12  Phange jami, kuma Nzambi wa mi kwatela henda, nga mibhingi nga midyóndo, bhakulenu o mikutu yenu kala sata ikôla, yanda xikina Nzambi. Mu ku mubheza, mu bhezyenu ni kilunji kyoso. 2  Ki mwehele o mundu* yú ku mifunyisa, maji ehelenu Nzambi kulungulula o ilunji yenu, phala mu tongolole o vondadi ya Nzambi, yawabha, yatenena, i mu wabhela kyambote. 3  Kuma Nzambi wa ng’idikisa o ngalasa yê, ngi mitangela enu oso kuma ki mu xinganeke kwila mwala ni valolo yavulu. Maji xinganeke-nu mu ukexilu watokala, kala kyasoko o kixikanu kya mibhana* Nzambi. 4  Mukonda o mukutu wala ni idyandu yavulu, maji o ikalakalu ibhanga o idyandu, ki yene imoxi. 5  Kyene we kimoxi, sumbala twavulu, twala tu mukutu umoxi ngó mwa Kidistu. Maji kala o kidyandu kimoxi kyatokala ku mukutu, etu we twa ditokala mudyetu. 6  Etu enyoso bhukaxi ka ngalasa ya Nzambi, twala ni mauhete avulu kadifu. Mu kiki se twala ni uhete wa kutula o njimbu ya Nzambi, tu itule ni kixikanu ki twala nakyu. 7  Se twala ni uhete wa kukwatekesa, tukwatekese jinga. Se twala ni uhete wa kulonga, tulonge jinga. 8  Se uhete wetu wa kuswinisa,* tuswinise* jinga, se wa kubhana,* tubhane ni muxima woso. Woso wala ni ujitu wa kukala kupholo, a u bhange ni kuswina kwoso, woso ukwatela henda ku akwâ, abhange ni kusanguluka. 9  O henda yenu ikale ya kidi. Mu zembe o ima yayibha, mu di kwatenene ku ima yambote. 10  Dizodyenu mu dyenu kala mu jindandu. Dyangenu kuxila akwenu. 11  Kalakalenu ni kuswina, ki mukale mu imonya.* Ehelenu o nzumbi ikôla ku mibhangesa kufulujuka. Kalakalenu kala mu abhika a Jihova. 12  Kidyelelu kyenu ki mi sangulukise. Kolokotenu kyoso ki mu dibhana ni ibhidi. Kolokotenu mu kusamba. 13  Wanenu o ima i mwala na-yu ni jiphange jenu.* Mu zalela jinga akwenu. 14  Besowalenu yó a mi zukutisa, mu a besowala, kanenu kwa zwela kyayibha. 15  Sangulukenu kumoxi ni yó asanguluka. Dilenu kumoxi ni yó adila. 16  Xinganekenu akwenu kala ki mwene mu dixinganeka. Ki mu kale ni ukexilu wa kudizangeleka,* maji kalenu ni ukexilu wa kuditolesa. Ki mu dimone kwila, enu mwa betakota akwenu ndenge. 17  Kanenu kuvutwila athu oso phulu mu phulu. Sotenu kubhanga o ima yambote ku mesu a athu oso. 18  Bhangenu yoso i mwa tena, phala mu kale ku paze ni athu oso. 19  Jiphange jami ja kazola, kanenu kuvutwila phonzo, maji ehelenu Nzambi kubhanga kiki mu njinda yê. Mukonda o Mikanda Ikôla yambe: “Jihova wambe, ‘o phonzo ya ngi tokala eme, éme mwene nganda ivutwila.’” 20  Maji bhangenu kiki: “Se nguma yé wala ni nzala mu bhane kudya, se wala ni dinyota mubhane menya. Mu kubhanga kiki, eye wa mu mu tudila makala a wama kuthandu dya mútwe wê.”* 21  Kanenu kwehela o phulu ku mitolola, maji tololenu o phulu ni mbote.
