Hata habhu Chapanga kabha ng'obhe kutali na kila yumoo ywetu. 28 Handa pakalongite mundu yumo,
‘Kiyaha mu ywombe, tungulama, tungutyanga, na kubhegha handa mutubheghiti
Na handa ahumbula miyimbo bhenu paalongelite,

29 Hinu, twenga tu bhana bha Chapanga, yinoghelwa ng'obhe kughuhwachila Ghuchapanga ghwake ghubha handa ling'omung'omu lya lihabha, ebu ngalabha ebu liganga lihongolitwe, agho mang'omu ng'omu ghangutendekehwa kwa utendehi ghwa anabhandu. 30 Pamakachu ghala gha ubhughabhugha Chapanga kakilitenda handa bhula kangubhona ng'obhe, peni hinu kanguakwilikiha bhandu bhoha kwoheli bhalipetule na kughuleka ulemwa. 31 Kiyaha kalibhika linjubha lya kuatosa bhandu bha milima hyoha kwa umaha kukindila kwa mundu yumu ywakanhaghulite. Kwa kya ywombe Chapanga kabhayimiha bhandu bhoha kwa kunhyuha Kilisito kuhuma kwa bhaahweghite.”
