Khosi ya Tsioni a i tsha dzula hone naa?”
Muṋe washu a tshi fhindula u ri,
“Ndi mini vha tshi nṱunga

20Vhathu vha ṱavha mukosi vha ri,
“Khaṋo yo fhira, tshilimo tsho fhela,
hone a ri athu tshidzwa.”
21Mbilu yanga yo pwashekana

22Giliada a hu tshee na mushonga naa?
A hu tshee na ṅanga naa?
Hufha mbonzhe dza vhathu vha hashu dzi sa laxwi?
