Naghwe ka ng’ubama bae kumpfuka ayula iyokulongosa, utende ghanoghile, naye katsokutunya. 4 Kwaapfila yeye komsang’anila Imulungu kwaajili yako. Lekeni ung’atenda ghehile, umpfuke, mana kodaha ghendo kukuhigha. Yeye komsang’anila Imulungu, kowalangusa maya ye Imulungu awala iwotenda ghehile. 5 Apfo kwobamighwa kuwategheletsa iwatawala, si kwaapfila kwopfuka kuhighighwa ne Imulungu, ila kwaapfila ghumoyo wako womanya chaubamighwa kutenda.
