Nsumuinu 31:1-31
31 Mêyi a mukalenge Lemuele, mukenji wa bujitu uvua mamuende mufile bua kumulongesha:+
2 Nkuambile tshinyi, wewe muananyi wa balume,Nkuambile tshinyi, wewe muana wa munda muanyi,Nkuambile tshinyi, wewe muana wa mitshipu yanyi?+
3 Kufidi bukole buebe kudi bakaji,+Anyi kulondi njila idi ibutula bakalenge.+
4 Lemuele wanyi, ki mbikumbane bua bakalenge,Ki mbikumbane bua bakalenge kunuabu mvinyoAnyi bua bamfumu kuamba ne: “Maluvu anyi adi penyi?”+
5 Bua bobu kabanu ne balua kupua mikenji muoyoNe kunyanga manême a bapuekele.
6 Pesha bantu badi bakeba kufua maluvu makole+Ne pesha badi ne kanyinganyinga kakole* mvinyo.+
7 Banue ne bapue bupele buabu muoyo;Kabavuluki kabidi ntatu yabu nansha.
8 Akuila bantu badi kabayi mua kuakula;Akula bua manême a bonso badi bajimina.+
9 Akuila bantu ne lumbuluisha ne buakane;Akula bua manême* a bapuekele ne bapele.+
א [Alefe]
10 Udi mua kupeta mukaji wa tshitembu* nnganyi?+
Mushinga wende ngua bungi kupita wa mabue a koraye.*
ב [Bete]
11 Bayende udi umueyemena ne muoyo mujima,Ne yeye kena upangila tshintu nansha tshimue tshia mushinga.
ג [Gimele]
12 Yeye udi ufuta bayende malu mimpe, kena umufuta malu mabi,Matuku onso a muoyo wende.
ד [Dalete]
13 Udi upeta miosa ya mikoko ne line;Udi usanka bua kuenza mudimu ne bianza biende.+
ה [He]
14 Yeye udi bu mazuwa a ngenda mushinga,+Ulua ne biakudia biende ufuma nabi kule.
ו [Waw]
15 Yeye udi ujuka patshidi panshi pafiike,Upesha ba mu nzubu muende biakudiaNe upesha bena mudimu bende bakaji biabu bitupa.+
ז [Zayine]
16 Udi utuma meji ende ku budimi ne udi ubusumba;Udi udima budimi bua tumuma tua mvinyo ku midimu yende mikole.*
ח [Hete]
17 Udi udilongolola bua kuenza mudimu mukole,*+Ne udi ukolesha maboko ende.
ט [Tete]
18 Udi umona ne: mushinga wende udi ne makasa;Muendu wende kawena ujima butuku.
י [Yode]
19 Bianza biende bidi bikuata tshinu tshia buanda,Bianza biende bidi bikuata lusambu.*+
כ [Kafe]
20 Yeye udi woluela mupuekele tshianza tshiende,Ne udi ubuluila bapele bianza biende.+
ל [Lamede]
21 Kena ne buôwa bua neje bua ba mu nzubu muende,Bualu ba mu nzubu muende bonso mbavuale bilamba bidi bifila luya.*
מ [Meme]
22 Udi udienzela bilamba biende bia pa bulalu.
Bilamba biende mbia line ne miosa mikunzubile ya mikoko.
נ [Nune]
23 Bayende mmumanyike bimpe ku biibi bia tshimenga,+Muaba udiye usomba munkatshi mua bakulu ba mu ditunga.
ס [Sameke]
24 Udi wenza bilamba bia line,* ubipanaNe udi usumbisha bangenda mushinga mikaba.
ע [Ayine]
25 Mmuvuale bukole ne butumbi,Ne udi wela meji bua matuku atshilualua muikale ne muoyo mukole.*
פ [Pe]
26 Udi ubulula mukana muende ne meji;+Mukenji wa buimpe* udi pa ludimi luende.
צ [Tesade]
27 Udi utangila mudimu wa ba mu nzubu muende,Ne kena udia biakudia bia bufuba.+
ק [Kofe]
28 Bana bende badi bajuka ne bamujingila diakalenga;Bayende udi ujuka, udi umutumbisha.
ר [Leshe]
29 Kudi bakaji ba tshitembu* ba bungi,Kadi wewe, wewe udi mubapite buonso buabu.
ש [Shine]
30 Bulengele budi mua kudinga, ne buimpe bua mpala budi mua kuikala bua tshitupa tshîpi,*+Kadi mukaji udi utshina Yehowa neatumbishibue.+
ת [Taw]
31 Umupeshe difutu dia bidiye wenza,*+Ne midimu yende imutumbishe ku biibi bia tshimenga.+
