Masalamo

2 Mambo ka bisaka bya bantu o byazhingijila

Ne bantu o babena kunyinyita* na byambo byatutu?+

 2 Bamfumu ba pano pa ntanda betanchika

Ne babinemanga bepwizha* pamo+

Na kulengulula Yehoba ne mushingwa* wanji.+

 3 Babena kwamba’mba: “Twayai tuchibaule mashimbi abo

Kabiji tutaye ne mizhinge yabo!”

 4 Aye uji pa jitanda mwiulu ukebaseka;

Yehoba ukebakosamika.

 5 Pa kyokya kimye, aye ukebambila na bukaji

Ne kwibazakamisha na bukaji bwanji bukatampe,

 6 Ne kwamba’mba: “Amiwa naikajika mfumu wami+

Pa mutumba wami wazhila wa Ziona.”+

 7 Nsakwamba pa byafuukula Yehoba;

Wañambijile’mba: “Obewa wi mwanami;+

Lelo jino yami shobe.+

 8 Ndombe, ne amiwa nsakukupa bisaka bya bantu kwikala buswanyi bobe

Ne ntanda yonse kwikala bunonshi bobe.+

 9 Ukebalalaula na ndondo ya kyela kya kapotwe,+

Kabiji ukebasansakanya nobe kipe kya buchimba.”+

10 Onkao mambo, anweba bamfumu mweshai milangwe;

Anweba bamitonyi ba pano pa ntanda, swai kwimololako.*

11 Mwingijilainga Yehoba na moyo,

Ne kusangalala saka mumwakamwa.

12 Nemekai* mwana,+ kuchina’mba Lesa* wakemuzhingijila

Ne kuba’mba mubule kufwa,*+

Mambo bukaji bwanji bwakonsha kubuuka bukiji.
