“kabla sijakuumba tumboni, Nilikuchagua; kabla hujazailiwa toka tumboni Nilikutenga; Nilikufanya kuwa nabii kwa mataifa.”
“Nakumanya bwe nnali sinnakubumba mu lubuto lwa maama wo; nga tonnava mu lubuto n’akutukuza. Nakulonda okubeera nnabbi eri amawanga.”
— Liboso ete nasala yo kati na libumu ya mama na yo, nayebaki yo ; liboso ete obotama, nabulisaki yo : naponaki yo mpo ete ozala mosakoli ya bikolo.
Avant que je t’eusse formé dans le ventre de ta mère, je te connaissais, et avant que tu fusses sorti de son sein, je t’ avais consacré, je t’ avais établi prophète des nations.
Antes que te formase en el vientre te conocí, y antes que salieses de la matriz te santifiqué, te dí por profeta á las gentes.
Ich kannte dich, ehe denn ich dich im Mutterleibe bereitete, und sonderte dich aus, ehe denn du von der Mutter geboren wurdest, und stellte dich zum Propheten unter die Völker.
“Antes que eu o formasse no ventre, eu o conheci. Antes que você nascesse, eu o santifiquei. Eu o designei profeta às nações.”
