19 Olw’obusungu bwa Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye
ensi eggiiridde ddala,
era n’abantu bali ng’enku ez’okukuma omuliro,

20 Balimalawo eby’oku mukono ogwa ddyo,
naye balisigala bayala;

naye tebalikkuta.
Buli omu alirya ku mubiri gw’ezzadde lye.
21 Manase alirya Efulayimu ne Efulayimu n’alya Manase

Naye wadde nga biri bityo, obusungu bwa Mukama buliba tebunnavaawo,
era n’omukono gwe guliba gukyagoloddwa.
