A fire goes before him, and burns up his adversaries on every side.

The heavens declare his righteousness. All the peoples have seen his glory.
7 Onse amene amalambira mafano osema amachititsidwa manyazi, iwo amene amanyadira mafano; mulambireni, inu milungu yonse!

For you, LORD, are most high above all the earth. You are exalted far above all gods.

Light is sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart.
12 Kondwerani mwa Yehova Inu olungama ndipo tamandani dzina lake loyera.
