3 Mulungu ali mu malinga ake;

4 Pamene mafumu anasonkhana pamodzi,

6 Pomwepo anagwidwa nako kunjenjemera,

11 Phiri la Ziyoni likukondwera,

12 Yendayendani mu Ziyoni, uzungulireni mzindawo,
werengani nsanja zake.
13 Yangʼanitsitsani bwino mipanda yake,

kuti mudzafotokoze za izo ku mʼbado wotsatira.
14 Pakuti Mulungu uyu ndi Mulungu wathu ku nthawi zosatha;
Iye adzakhala mtsogoleri wathu mpaka ku mapeto.

2 Patapita nthawi, Davide anafunsa Yehova kuti, “Kodi ndipite ku umodzi mwa mizinda ya Yuda?”
Yehova anayankha kuti, “Pita.”
