Yobu Wávutula Tombula Ndinga Yandi

Mu kudya ndefi mu khumbu ya Nzambi yandi-meni, wuna wákatula masonga mandi, Yobu kázolaku kwikila ni banduku bandi benina ba masonga; kakála yi bukheti bwandi tii yi kuna kafwa. Amana yandi-meni wásamuna ndambu ya mutu wa mbi: mbongu kakúndikisa amana mutu wa masonga wakayivwata, pfunzi ya phipha, yi nzu yakonda ngolu.

Kapitulu 27.

Amana Yobu wávutula yandika zonza, wuzimbudi: «Bwosu Nzambi kenina moya, wuna wákatula masonga mama, amana Mukwa Ngolu Zoosu, wuna wákhitula moya wama mu khadi, bwosu mwela wama kenina mwena meni, amana Kitembu kya Tata wetu kenina mu mazunu mama, malebu mama mázonzaku luvunu, amana lulaka lwama lusamunaku bukamvi. Yiyukanaku kosu ni lwenina ba masonga; tii yi kuna yafwa, yisisaku bukheti bwama. Yikakama mu masonga mama, yisisaku mawu; mbundu yama yinfundilaku mu kilumbu kimosi kya luzingu lwama.

«Mbeni wama kakala hanga mutu wa mbi, amana wuna wisi tombuka kwena meni kakala hanga mutu wakonda masonga. Mukuma, biki kivuvu kya mutu wakonda kinzambi, tangwa kazengwa, tangwa Nzambi kakatula luzingu lwandi? Nzambi kayuka kindanda kyandi, tangwa phasi zikamuyisila? Kakasephila mwena Mukwa Ngolu Zoosu? Kátela Nzambi mu matangwa moosu? Yílulonga mu kikuma kya koku kwa Nzambi; yiswekaku mana menina kwena Mukwa Ngolu Zoosu. Talenu, benu boosu lwámona byabina benu meni; mukuma biki lwisi zonza phandi za phamba za mutindu wawu? Yayi ndambu ya mutu wa mbi yituka kwena Nzambi, disongidila kizika kina batu ba khu batambula kwena Mukwa Ngolu Zoosu: Yuka ni bana bandi babaingi, bafwa ku mbedi ya phoku, amana butuka dyandi diyukutaku madya. Bana bandi bana bahuluka, kiphuphu kikabazika; amana bafwidi ba bawu badilaku. Yuka ni kalumbika phalata hanga fusyangeni, amana kalumbika miledi hanga tuma, kalumbika yawu, kaasi batu ba masonga bavwata myawu, amana batu bakonda sala mbi bakaba phalata. Wisi tunga nzu yandi hanga nzu ya mbubu, hanga kibuka kina tsinzidi katunga. Kaleka yi kimvwama, kaasi kalendaku leka bwabuna dyaka; kazibula mesu mandi, amana byosu bilubuki kedi. Mambu ma bweya makambwila hanga kithombu; mu phipha, pfunzi ya ngolu yikamunata. Pfunzi ya ku tsosu yikamutombula, amana walubuka kedi; yikamukatula mu kifulu kyandi. Yikadilosa kwena yandi konda kyadi; yandi wutina yi tswatsu mu ngolu zandi. Yikabula moku kwena yandi, amana yikamufiola yikamukatula mu kifulu kyandi.»
