1 Yehova ndiye kuwunika kwanga ndi chipulumutso changa;

ndidzaopa yani?

Yehova ndi linga la moyo wanga;

ndidzachita mantha ndi yani?

2 Pamene anthu oyipa abwera kudzalimbana nane

kudzadya mnofu wanga,

pamene adani anga ndi achiwembu andithira nkhondo,

iwo adzapunthwa ndi kugwa.

3 Ngakhale gulu lankhondo lindizinge,

mtima wanga sudzaopa.

Ngakhale nkhondo itayambika kulimbana nane,

ngakhale nthawi imeneyo, ine ndidzalimbika mtima.
