Ruoth mosingi ni noa Bethlehem
1 Chokuru jokedo mau, yaye dala maduongʼ mar jokedo,
nikech wasikwa osegonwa agengʼa.
Gibiro goyo

2 “To in Bethlehem Efratha,
kata obedo ni itin e dier dhout Juda,
kuomi ema ngʼat manobedna
jatend Israel nowuogie,
ngʼat machakruok mare noa chon,
kinde machon gi lala.”
3 Kuom mano Israel ibiro jwangʼ
nyaka kinde ma dhako man-gi ich nonywolie nyathi,
kendo owetene mamoko nodwogi

4 Enochungʼ mi okwa rombe

ka en gi duongʼ mar Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasache.
Joge nodag maonge luoro

Resruok kod kethruok
5 kendo en owuon ema nobed kwe margi.
Ka jo-Asuria omonjo pinywa,
kendo ka ginyono kuondewa mochiel motegno,
to wabiro yiero jokwath abiriyo mondo oked kodgi;
adier jotendwa aboro norad kodgi.
6 Gibiro loyo piny jo-Asuria gi ligangla,

Noresgi e lwet jo-Asuria

kendo ka nochopi e tongʼwa.
7 Joka Jakobo modongʼ
nobed e dier ogendini mangʼeny,
mana ka thoo moa kuom Jehova Nyasaye
kata ka ngʼidho ma omoko e lum,

8 Joka Jakobo modongʼ nobed e dier ogendini,
ginibed e dier ji mayoreyore,
mana ka sibuor e dier le mag bungu,
kata ka sibuor matin e dier rombe,
makidho kendo nyulo kokadho,
maonge ngʼama nyalo resogi.
9 Notingʼ lweti malo kiseloyo wasiki,
kendo joma kedo kodi duto notieki.
10 Jehova Nyasaye owacho niya,
“E odiechiengno anaketh fareseu
kendo nabanj gecheu mag lweny.
11 Anaketh mier madongo manie pinyu mochiel motegno
kendo anamuk ohingau.
12 Abiro tieko timbeu mag jwok

13 Abiro ketho kido mopa mau

Ok unuchak ukulru piny

14 Abiro muko sirni mag nyasachu ma Ashera mi agol kuomu
kendo abiro ketho miechu madongo chuth.
15 Anachul kuor gi mirima
kod gero kuom ogendini ma osedagi luora.”
