¹Pakubuda kwaIsiraeri Imba yaJakove ichibuda pakati pavanhu vakanga vanorumwe rurimi;

¹ Waato kaŋ Israyla fun Misira laabo ra, Yakuba dumo fun mebarawey ra,

²Judha akaitwa imba yake tsvene, Nalsiraeri ushe hwake.

² Yahuda ciya Rabbi se nangoray hanante, Israyla ciya a mayray hari.

³Gungwa rakazviona, rikatiza; Joridhani rwakadzokera shure.

³ Teeko n'a guna ka zuru, Urdun* mo bare ka ye banda,

⁴Makomo akapembera samakondobwe, Nezvikomo samakwayana.

⁴ Tondi kuukey soobay ka sar sanda feeji gaaruyaŋ cine, Tudu izey mo sanda feeji izeyaŋ cine.

⁵Unonzweiko iwe gungwa, zvaunotiza iwe? Newe Joridhani, zvaunodzokera shure?

⁵ Ya teeko, ifo ka du nin kaŋ se ni zuru? Da ni mo, ya Urdun, kaŋ ni ye da banda?

⁶nemwi makomo, zvamunopembera samakondobwe; nemwi zvikomo, samakwayana?

⁶ Araŋ mo, ya tondi kuukey, Kaŋ araŋ go ga sar sanda feeji gaaruyaŋ cine? Araŋ mo, ya tudu izey, sanda feeji izeyaŋ cine?

⁷Bvunda iwe pasi, pamberi paShe, Pamberi paMwari waJakove;

⁷ Ya nin ndunnya, ma jijiri Irikoy jine, Ma jijiri Yakuba Irikoyo jine,

⁸Iye akashandura dombo, rikava dziva remvura,

⁸ Nga kaŋ na tondi daari bare ka ciya bangu hari, Captu tondi mo ciya hari zuru.
