1 Muragowe mwebwe abidibamiye i Siyoni,

na mwebwe mwumva mutekaniwe ku musozi w’i Samariya,

mwebwe abaganwa b’ihanga riruta ayandi,

mwebwe abo Abisirayeli baja kwitura!

2 Nimugende mwirabire i Kalune;

muvuyeyo muje i Hamati-Raba igisagara gihambaye,

hanyuma mumanuke i Gati mu Bafilisitiya.

Mbega ivyo bisagara hari ico birusha ubwami bwanyu uko ari bubiri?

Mbega igihugu cabo kiraruta icanyu?

3 Mwanka kwemera ko umusi w’ivyago ushitse

ariko ibikorwa vyanyu bituma umusi w’urubanza ubegera kurusha.

4 Muryama ku buriri busharijwe n’amahembe y’inzovu

mukiseguza imisego myiza.

Mukirira inyama zoroshe z’imyagazi y’intama

n’inka zinuze.

5 Mwigenera indirimbo nka Dawidi

mukazicuraranga ku nanga zanyu.

6 Munywera umuvinyu mu bikombe bisesekaye

mukisiga ibimota neza, bihinguwe rwose,

ariko ntimubabazwa n’umusaka wa Yosefu.

7 Ni co gituma muzoba mu ba mbere mu bazojanwa ari inyagano;

imisi mikuru yanyu n’ukwinezereza kwanyu bizoshira.

8 Uhoraho Nyeninganji ararahiye, Uhoraho Imana Mushoboravyose avuze ati:

"Ndanka ubwibone bwa Yakobo

kandi nanka n’ingoro ziwe zikomeye;

nzotanga iki gisagara

n’ibiri muri co vyose."

9 Abantu cumi nibasigara mu nzu imwe, na bo nyene bazopfa. 10 Kandi incuti yabo izoza gusohora imivyimba ngo ituririrwe hanze izobaza uwuzoba yinyegeje ngaho iti: "Mbega hari uwundi muri kumwe?" Maze na we azomwishura agomba kurahira izina ry’Imana ati: "Oya na mba!" Azoca amwamira amubwire ati: "Reka, si umwanya wo gucisha mu kanwa izina ry’Uhoraho."

11 Kuko Uhoraho yabitegetse,

kandi azosangangura inzu nini ayigire ubunywenywe,

n’inzu ntoya ayigire nk’utuvunguka.

12 Mbega ifarasi iriruka ku rutare?

Hari uwurimisha inka ku kiyaga?

Ariko mwahinduye ubutungane ubumara

n’icamwa co kugororoka mwagihinduye umururazi,

13 yemwe abanezerezwa n’uko i Lo Debari hafashwe

mukavuga muti: "Mbega ntitwafatishije i Karunayimu inkomezi zacu?"

14 Kuko Uhoraho Imana Mushoboravyose avuze ati:

"Nzohagurutsa ihanga rizoza kugutera, yewe Isirayeli,

kandi rizokubabaza urugendo rwose

kuva i Lebo-Hamati gushika mu kiyaya c’i Araba."
