvhanganya vho balanganaho.
Ndi ḓo ita uri vha khoḓiwe vha vhe na bvumo
mashangoni oṱhe he vha vha vha tshi shoniswa.
20 Musi tshifhinga tshenetsho tshi tshi swika,
ndi ḓo vha Mutshimbidzi waṋu,
ndi ḓo kuvhanganya vhathu vhau.
Ndi ḓo ita uri ni khoḓiwe ni vhe na bvumo
vhukati ha vhathu vhoṱhe vha ḽifhasi
musi ndi tshi ita uri zwi dovhe zwi ni nakele
ni tshi zwi vhona nga aṋu maṱo.”
