“Bendise si Jeova, O antijo, yan chamo malelefa todo ni y minaulegña: Ni y umasie todo tinaelayemo;
ni y munamagong todo y chetnotmo; Ni y munalibre y linâlâmo guinin y yinilang: ni y comorona
jao ni güinaeyan mauleg yan y manadan minaase: Ni y munanajong y pachotmo ni y manmauleg na
güinaja: ya y pinatgonmo jananuebo taegüije y aguila.” Salmo 103:2-5
(Josephine Chargualaf Varley, Narrator, Salmo 103).
