⁴Bring joy to the soul of your servant, for to you, Lord, do I lift up my soul.

⁴ Ya ay Koyo, ma ni tamo bina kaanandi, Zama ni gaa no ay g'ay bina ye.

⁵For you, Lord, are good, and ready to forgive; abundant in loving kindness to all those who call on you.

⁵ Zama nin, ya ay Koyo, ni ya booriyankoy no kaŋ go soolante yaafa teeyaŋ se. Ni ya baakasinay suuji boobokoy mo no, Borey kulu kaŋ yaŋ ga ni ce se.

⁶Hear, Yahweh, my prayer. Listen to the voice of my petitions.

⁶ Ya Rabbi, ma hanga jeeri ay adduwa se, Ma hangan mo ay ŋwaaray-ŋwaarayyaŋey jinda se.

⁷In the day of my trouble I will call on you, for you will answer me.

⁹All nations you have made will come and worship before you, Lord. They shall glorify your name.

⁹ Ya Irikoy, dumey kulu kaŋ ni te ga kaa ka sududu ni jine, I ma ni maa no darza mo.

¹¹Teach me your way, Yahweh. I will walk in your truth. Make my heart undivided to fear your name.

¹²I will praise you, Lord my God, with my whole heart. I will glorify your name forevermore.

¹² Ya ay Koyo, ay Irikoyo, Ay bina kulu no ay ga ni saabu nd'a, Ay ma ni maa darzandi mo hal abada.

¹³For your loving kindness is great toward me. You have delivered my soul from the lowest Sheol Sheol is the place of the dead. .

¹³ Zama ni baakasinay suujo ya ibambata no ay do haray, Ni n'ay fundo faaba ka kaa Alaahara ganda ra.

¹⁴God, the proud have risen up against me. A company of violent men have sought after my soul, and they don’t hold regard for you before them.

¹⁴ Ya Irikoy, boŋbeeraykoyey tun ay se, Toonyante sata mo n'ay fundo ceeci, I mana ni daŋ ngey jine.

¹⁵But you, Lord, are a merciful and gracious God, slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness and truth.

¹⁵ Amma nin wo, ya ay Koyo, Ni ya Irikoy suuji nda gomnikoy no, Kaŋ ga suuru hala ni ga futu, Ni ya baakasinay suuji nda cimi yulwante Koy no.

¹⁶Turn to me, and have mercy on me! Give your strength to your servant. Save the son of your handmaid.

¹⁶ Ma bare ay do haray ka gomni te ay se. Ma ni gaabo no ay, ni tamo se ka ni koŋŋa izo faaba.

¹⁷Show me a sign of your goodness, that those who hate me may see it, and be shamed, because you, Yahweh, have helped me, and comforted me.

¹⁷ Ma booriyaŋ alaama cab'ay se mo, Zama borey kaŋ yaŋ wangu ay ma di a. I ma haaw mo, zama nin, ya Rabbi, Ni n'ay gaa, ni n'ay kunfa mo.
