I spoke about your faithfulness and your salvation.
I do not cover your love and your truth
at the great assembly.” (Source: Mawu a Mulungu mu Chichewa Chalero Back Translation) - Newari:
“I have not just hidden in my heart
the good news that You have saved [us].
I am always proclaiming that you are trustworthy
and the one who gives salvation.
In the great assembly I have also been proclaiming
that You are trustworthy
and that Your mercy endures forever.” (Source: Newari Back Translation) - Hiligaynon:
“I do- not -hide in myself/[lit. my own self] your (sing.) saving me.
