Otyiimbo tya Salomau
Nemwovolele, anehemuvasi.+
2 Mandyipinduka-po, ndyikemwoovole mepunda-umbo
Ndyikemutale momatapalo, no ponopalasa.
Ndyikaovole ou ndyihole.*
Nemwovola, hemuvasile.
3 Nahonyena novayungi vepunda-mbo. Andyivepulu andyiti:+
‘Kamwamwene-ale omuwa wange ndyihole?’*
4 Neveti vala lambee,
Ndyikati ñgana, omuwa wange ndyihole* oyou.
Andyimukakatela, anehemuyeke,
Andyimutwala meumbo lya mee.+
Andyimunyingiya meumbo lya una wokwankhutula.
5 Ame ndyimuti anei, vahikwena vo mo Selusalei,
Tukailei onomphundya mohika, tukailei ononkhonkha:
Mwahanthyindei ndyihande omukwendye, mwene tyiye atyike komutima wange.”+
6 “Otyipuka tyina tyikatuka omukundu-kundu moluhandya tyilinga ngomwihi, otyityi,
Tyiivala okwanika nawa ngootyo ngombao yomila no yolimbanu,
Tyiivala okwanika onombao vehole okulandesa?”+
7 “Kamutalei vakwe! Naina hatyipundi tya Salomau.
Tyaongelelwa novalume 60,
Ovalume vamwe ova Isilayeli vatunda povakwa-vita.+
8 Aveho vamaneka omitunga,
Aveho valongeswa, vetyivila okulwa,
Tyati umwe ou wamaneka omutunga wae, ou wamaneka wae,
Vamaneka, kounthiki vemuyakulile.”
10 Onomphandyi mbatyo, o mbopalata,
Omu tyiliyekelwa omu, tyalingwa noolu.
Apa tyipumphamenwa, tyatungwa nomulinya wotyivala tyonkhula.
Mokati tyahiwaiswa nawa, tyehiwa,
Vahiwiswa-mo ovahikwena vo mo Selusalei.”
