Jenjedzo ngekwe bupongwe
1Nkololo wangu, bhulutana butjenjedu gwangu,
Teya zebe uhwe kuhwisisa kwangu,
2kutindizo ugale una njele,
ne milomo iyo itjengete luzibo.
3Ngobe milomo ye nkadzi we bamba inodotha butji,
ne ndebo iye inosodzoloka kupinda mafuta,
4koga mu bupelo unobaba se nshashanyama,
unopitsha se thumo linotjeka ntha dzose.
5Makumbo awe anoyenda ku lufu,
thambo dzidze dzotobela zila inoyenda ku gomba,
6aana hanya ne zila inoyenda ku butjilo,
zila dzidze dzakamoneleka koga ngono aatoziba nge kwako.
7Koga ngwenu, imwi bakololo, munditeedze,
kakale musithubukane ne matama e nlomo wangu.
8Muzanile kule kwe nkadzi wakajalo,
kakale musitongo yenda pejo ne nkoba we ng'umba iye,
9kuti musidwe mupa bamwe gudzo lenyu,
ne makole enyu kuna bana mimoyo mikukutu,
10kuti musidwe motolegwa masimba ne bataya
ne fumwa yenyu ingadwa ikanojiwa ne bapoga,
11kukoti mu bupelo gwe butjilo nthu ekogomela,
nyama ne mbili zwashakala,
12ekoti, “Ndakabe ndakabenga kulayiwa tjini,
ne moyo wangu wakalingila pasi kutjemegwa!
13Andizo teedza hwi le badiyi bangu,
kene kuteya zebe yangu ku balayi bangu.
14Ndakabe ndabepejo ne kuloba,
pakati kwe gubungano.”
15Ing'wa vula mu tshime lilo,
vula inodwilila mu tshime lilo woga.
16Apa misenya iyo ingawungila pamwe ne pamwe,
misenya ye vula mu dzizila kene?
17Ngaibe misenya inong'wiwa nawe koga,
usinga ishanganyila ne bataya.
18Tshime lilo ngali kombolegwe,
kakale ushathile nkadzi we buzhuzha gugo,
19se phala hadzi yakanaka ne ngululu hadzi mbuya.
Mazhamu awe ngaakugutshe nge shatho,
ugale wakagutshiwa ne ludo gugwe.
20Nkololo wangu, ini ungatogwa mazwiwo ne bamba wali
ube ushathisiwa nge kun'gumbatila?
21Ngobe zila dze nthu dzimu mesho a Yahwe,
ibo banobona zila dzidze dzose.
22Jinyo le nthu lombhatshila,
kakale unobhatshigwa mu mishingo iye ye bubi.
23Unobulawa nge kushaya kutjemegwa,
ngekwe bulengwe gugwe bukulu wakalashika.
