Yoba

13 “Eña, mesu ami anamoni yuma yejimiyi,

Matu ami anatiyi nawa aneluki muyinatalishi.

 2 Yuma yimweluka, ninami nayiluka;

Himunambadikiku.

 3 Ilaña ami halwami, nateli kutondahu kuhosha naWañovu Jejima yomweni;

Natondihu kutwala muloña wami kudi Nzambi.+

 4 Ilaña enu munakunlamba makudi;

Wejima wenu mudi ayimbuki amukunkulwayi.+

 5 Neyi mwamwenahu hohu,

Chadi kumwekesha nawu mudi namaana.+

 6 Mwani, tiyililenu chinnakuhosha,

Nawa shenu maana kukulembelela kwami.

 7 Komana mukumuhoshelaku Nzambi mazu atama,

Nawa mukumuhoshelaku mazu akutwamba?

 8 Komana mukwikala kukabadi kindi,

Mukumuhakwilaku Nzambi walala?

10 Chakadi nikujina, wukuyizuwila

Neyi munakumwekesha chaambu mukuswamujoka.+

11 Komana kulema kwindi kukuyichiinisha wanyi

Nawa woma wakumuchiina hiwukuyikwataku?

12 Mazu enu amaana* hiyishimu yamawuti;

Mazu enu akudihakwilaku* amwovu neyi nkebu yandambu.

14 Muloñadi chinnakushila wumi wami muwubanji*

Nikusenda wumi wami mumakasa ami?

15 Hela chakwila wukunjaha, nukuhembelela;+

Nukuhakwilaku muloña wami* kumesu indi.

16 Kuhiñahu wukwikala chamwinu chami,+

Muloña kwosi muntu watama* wunateli kwinza kudi yenaku.+

17 Tiyililenu nakanañachima mazu ami;

Shenu maana kumazu innakuhosha.

18 Tiyenu, nadiloñeshi dehi kutwala muloña wami kuchota;

Neluki nami nukuyiña.

20 Eyi Nzambi, nyinki yuma yiyedi hohu,

Kulonda nibuli kudisweka kudi eyi:

21 Fumishaku chikasa cheyi chalema hadi ami,

Nawa bayi wutwalekahu kuntiyisha womaku.+

22 Tambikaku nawa nukwakula,

Hela nleki nihoshi, nawa wuñakuli.

24 Muloñadi chiwanswekelaña chamesu eyi+

Nakummona neyi nidi chilumbu cheyi?+

25 Komana wukukeña kutiyisha woma ifu dinakuleloka

Hela kukumpisha matahu oma?

26 Muloña wunatwalekihu kusoneka nyiloña yinakuntwikawu,

Nawa wunakumbabesha hanshidi jami jakuwansi.

27 Wunashi nyendu yami mumpompa,

Watalaña mwejima munayaña,

Nawa welukaña mwejima mwadataña nyendu yami.

28 Dichi muntu* watokaña neyi chuma chatoka,

Neyi chakuvwala chinadiwu kudi tunzembula.
