1 Phahi Ayubu wajibu achiamba,
2 “Hata vivi rero ncherelalamika kpwa sonono,
3 Ningemanya Mlungu aphahikanapho,
4 Ningephirika lau rangu mbereze
5 Ningemanya go ndigokujibuni,
6 Dze, angehumira uwezowe mkpwulu kulumbana nami?
7 Phapho mutu asiye na ila angelumbana naye,
8 Lola, náphiya mlairo wa dzuwa, na kala kako,
9 Namuendza ariphokala kazini ko vurini, ela siyamuona,
10 Ela iye anamanya yo njira niigbwirayo,
11 Chigulu changu chikalunga nyagoze,
12 Sidzangbwericha kugbwira malagizo ga madomoge,
13 Ela kabadilika ngʼo, ni ani awezaye kushindana naye?
14 Mana andakamilisha go arigonipangira,
15 Kpwa hivyo naogopha niimapho mbereze;
16 Mlungu akahenda moyo wangu ufwe purungire,
17 ela sinyamala kpwa sababu ya ro jiza,
