1 My God, make Yu nor kwayet just like dat!
Make Yu nor rijet us!

2 Yu nor si di nois wey yor enemies dey make?

3 Dem dey plan against yor pipol
and dem won wound di ones wey Yu love.
4 Dem dey sey, “Make una kom make wi kill evribody for Israel finish
and nobody go remember dem again.”
5 All of dem gada togeda
and dem dey plan against Yu.
6 Dem wey gada so na:
Edom and Ishmael pipol,
Moab and Hagrit pipol;
7 Gebal, Ammon and Amalek pipol
with doz from Filistia and Tyre.
8 Assyria pipol don join dem

9 So, make Yu do dem wetin Yu do Midian pipol and just as Yu do Sisera and Jabin for Kishon River,
na so too Yu go do dem.
10 Dem die for Endor and dia body

Make all di prince die like Zebah and Zalmunna

13 My God, make Yu skata dem like leaf
and san-san wey breeze dey blow!
14 As fire dey burn forest

16 My God, make Yu disgrace dem finish
until dem bigin praiz yor name.
17 Make shame and fear follow dem forever
and make dem die with disgrace.
18 Den dem go know sey na only Yu bi God,
di Pesin wey get pawa pass for di whole world.
