Etekopo lyaNinive
1 Ninive, oto ka ponokelwa!
Ehanagulo olye ku adha!
Indeni komahala gokwiipopila!
Langeleni ondjila!
Ilongekidhileni olugodhi!
2 (Omuwa okwa hala okugalula esimano lyaIsrael, ngaashi lya li nale,
manga aatondi ye inaaye li mu yuga.)
3 Aakwiita aatondi oya humbata iikandekitho iitiligane
noya zala omizalo dha fa ombinzi.
Otaa ilongekidhile eponokelo!
Omatembakwiita gawo otaga geta ga fa omulilo!
Uukambe wawo tau nuka omalondo!
4 Omatembakwiita otaga mbolokota momapandaanda,
otaga kolokota momahalandjandja goshilando.
Otaga adhima ngomalaka gomulilo
notage ende ga fa olwaadhi.
5 Aambala otaa hiywa ya gongale;
otaa tantala, sho taa endelele yu uka komeho.
Aaponokeli otaa matukile kekuma
e taa yelutha oshikandekitho
okushiga oshikumunithi shekuma.
6 Omiyelo dhopomulonga dha mwakuka;
uuwa wa shoshomekwa kuumbanda.
7 Omunyekadhi ota kwatwa omupika;
aadhike ye taa lili ya fa oonguti
notayi ikwata pontulo koluhodhi.
8 Aantu otaa gwaya mo muNinive
ongomeya taga panuka mondama.
Otaku igidhwa: “Kankameni! Thikameni!”
Ihe kape na ngoka ta galuka.
9 Yugeni oshisiliveli!
Hakaneni oshingoli!
Oshilando oshu udha omaliko!
10 Ninive otashi hanagulwa po,
tashi thigwa po, tashi mbugalekwa!
Omitima otadhi kukuta kuumbanda;
oongolo otadhi tifauka,
oonkondo dha kana;
iipala otayi pembe.
11 Oshilando oshi li peni ngashingeyi,
shoka sha li sha fa ekololo lyoonime,
ehala mpoka oonime oongundjuka dha paluthilwa,
mpoka oondumentunime noonyalinime dha wapa okweenda
nuunimegona wadho wu na okukala megameno?
12 Onime oya dhipaga oshihakanwa shayo
noye shi topolele oonkwawo
nuunimegona wayo;
oyu udhitha ekololo lyayo nonyama ya tudhwagulwa.
13 Omuwa Omupangelinkondoawike ota ti: “Ngame onda ningi omutondi gweni! Omatembakwiita geni otandi ga fike po! Aakwiita yeni otaa ka dhipagelwa miita, notandi kutha po shaa shoka mwe shi kutha yalwe. Oonkondo dheni itadhi ku uvika we muuyuni.”
