3. Esithi, Andiyi kungena ententeni eyindlu yam,Andiyi kunyuka ndiye esililini, emandlalweni wam;
4. Andiyi kuwanika amehlo am ubuthongo,Neenkophe zam ukozela:
5. Ndide ndimfumanele indawo uYehova,Ndiyifumanele umnquba imbalasane kaYakobi.
6. Khangela, sawuva e-Efrata,Sawufumana ezintilini zaseKiriyati-yeharim.*
7. Masingene emnqubeni wakhe,Siqubude esihlalweni seenyawo zakhe.
8. Khawusuk' ume, Yehova, uze ekuphumleni kwakho,Wena netyeya yamandla akho.
