2“A monna o ka thusa Modimo?
Nnyaya,

3A o a re o kgatlha

fa o le yo o siameng?
A o a re o a mo thusa,

4A o a re ke ka ntlha ya
poifo-Modimo ya gago,
fa a go otla, a go sekisa?
5A ga ke re, bosula jwa gago

Le gona melato ya gago

6O tsere dipeeletso mo go

wa apola diaparo
tsa ba ba tlhokang.
7Yo o nyorilweng

8O a re: Naga ke ya monna

Motlotlegi o nna mo go yona!
9Batlholagadi o ba buseditse
kwa morago ba iphotlhere fela;
wa pšhwetla masiela mabogo.
10Ke ka moo o dikanyeditsweng
ke diru
le therego e go tshosa
ka tshoganyetso.
11A kampo ga o bone lefifi
le morwalela wa metsi
a a go khurumetsang?
12Modimo a ga o kwa godimo?
Bona dinaledi
tse di kwa godimodimo,
di kwa godimo jang!
13Mme wena o a re:
‘Modimo o itse eng?
A o ka atlhola o le kwa morago
ga bontsho jwa maru?’
14O a re: ‘Maru a o thibile matlho,
ga o bone!
O itsamaela mo tikologong
ya legodimo!’
15A o rata go tsaya tsela
ya bogologolo e baikepi
ba tsamaileng ka yona
16ba ba neng ba tlosiwa
pele ga sebaka,
ba tsewa ke morwalela wa metsi?
17Ke ba ba reileng Modimo ba re:
‘Tloga mo go rona!’
Gape ba re:
‘Mong-wa-thata-yotlhe
o ka re direlang?’
18Mme e ne e le ene yo o
tladitseng
matlo a bone tse di molemo!
– Kakanyo ya baikepi
e kgakala le nna! –
19Basiami ba a bona, ba a itumela;
ba ba se nang molato
ba a ba sotla ba re:
20‘Ruri, ba ba neng ba re tlhoile
ba nyeleditswe;
le tse ba di tlogetseng
di fisitswe ka molelo.’
21A ko o ithuse ka go tsalana nao,
o nne kagisong;
tlhogonolo e tla go tlela
ka go dira jalo.
22A ko o amogele thuto
e e tswang
mo molomong wa ona;
o bee mafoko a ona
mo pelong ya gago!
23Fa o boela kwa go
Mong-wa-thata-yotlhe,
fa o ikokobetsa o tlosa
tshiamololo
mo lapeng la gago;
24fa o latlhela gouta ya gago
leroleng le gouta ya Ofire
kwa mafikeng a melapo
25foo Mong-wa-thata-yotlhe
o tla nna gouta ya gago
le selefera e e phatsimang
mo go wena;
26ee, foo o tla itumelela
Mong-wa-thata-yotlhe,
o tsholeletsa Modimo sefatlhego.
27O tla rapela Modimo,
o tla go utlwa;
o tla dirafatsa maikano a gago.
28Fa o ikaelela sengwe,
o tla se kgona;
lesedi le tla phatsimela
ditsela tsa gago.
29Fa di ya kwa tlase, o tla re:
‘A ke tlhatloge!’
Modimo o tla thusa
yo o ikokobetsang.
30Ee, le yo o molato,
o tla mo pholosa;
a pholosiwa ka bophepa
jwa diatla tsa gago.”
