U tambula ha Jerusalema
1Yowee! Uḽa muḓi we wa vha wo ḓala vhathu,

Wo vha u muhulwane vhukati ha dzitshakha,

O vha e mufumakadzi vhukati ha mashango,

2Vhusiku u lila lu ṱungufhadzaho,

Kha vhafunwa vhawe vhoṱhe a hu na ane a mu fhumudza.
Khonani dzawe dzoṱhe dzo mu fheṱa;

3Vhathu vha Juda vho thubiwa vha tambudzwa vha shumiswa nga tshiṱuhu,

4Nḓila dzi yaho Tsioni dzo ṱungufhala,

5Maswina awe a vho mu vhusa;

Muṋe washu o mu ḓisela vhuṱungu

Vhana vhawe vho iswa vhuthubwani,

6Tsioni, musidzana wa lunako

Vhavhusi vhawe vha nga tholo dzi si na pfulo;
vho shavha mupandamedzi wavho nga u shaya nungo.
7Misi ya u ṱungufhadzwa na u tambudzwa
Jerusalema u elelwa lupfumo lwoṱhe

Zwiḽa vhana vhawe vha tshi wela zwanḓani zwa maswina,
ho vha hu si na ane a nga mu tikedze.
Maswina awe o mu sedza,
a sea zwe zwa mu wela.
8Jerusalema o tshinya zwihulu.
Zwenezwo zwa mu kumadza

Vhoṱhe vhe vha vha vha tshi mu hulisa vha vho mu nyadza
nge vha mu vhonela;

9O vha a songo elekanya zwa matshelo,

O wa lu ofhisaho;

“Yawee Muṋe washu, edzou sedza u ṱungufhadzwa hanga,

10Swina ḽo dzhia lupfumo lwawe lwoṱhe;

11Vhana vhawe vhoṱhe vha a gomela vha tshi ṱoḓa zwiḽiwa,

uri vha si fe tshoṱhe.
“Yawee Muṋe washu,

12“Inwi noṱhe ni no fhira henefha,

Edzonu livha-livha ni vhone.
Hu na u tambula hu no nga uhu hanga

13O wisa mulilo u tshi bva ṱaḓulu,
a u tsisela fhasi wa dzhena maramboni anga.
O ṱharamudza mambule a mpfasha milenzhe
a nṱanamisa.
O ita uri ndi sale ndi ndoṱhe,
nda ṱwa ndi tshi lwala.
14Zwivhi zwanga o zwi luka nga zwanḓa zwawe,
zwa vhofhekana zwa vha dzhogo;

Muṋe washu o nkhamula nungo

15Muṋe wa zwoṱhe o landula vhahali vhanga vhoṱhe;
o vhidza mmbi ya ḓa ya lwa na nṋe ya kuya vhaṱhanngana vhanga,
ya ḽa munyanya.
Muṋe wa zwoṱhe o sukekanya Juda musidzana wa lunako

16Ndi zwine nda lila, maṱo anga a bva miṱodzi.
A hu na a re tsini ane a nkhuthadza,

Vhana vhanga vho ṱovhowa, swina ḽo kunda.”
17Tsioni a ṱharamudza zwanḓa zwawe

Muṋe washu o rambela Jakopo maswina

Vha vhona Jerusalema a tshi nga musadzi

18“Muṋe washu u a fulufhedzea,
ngauri nṋe ndo nyadza zwe a amba.
Thetshelesani inwi tshakha dzoṱhe!
Edzonu vhona u tambula hanga.
Vhana vhanga,

19Ndo vhidzelela khonani dzanga,
hone vho nndaṱedza.
Vhotshifhe vhanga na magota anga

vha tshi khou ṱoḓa zwiḽiwa uri vha tshile.
20“Muṋe washu, edzou vhona uri

Ngomu hanga hu tou duga,
mbilu yanga i a vhavha;
ndo vha ḽishandukwa vhukuma.
Nnḓa pfumo ḽi a vhulaha,
ngomu nḓuni ndi lufu fhedzi.
21Vhathu vho pfa tshigomelo tshanga,
hone a hu na ane a nkhuthadza.
Maswina anga oṱhe o pfa uri zwo mmbifhela,
a pembelela zwe wa nnyita.
Ngavhe u tshi ḓisa ḓuvha ḽe wa ḽi ḓivhadza,
uri na vhone vha itwe zwe nṋe nda itwa.
22Ngavhe vhuvhi havho hoṱhe vhu tshi swika maṱoni au!
Vha lifhedze unga wo lifhedze nṋe nga vhuvhi hanga hoṱhe.
Zwigomelo zwanga ndi zwinzhi,
ndo kulea nungo.”
