3 kusa da ƙofofin shiga cikin birni, a mashigai, ta tā da murya,

23 an naɗa ni tun fil azal, daga farko, kafin duniya ta kasance.

25 kafin a kafa duwatsu a wurarensu, kafin tuddai ma, an haife ni,

When he gaue his decree to the Sea, that the waters shoulde not passe his commandement: when he appointed the foundations of the earth,

Therefore nowe hearken, O children, vnto me: for blessed are they that keepe my wayes.
33 Ku saurari umarnina ku kuma zama masu hikima; kada ku ƙyale ta.
Heare instruction, and be ye wise, and refuse it not:
34 Mai albarka ne wanda ya saurare ni; yana tsaro kullum a ƙofofina, yana jira a ƙofar shigata.
blessed is the man that heareth mee, watching dayly at my gates, and giuing attendance at the postes of my doores.
35 Gama duk wanda ya same ni ya sami rai zai kuma sami tagomashi daga Ubangiji.
For he that findeth me, findeth life, and shall obteine fauour of the Lord.
36 Amma duk wanda ya kāsa samuna ya cuci kansa; dukan waɗanda suke ƙina suna ƙaunar mutuwa ke nan.”
But he that sinneth against me, hurteth his owne soule: and all that hate me, loue death.
