A Psalm of praise for the sons of Core on the second [day] of the week. Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised in the city of our God, in his holy mountain.

4 Sa’ad da sarakuna suka haɗa rundunoni, sa’ad da suka yi gaba tare,

For, behold the kings of the earth were assembled, they came together.

8 Yadda muka ji, haka muka gani a cikin birnin Ubangiji Maɗaukaki, a cikin birnin Allahnmu. Allah ya sa ta zauna lafiya har abada. (Sela)

As we have heard, so have we also seen, in the city of the Lord of hosts, in the city of our God: God has founded it for ever. (Pause)

We have thought of your mercy, O God, in the midst of your people.

10 Kamar sunanka, ya Allah, yabonka ya kai iyakokin duniya; hannunka na dama ya cika da adalci.

According to your name, O God, so is also your praise to the ends of the earth: your right hand is full of righteousness.

Mark you well her strength, and observe her palaces; that you may tell the next generation.

14 Gama wannan Allah shi ne Allahnmu har abada abadin; zai zama jagorarmu har zuwa ƙarshe.

For this is our God for ever and ever: he will be our guide for evermore.
