1 Eka Zofar ja-Namath nodwoko ni,
2 “Weche miwacho mathothgi bende nyalo kadho nono mak odwoki adier?
Bende inyalo kwani kaka ngʼama kare adier,
ngʼat ma wuoyo mangʼenyni?
3 Wechegi manonogo bende nyalo hoyo ji malingʼ?
Iparo ni onge ngʼama nyalo kweri kijaro ji kamano?
4 Ere gima omiyo iwachone Nyasaye ni, ‘An giyie makare
kendo aler e nyimi?’
5 To mano kaka daher
mondo Nyasaye odwoki kuom wachno,
6 mondo omi onyisi yore mopondo mag rieko,
nimar rieko madier nigi rachne gi berne.
To ngʼe ni Nyasaye wiye osewil kata mana gi richogi moko.
7 “Bende inyalo ngʼeyo weche mopondo mag Nyasaye?
Bende in gi teko mar ngʼeyo kuma duongʼ mar Jehova Nyasaye Maratego ogikie?
8 Giboyo moyombo polo, koro in to ditimie angʼo?
Gitut moloyo bur liel; koro in to ditimie angʼo?
9 Bor margi oyombo bor mar piny
kendo lach margi oloyo lach mar nam.
10 “Ka onyalo biro sani mi otweyi e od twech
kendo ochok bura mayali, en ngʼa ma disire?
11 Adier, oneno joma wuondore;
kendo koneno richo, to donge ondiko piny?
12 Ka nyathi punda inyalo nywol ka muol,
to kara ngʼama ofuwo bende nyalo bedo mariek.
13 “Kata kamano ka ichiworine
kendo imiye chunyi,
14 bende ka iweyo timo richo
kendo ingʼado ni richo moro amora ok bed e dalani,
15 eka inyalo bedo thuolo kionge gi wichkuot
kendo ibiro chungʼ motegno ka ionge luoro.
16 Adier wiyi nowil gi chandruokni,
Mana ka koth mochwe ochok ma wich osewilgo.
17 Ngimani nobed maler moloyo ler mar odiechiengʼ,
kendo mudho nochalni gi ler mokinyi.
18 Inidag gi kwe maonge luoro, nikech geno ma in-go,
kendo Nyasaye noriti mamiyi yweyo.
19 Ininind kionge gi luoro,
kendo ji mangʼeny nomany konyruok kuomi.
20 To wenge joma timbegi richo biro jony
kendo yore mag tony biro lalnegi;
to geno margi biro lal nono.”
