¹Waxyaalahaas ka dib waxaan arkay malaa'ig kale oo samada ka soo degaysa, waxayna lahayd amar weyn; oo dhulkuna wuxuu la iftiimay dhalaalkeedii.

²Iɛeggeḍ s ṣṣut ɛlayen yenna : Teɣli ! Teɣli temdint-nni tameqqrant n Babilun ! Tuɣal ț-țamezduɣt n ccwaṭen, d amkan anda țnejmaɛen leṛwaḥ imeɛfan, anda xeddmen leɛcuc-nsen leṭyuṛ iɛefnen.

²Markaasay ku dhawaaqday cod xoog weyn, oo waxay tidhi, Waxaa dhacday oo dhacday Baabuloontii weynayd, oo waxay noqotay hoygii shaydaanyada, iyo rugtii jinni kasta oo nijaas ah, iyo rugtii shimbir kasta oo nijaas ah oo la neceb yahay.

³Waayo, quruumihii oo dhammu waxay ku dhaceen khamrigii cadhada sinadeeda; oo boqorradii dhulka oo dhammuna iyaday ka sinaysteen, oo baayacmushtariyadii dunidu waxay ku taajireen xooggii barwaaqadeeda.

⁴Oo haddana waxaan maqlay cod kale oo samada ka dhawaaqaya oo leh, Dadkaygiiyow, iyada ka soo baxa, yeydnan dembiyadeeda la qaybsane, oo aydnaan belaayooyinkeeda heline;

⁵Axaṭer ddnubat-is ɛeddan tilas wwḍen ɣer igenni, amek ara yețțu Sidi Ṛebbi lbaṭel i texdem.

⁵waayo, dembiyadeedii waxay gaadheen xataa samada, oo Ilaahna wuu xusuustay xaqdarradeedii:

⁶Xedmet as akken i wen-txeddem, ɛețțbet-eț akteṛ wayen i kkun-tɛețțeb, taqbuct nni n lemṛaṛ i tessew i wiyaḍ, ɛemmṛet-as-ț d lemṛaṛ yugaren win tessew nețțat.

⁶Iyada wax u siiya sidii ay wax idiin siisay oo kale, oo weliba u sii labanlaaba sida shuqulkeedu ahaa; oo koobkii ay wax idiinku qastay, wax ugu qasa labanlaab.

⁷Akken tefka i yiman-is ccan, tɛac di lerbaḥ, ara s-tesseṛwum leɛtab d leḥzen, axaṭer teqqaṛ : Aql-iyi am ugellid, ur lliɣ ț-țaǧǧalt, ur țissineɣ leḥzen.

⁷Oo intii ay isfaanisay iyo intii ay raaxaysatay oo kale, waxaad iyada siisaan caddibaad iyo murug; waayo, iyadu waxay qalbigeeda iska tidhaahdaa, Anigoo boqorad ah ayaan iska fadhiyaa, oo carmalna ma ihi, oo sinaba murug u arki maayo.

⁸Sidaas daraaddeed maalin keliya waxaa iyada u iman doona belaayooyinkeeda, kuwaas oo ah dhimasho iyo murug iyo abaar; oo iyada kulligeed waxaa lagu gubi doonaa dab, waayo, Rabbiga Ilaaha ah oo iyada xukumay waa xoog badan yahay.

⁹Igelliden n ddunit meṛṛa i gɛacen deg-s di zzhu d zzna, ad țrun, ad meǧden fell-as, m'ara walin dexxan i gețțalin si tmes iceɛlen deg-s.

⁹Oo boqorradii dunida oo iyada ka sinaystay oo la raaxaystay ayaa u ooyi doona oo u barooran doona markii ay arkaan qiiqa gubashadeeda,

¹⁰Imi uggaden a ten-taweḍ txeṣṣart, bedden mebɛid qqaṛen : A tawaɣit-im, a tawaɣit-im a tamdint n Babilun, tamdint tameqqrant yesɛan tazmert, deg yiwet n ssaɛa kan yeɣli-d fell-am lɛiqab.

¹⁴Oo midhihii naftaadu ay damacday way kaa tageen, oo waxyaalihii fiicanaa oo dhalaalayay oo dhammuna way kaa baabbe'een, oo mar dambena lama heli doono.

¹⁵Oo baayacmushtariyadii alaabtaas lahaa oo iyada taajir ku noqday, waxay meel fog la istaagi doonaan cabsida caddibaaddeeda iyagoo ooyaya oo barooranaya;

¹⁷Waayo, maalka saas u badanu saacad keliya buu ku baabba'ay. Oo waxaa meel fog istaagay naakhude kasta, iyo mid kasta oo dhoofa, iyo ragga baxriyiinta ah, iyo in alla inta badda ka faa'iidaysata,

¹⁹Oo iyana intay madaxa boodh ku shubteen ayay qayliyeen oo ooyeen oo baroorteen, oo waxay yidhaahdeen, Waxaa hoogtay oo hoogtay magaaladii weynayd oo kulli inta badda doonniyaha ku lahu ay dhexdeeda kaga taajireen maalkeedii, waayo, iyadii saacad keliya bay baabba'day.

²¹Markaasaa malaa'ig xoog weynu waxay kor u qaadatay dhagax u eg dhagaxshiid weyn, oo waxay ku dhex tuurtay badda, oo waxay tidhi, Magaalada weyn oo Baabuloon sidaas oo kale xoog baa hoos loogu tuuri doonaa, oo hadda ka dibna lama heli doono.
