“Handa mundu kangupala ulami,

na milomo yake kulongela uhwangi.
11 Kangunoghwa kaghuleke uhakata na kaghutende umaha
Kangunoghwa kaghupalahe uhihimilo na kughendelela kutama mu uhihimilo.
12 Kiyaha meho gha Chapanga ghangubhalolekeha kwa umaha bhaannyitikila
na makutu ghake ghanguyihwa mayupo ghabhe,
