1Ngono ngwenu yetji nditjo tjinolebgwa ndi Yahwe,

2Unowoti upalama vula, ndowobe nawe,

Ha upalama moto awutowokupisa,

3Ngoti ndimi Yahwe, Ndzimu uwo,

Ndodusa Egipiti se tjidzutunulo tjitjo,

4Se udika kundili kakale ukudziwa,

5Usitje, ngoti ndinawe,
ndowodusa bana babo kudwa ku bhezhuba,
ndowobakubunganya
ne kudwa ku golombedzo.
6Ku bunandzwa ndowoti,
‘Ubazhise.’ Burwa ndowogudwa ati,
Usibabhatilile. Zhisani bakololo bangu kudwa kule,
ne bakololokadzi kudwa ku ndzibo we shango.
7Mmwe ne mmwe wandakadana nge zina,
wandakabumbila gudzo langu,
wandakabumba kakale athama.”
8Zhisani bathu ibaba bana mesho basingabone,
bana zebe koga abatohwa.
9Kubunganyani zwitjaba zose,

Ndiupi mu bali wakaleba ikoku,
katibudza kutji kale zwithu zwe kutanga?
Ngabazhise batendeki babo kutendeka kuti banolebesa,
kuti bamwe bahwe bati, “Ku malebeswa.”
10Imwi mu batendeki bangu,
kojalo Yahwe ne nlanda wangu wandakashalula,
kuti muzibe mugalemoyo mu ndili ne kuhwisisa kuti ndi iye.
Akuna ndzimu mmwe wakatongo bepo mbeli kwangu,
naiko akuna unowobepo shule kwangu.
11Imi, ndimi Yahwe,

12Ndakakuleba kusathu kukabepo atjidza azibisa
pakabe kusina ndzimu we butaya pakati kwenyu,

13Ndi Ndzimu ne kuyenda mbeli ndowogala ndili iwo.
Akuna ungasunungula umu maboko angu,
tjandinothama akuna ungatjibgwiliza shule.

“Ndowotuma ngwa kunobhayana ne Bhabhiloni nge kwenyu,
ndowovuna panda dze mikoba,
Bakhaladiya mima yabo inowobe ye tjililo.
15Ndimi Yahwe, ndi wenyu Wakayengemala,

16Yahwe banolebeleka,
ibo banozhula zila mu gungwa,
banozhula zijana mu vula dzina masimba,
17ibo banokunda koloyi dze ngwa ne mbizi,
ngwa ne babhayani, banowila pasi,

kobe kwapela ku bali,
bakanga luvone gwadzimiwa.
18“Musialakane zwithu zwe kutanga,
kene kukumbula zwithu zwa ntolo.
19Bonani, ndabe pejo ngothama tjithu tjitshwa,
ngono tjoshingikala kale,

Ndowozhula zila mu tjilambanyika
ne njizi mu shango yakawoma.
20Phuka dze shango dzowondikudza,
phungubgwe ne fukumudzi,
ngoti ndodzipa vula mu tjilambanyika,
ne njizi mu shango yakawoma,
kupa bathu bangu, bashalugwa bangu, vula kungwa.
21Bathu bandakazwibumbigwa,
kuita kuti bandikudze.
22“Koga amuzondidana, iwe Jakubo,
koga ndakamunyadza, iwe Iziraela.
23Amuzondizhisila pkhwizi dze zwibhayilo zwinopisiwa,
kene kuli kundikudza nge zwipo zwenyu.
Andizomulemesela nge zwipo zwe mathunde,
kene kumunyadza nge motsha.
24Amuzotongo nditengela pkhwe inozipa nge mari,
kene mukandigutsha nge mafuta e zwipo zwenyu.
Koga makandikhiga ntolo we zwibi zwenyu,
makandinyadza nge milandu yenyu.
25Imi, ndimi tshumula matjinyo enyu nge kwangu,
kakale andingakumbule zwibi zwenyu.
26Ngati yendeni ku lubazhe,
munondilakidza nlandu wangu.
Bikani ndebo yenyu,
ndizo mutendekegwe kuti makatambunuka.
27Tate benyu be kutanga bakatjinya,
balebelekeli benyu bakandipandukila.
28Ndizo wali ndolingila pasi
batungamili be bugalo gwakayengemala,
ngono ndowothama kuti Jakubo akolomodziwe,
Iziraela unowosapugwa.
