Mbatsha dzakalingisana ne Jerusalema
1 Yee mme wee wapalala iwe Ariele,
Ariele nzi nkulu kwakabe kugala Dafite!
Paphidzani gole nge limwe gole,
mizano ngaidwilile ngotebeledzana kwayo.
2 Ndowolonga Ariele mu buyendasi,
kowobepo tjililo ne makuwo,
ngono kundili unowosalaunga Ariele.
3 Ndowokukomba nge ngwa kukupoteleka,
ndowobaka thungamakole kukupoteleka
ngono ndowolingisana nawe nge ngwa.
4 Unowolashigwa pasi ngono unowolebeleka kudwa mu mavu,
matama awo anowohwika edwa pasi mu hwuluba,
hwi lilo lowohwika lidwa pasi linga le ipuku
lidwa mu mavu linyebezela kudwa mu hwuluba.
5 Koga mibunga ye zwita zwizo inowonga hwulubana koga,
ne mibunga ye bakabangalala ikanga bunye gunowuluka gupinda,
ee kowoshingikala kulibilidza mu tjibakana.
6 Yahwe Masimbawose banowokukumba
nge misindo ye vula nenge kutengenyeka kwe shango ne zhoba hwulu ne matutu ne
phepo yakabangalala ne nthuto we moto unolobesa.
7 Ngono mibunga ye njudzi dzose idzedzi dzinogwa ne Ariele,
idzedzi dzinonginilila ne mu matizhilo ayo dziukomba,
dzowonga mawoloto kene mbono busiku.
8 Naiko kowonga nthu una zhala ewolota eja,
koga eti emuka ewana kusina tjimu ntumbu
kene se nthu una nyota ewolota engwa vula,
koga emuka ewana etimbama nge nyota, ana nyota,
kowojalo mu mibunga yose ye njudzi
dzinogwa ne Dombo le Ziyoni.
9 Kaabalani kakale mutjename,
muzwithame mapofu kuti musibone.
Laladzani koga musingalaladzisiwe nge nkumbi we zhambi,
tshatsharikani koga musinga ikhwe nge busukwa.
10 Yahwe bazhisa mu muli hwope dzinolema,
bazhalila mesho enyu imwi balebesambeli
bakwididza misholo yenyu imwi munobona zwimbeli.
11 Mbono ya ikoku kose kumuli yanga matama e lukwalo gwakazhaligwa. Ha begupa mmwe ungabala bebe beti, “Bala ikoku,” unowoti, “Andingabale ngoti gwakazhaligwa.” 12 Kakale ha begupa usingake kabala beti, “Bala ikoku,” unowoti, “Anditoziba bala.”
13 She bakati,
“Ngoti bathu ibaba banosedzela kundili nge milomo yabo,
banondilumbidza nge milomo yabo,
koga mimoyo yabo ikule nami,
kundithigamila kwabo
kwakabakigwa mu milayo yabanodiyiwa nge bathu.
14 Ndizo ndowopapha ashinga zwinotjenamisa nge bathu ibaba,
zwinodzidzimusa zwikakaabadza.
Butjenjedu gwe batjenjedu babo gowopela,
mano ebana mano anowopela.”
15 Yee mme wee mapalala imwi munonginila mukatikati
kwe pakasumbikala musumbikila Yahwe ndongoloso dzenyu,
moshinga nshingo wenyu mu zhalima mube muti,
“Ndiani unotibona? Ndiani unoziba ngekwedu?”
16 Mopitulanya zwithu.
Apa mbumbi unobumba nge ntapkhwi ungabhakhwa se ntapkhwi kene?
Tjabumbiwa apa tjingadwa mbumbi watjo tjiti,
“Aazondibumba,”
kene tjabumbiwa tjingati ngekwe wakatjibumba,
“Akuna tjaanoziba kene?”
17 Mu tjibakana tjitukununu, apa Lebanoni aingabe nnda una mavu akakola,
nnda iwoyu we mavu akakola ube utogwa se ishaka kene?
18 Mu zhuba ilelo bhubuzebe lowohwa matama amu lukwalo,
mesho e bhofu anowodwa mu ludandi ne mu zhalima kabona.
19 Bana moyo minyolo banowowana kushatha kakale muna Yahwe,
bashayi banowoshatha muna Wakayengemala we Iziraela.
20 Ntshambilidzi unowobe asitjipo,
n'dadili kowobe kwapela nge kukwe,
bose bakazwimisila kutjinya banowobulawa,
21 banoti ngoleba bakathama kuti nthu mmwe abong'we nlandu
pa lubazhe koga iye asina nlandu,
banolalila ntendeki be nteya nge matama,
bepa butendeki gwe manyepkhwa betjebela nthu wakalulwama, Ndzimu unowobalobesa.
22 Ndizo wali Yahwe ibo bakadzutunula Abhurahama
bakati ku nsha wa Jakubo,
“Jakubo aangatjabhakhwe nge shoni kakale,
buso gugwe agungashobe kakale.
23 Banowoti be bona bana babo
iyo mishingo ye maboko angu pakati kwabo,
banowoyengemadza zina langu,
banowoyengemadza Wakayengemala wa Jakubo,
ngono banowoteta Ndzimu we Iziraela.
24 Ibabo bakabhuda mu zila mu meya, banowowana hwisiso,
banong'ong'ola banowoamutjila ndayo.”
