2 “Seniutwile litaba zeñata zecwalo.
Kaufelaa mina mu baomba-ombi babakataza!+
3 Mukafeza lili kubulela manzwi asina tuso?*
Kiñi sesi mibulelisa cwalo?
4 Ni na, nenika kona kubulela sina mina.
Hane mukaipumana mwa muinelo onili ku ona,Nenika kona kubulela manzwi akolwisa a kumilwanisaNi kunyunga toho yaka kabakala mina.+
5 Kono mwa sibaka sa kueza cwalo, nenika mitiisa ka manzwi azwa mwa mulomo waka,Mi manzwi aka aomba-omba naaka miimulula.+
6 Hanibulela, butuku bwaka habufukuzehi,+Mi niha nikatuhela kubulela, kana butuku bwaka bukafukuzeha?
7 Kono cwale Mulimu unikatalisize;+Ushandauzi ba ndu yaka* kaufela.
8 Hape waniswala, mi taba yeo ifetuhile bupaki,Mi kuñwañuluka kwaka kwanilwanisa mi kupaka fapilaa ka.
9 Buhali bwahae bunipazauzi, mi unibulukela sikoto kwa pilu.+
Unikweceza meeno.
Sila saka sinitaba ka meeto asona.+
10 Baatamisize milomo yabona kunilwanisa,+Mi banishubuzi ka kunibakaula kwa malama;Batile ka buñata kuto nilwanisa.+
11 Mulimu unifa mwa mazoho a bashimani,Mi uniyumbela mwa mazoho a babamaswe.+
12 Neniiketile, kono anipyata;+Aniswala fa ngele mi anituba;Kihona alibisa masho ahae ku na.
13 Bakunupi bahae ba masho banipotolohile;+Unitaba kwa lipio+ mi haaniutweli butuku;Usululela nyoko yaka fafasi.
14 Unipunya masuba-suba;Umatela ku na sina ndwalume kuto nilwanisa.
15 Nilukile masila a saka kuli niapese litalo laka,+Mi nikwahezi likute* laka mwa liluli.+
16 Pata yaka ifubelisizwe ki kulila,+Mi fa liñobyo zaka kuinzi lififi lelituna,*
17 Nihaike kuli mazoho aka haasika holofaza mutuMi tapelo yaka ikenile.
18 Wena lifasi, usike wakwahela mali aka!+
Mi kulila kwaka kusike kwafumana mapumulelo!
19 Nihaiba ka nako ya cwale, paki yaka i mwa mahalimu;Yakona kunipakela u kwahalimu.
20 Balikani baka banisheununa+Mi meeto aka alotisa miyoko* fapilaa Mulimu.+
21 Kube ni yakaatula mwahalaa mutu ni Mulimu,Sina mwakona kuatulela mutu mwahalaa mutu yomuñwi ni wahabo.+
22 Kakuli lilimo zesiyezi ki zenyinyani,Mi nikazamaya mwa nzila yeka niisa konisike nayo kuta.+
