10 Zwana, ndodana yami, wemukele amazwi ami, leminyaka yempilo izakuba minengi kuwe.
Ka capa, kak awi ngai nawh kym lah; Cawhtaw na hqing kum pung khqoet khqoet kaw.

Qei nawh taw, a vena koeh cet; mangtaak nawh loen taak.
16 Ngoba kabalali uba bengenzanga okubi; lobuthongo babo buyasuswa uba bengakhubekisanga muntu.
Kut a mamik thlak khui taw am ip thai kawm usaw, thlang ak khanawh seetnaak a mi sai hlan khui taw mik am kuu kaw.
17 Ngoba badla isinkwa senkohlakalo, banathe iwayini lobudlwangudlwangu.

Ak hukhqi ham hqingnaak na awm nawh, a mi pumsa ham sadingnaak na awm hy.
23 Gcina inhliziyo yakho phezu kwakho konke okungagcinwa, ngoba kuvela kikho ukuphuma kwempilo.
Ak chang boeih ang lakawh nak kawlung ce doen, hqingnaak ak cawnnaak ni.

Nam khaawh awihche koeh cawn sak nawh, thlang koeh thailat na.
25 Amehlo akho kawakhangele phambili, lenkophe zakho ziqonde phambi kwakho.
Na mik ing hailam dan nawh, ak leekna na hai lam toek.
26 Linganisa umkhondo wonyawo lwakho, ukuze zonke indlela zakho ziqine.
Na khaw ham lamtlak ce chei nawh, na lampyi boeih ce cak sak.
27 Ungaphambukeli ngakwesokunene kumbe ngakwesokhohlo; uphambule unyawo lwakho ebubini.
Nak tang ben mai aw, nak cawng ben mai awi koeh pleng; seetnaak awhkawng na khaw ce thoeih.
