1 Inu Mulungu musakhale chete;

2 Onani adani anu akuchita chiwawa,

Iwo akukonzekera kutsutsana ndi omwe mumawakonda.
4 Iwo akunena kuti, “Bwerani” akutero, “Tiyeni tiwononge mtundu wonsewu
kuti dzina la Israeli lisakumbukikenso.”

6 Matenti a Edomu ndi Aismaeli,

8 Ngakhalenso Aasiriya aphatikizana nawo
kupereka mphamvu kwa ana a Loti.
