2“Mbese amagambo y'amakabya ntakwiriye gusubizwa?
Umuntu yatsindishirizwa n'uko ari imvuganyi?
3Cyangwa abantu bakwiriye gucecekeshwa no kwirata kwawe?
Igiheusuzuguranta wagukozaisoni?
4Kukouvugauti ‘Ibyo nigisha biratunganye,
Ndi intungane mu maso yawe.’
5Ariko icyampa Imana ikavuga,
Ikakubumburiraho iminwa yayo,
6Ikakwereka ibihishwe by'ubwenge,
Bukoreshauburyo bwinshi.
Nonehoumenye yuko Imana itaguhannye,
Nk'uko ibyaha byawe bikwiriye.
7“Mbese wabasha kugenzura Imanaukayimenya?
Wabasha kumenya Ishoborabyoseukarangiza?
8Biri hejuru nk'ijuru, wabigira ute?
Biri hasi kurutaikuzimu, wabimenya ute?
9Urugerorwabyo rusumba isi,
N'ubugaribwabyo burutainyanja.
10Iyo ihise igakinga,

Ni nde wabasha kuyibuza?
11Kuko itayobewe abantu b'ubusa,

17Kandiubugingo bwawe buzarabagirana kurusha amanywa y'ihangu,
Naho habaumwijima hazatambikaumuseke.

Kandi ntibazabona aho guhungira,
N'ibyiringiro byabo bizaba guhezaumwuka.”
