18 Akaambo kakuti Cilundu ca Ziyoni caba matongo;+ bamwaaba lino baleendeenda alincico.
19 Pele yebo O Jehova, ulikkede acuuno cako cabwami lyoonse mane kukabe kutamani.
Cuuno cako cabwami cinooliko mumazyalani oonse.+
20 Ino nkaambo nzi ncootuluba mane kukabe kutamani akutusiya kwaciindi cilamfwu boobu?+

22 Nokuba boobo, yebo totuyandi pe, watukakilalyo.
Wazumanana kutunyemena kapati.+
