19 gareeb hona atey khare raah te chalna,+

moorkh hon atey jhooth bolan nalo changa hai.+

 2 giaan na hona insaan layi changi gall nahi+

atey jehrra jaldbazi vich kamm karda hai,* oh paap karda hai.

 3 aadmi di apni moorkhtayi os nu gumrah kardi hai

atey os da mann yahovah te bharrak utthda hai.

 4 daulat dher sare dosta nu khichdi hai,

par gareeb aadmi nu taa os da dost vi chhadd javega.+

 5 jhootha gavah saza to na chhuttega+

atey gall-gall te jhooth bolan vala nahi bachega.+

 6 khull-dile* insaan di meher taa kayi pauni chahunde han

atey tohfe den vale aadmi da har koi dost bann janda hai.

 7 gareeb aadmi de sare bhra os naal nafrat karde han;+

taa fir, os de dosta da os nu chhadd ke jana koi vaddi gall nahi!+

 9 jhootha gavah saza to na chhuttega

atey gall-gall te jhooth bolan vala naash ho javega.+

10 thaath-baath naal rehna moorkh nu jachda nahi;

taa fir, naukar da haakma utte raj karna kive jachega?+

11 aadmi di doonghi samajh os de gusse nu thanda kardi hai,+

thes laggan te is nu* nazarandaz karna* os di shaan hai.+

12 raje da gussa sher di garj vang hai,+

par os di meher perr-paudya te payi trel vang hai.

13 moorkh puttar apne pita te bipta liaaunda hai+

atey jhagrralu* patni os chhatt vargi hai jo kade chono nahi hatdi.+

14 ghar te dhan-daulat virse vich pitava to mildi hai,

par samajhdar patni yahovah vallo mildi hai.+

15 aalas doonghi neend sula dinda hai

atey sust insaan bhukha rahega.+

16 hukam nu mannan vala apni jaan bachaunda hai;+

jehrra laparvahi naal chalda hai, oh apni jaan guaavega.+

17 jehrra gareeb te daya karda hai, oh yahovah nu udhaar dinda hai+

atey oh os nu os de kamm da inaam* devega.+

18 jad tak aas hai, apne puttar nu anushasan de+

atey os di maut da zimmevar na bann.*+

19 garam subhaa vala harjana bharega;

je tu os nu bachaun di koshish keeti, taa tainu vaar-vaar ive karna pavega.+

20 salah nu sunn atey anushasan nu kabool kar+

taaki bhavikh vich tu budhiman bane.+

21 aadmi da mann bahut sariya yojnaava banaunda hai,

par yahovah di salah* hi safal hovegi.+

22 insaan di khoobi os da attal pyaar hai;+

jhootha bannan nalo gareeb hona changa hai.

23 yahovah da dar zindagi val lai janda hai;+

eh dar mannan vala chain naal rahega te nuksan to bachya rahega.+

24 aalsi daavat de katore vich hath taa dobda hai,

par is nu muh tak liaaun di khechal nahi karda.+

25 makhauliye nu maar+ taaki natajarbekar samajhdar bann sake+

atey samajhdar nu taarr taaki os da giaan vadhe.+

26 jehrra puttar apne pita naal maarra salook karda atey apni maa nu kadd dinda hai,

oh sharmindgi te badnami liaaunda hai.+

27 he mere puttar, je tu sikhya te kann launa chhadd deve,

taa tu giaan diya galla to bhatak javenga.

28 nikamma gavah niya da mazaak udaunda hai+

atey dusht da muh burayi nu nigal janda hai.+

29 makhauliya layi saza sambh ke rakhi gayi hai+

atey moorkha di pitth layi kutt.+
