Healdað his staðelas halige beorgas; lufude Sione duru symble drihten ofer Iacobes wic goode ealle. Wærun wuldurlice wið þe wel acweðene, þæt þu si cymast ceastra drihtnes; eac ic gemyndige þa mæran Raab and Babilonis begea gehwæðeres. Efne fremde cynn foran of Tyrum, folc Sigelwara naman þær fæstne eard. Modor Sion "man" cwæð ærest, and hire mære gewearð mann on innan, and he hi þa hehstan her staðelade. Drihten þæt on gewritum dema sægde þam þe frumsprecend folces wæron,
eallum swylce, þe hire on wæron. Swa ure ealra bliss eardhæbbendra on anum þe ece standeð.
