¹{A Psalm of David.} I will sing of loving-kindness and judgment: unto thee, Jehovah, will I sing psalms.

¹ Dawda baytu fo no. Ay ga baakasinay suuji nda cimi ciiti baytey te. Ya Rabbi, ay ga sifayaŋ baytu te ni se.

²I will behave myself wisely in a perfect way. When wilt thou come unto me? I will walk within my house in the integrity of my heart.

² Ay ga laakal d'ay muraadey fonda kaŋ go cimi toonante ra. Waati fo no ni ga kaa ay do? Bine sabayaŋ no ay ga dira nd'a ay windo ra.

³I will set no thing of Belial before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me.

³ Ay si hay fo yaamo daŋ ay moy jine, Kambayankoyey goyo, ay konn'a. A s'ay di mo.

⁴A perverse heart shall depart from me; I will not know evil.

⁴ Bine kaŋ ga siiri ga mooru ay, Ay si yadda ya goy laalo bay mo.

⁵Whoso secretly slandereth his neighbour, him will I destroy; him that hath a high look and a proud heart will I not suffer.

⁵ Boro kaŋ ga tugu ka nga gorokasin maa sara, Ay g'a koy halaci. Boro kaŋ gonda boŋbeeray da fundi beeray, Ay si suuru nd'a.

⁶Mine eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me; he that walketh in a perfect way, he shall serve me.

⁶ Ay moy go no laabo naanaykoyey gaa, Zama i ma goro ay banda. Boro kaŋ ga dira fondo cimi toonantekoy ra, Nga no ga goy ay se.

⁷He that practiseth deceit shall not dwell within my house; he that speaketh falsehoods shall not subsist in my sight.

⁷ Gulinci goykoy si goro ay windo ra, Tangarikom mo si kay ay jine.

⁸Every morning will I destroy all the wicked of the land: to cut off all workers of iniquity from the city of Jehovah.

⁸ Susubay kulu ay ga soobay ka laabo ra boro laaley kulu halaci, zama i ma taali-teerey kulu halaci Rabbi gallo ra.
