Gesami Hea:su 123

1 Hina Gode! Di da Hebene fi ouligisa. Na da Dima ba: le gadosa.

A song of ascents. I Lift up my eyes to you, who are throned in the heavens.

2 Hawa: hamosu dunu da ea hina dunu da e ouligima: ne dawa: sa, amola hawa: hamosu uda da ea hina uda e ouligima: ne dawa: sa. Amo defele, ninia Hina Gode, Dia ninima asigili gogolema: ne olofosu ima: ne, nini da ouesalumu.

As the eyes of a servant turn to the hand of his master, or the eyes of a maid to the hand of her mistress, so do our eyes turn to the Lord our God, until he is gracious to us.

3 Hina Gode! Dia asigili gogolema: ne olofosu ninima ima! Dunu eno da ninima bagadewane higasu.

Be gracious, be gracious to us, Lord. Scorn enough, and more, have we borne

4 Bagade gagui dunu da eso bagohamedafa baligili ninima haboseselalu. Hidale gasa fi dunu da eso bagohamedafa nini higale ba: lalu.

More than enough have we borne of derision from those at their ease, of scorn from those who are haughty.
