My soul exults in my Protector –
the afflicted hear and are glad.
O glorify
the Holy One with me,
together we'll exalt Godde's name!

me,
and delivered me from all my fears.

Behold Godde, and be
radiant;

Blessed is the one who finds refuge in Godde.

I will teach you what it means to reverence Godde ...

Who desires long life,
who yearns for many days, in order to enjoy good?

Guard your tongue from speaking evil
words,
and your lips from speaking deceitfully.

Depart from evil, and do good;

trouble;

but our Guardian redeems the lives of
those who serve Godde –
none who take refuge in Godde will be condemned.
