Tatawešo wa magodimong!
Leina la gago a le kgethwe,
mmušo wa gago a o tle.
Thato ya gago a e dirwe mo lefaseng bjalo ka ge e dirwa legodimong.
O re fe lehono bogobe bja rena bjaka mehla,
O re swarele melato ya rena bjale ka ge le rena re Swarela ba ba re phošetšago.
O se re iše molekong, gomme o re phološe bobeng.
Gobane mmušo ke wa gago, le maatla le letago, ka go sa felego.
Amene.

Tata rena wa magodimong.

O re swarele diphoso tsa rena bjaloka ge le rena re

O se re ise molekong,

Amen.
