Nkunga 97:1-12
97 Yave okitukidi se Ntinu!+
Yambula e nza yamona e kiese.+
Yambula e sanga yayingi yayangalala.+
2 Matuti ye tombe kinzietele;+O unsongi ye ziku i nkubilw’a kunda kiandi.+
3 O tiya tumvitidi+Tuyokele mbeni zandi muna ndambu zawonso.+
4 E nsemo miandi mitemese o ntoto;E ntoto vava umwene mio, uzakamene.+
5 E miongo mizelokele nze sasala kia wiki vana vena Yave,+Vana vena o Mfumu a nza yawonso.
6 E zulu disamunanga unsongi wandi,E nkangu miawonso mimwene o nkembo andi.+
7 Awonso besadilanga teke yavalwa, yambula bafusuka e nsoni,+Awana bekuyisananga mu kuma kia nzambi zau zakondwa mfunu.+
Numfukamena,* yeno nzambi zawonso.+
8 E Zione owidi, oyangalele;+E mbanza za Yuda zimwene* kieseMuna kuma kia nzengo zaku, e Yave.+
9 Kadi ngeye, e Yave, u Mpungu-nene mu nza yawonso;Watundalala vana ntandu a nzambi zawonso.+
10 Oyeno nuzolanga Yave, numenga o bi.+
Olundanga mioyo mia minkwikizi miandi;+Okubavuluzanga vana moko ma* yimpumbulu.+
11 O ntemo utemene muna ansongi+Ye kiese muna akwa ntima miansongi.
12 Nuyangalela muna Yave, e yeno ansongi,Nuvana matondo muna nkumbu andi avauka.*
