3 Ɖo wò kekeli kple nyateƒe ɖa, ne woakplɔm; na woakplɔm ayi ɖe wò to kɔkɔe la dzi, afi si nènɔna.

Send light your and truth your they may they lead me may they bring me to [the] mountain of holiness your and to dwelling place your.

4 Ekema mayi ɖe Mawu ƒe vɔsamlekpui ŋgɔ, Mawu si nye nye aseyetsotso kple nye dzidzɔ. O! Mawu, nye Mawu, makafu wò kple kasaŋku.
