1 Isra7eele asay

Gibxe biittafe kezida wode,

Yaaqoobe zereththay

allaga qaala haasayza biittafe

yeggidi bida wode,✝

2 Yuhuda asay Xoossas

geeshsha as gidides;

Isra7eele asaykka

izas haarettides.

3 Zo7o abbay hessa be7idi baqatides;

Yordaanoose shaafaykka

guye simmides.✝

4 Zumati dharsho mala guferettida;

zumbullatikka

dorsa laaqqa mala xikkida.

5 Abbazoo! Ne ays baqatadii?

Yordaanoose shaafazoo!

Ays guye simmadii?

6 Intteno zumatoo!

Dharsho mala ays guppidetii?

Intteno zumbullatoo!

Dorsa laaqqa mala ays xikkidetii?

7 Hanne biittayee! Godaa sinththan

Yaaqoobe Xoossa

sinththan kokkora.

8 Izi zaalla eele haath kessides;

wolqqama zaalla pultto haath kessides.✝
