Yamikani Yehova chifukwa ndi wabwino;

Pamenepo analirira Yehova mʼmavuto awo
ndipo Iye anawapulumutsa ku masautso awo.
Iye anawatsogolera mʼnjira yowongoka

Ayamike Yehova chifukwa cha chikondi chake chosatha
ndi chifukwa cha machitidwe ake odabwitsa kwa anthu onse,
pakuti Iye wapha ludzu la munthu womva ludzu
ndipo wakhutitsa wanjala ndi zinthu zabwino.

ndipo anamva zowawa chifukwa cha mphulupulu zawo.
18 Iwo ananyansidwa ndi chakudya chilichonse
ndipo anafika pafupi ndi zipata za imfa.
19 Pamenepo analirira Yehova mʼmasautso awo
ndipo Iye anawapulumutsa ku masautso awowo.
20 Iye anatumiza mawu ake ndi kuwachiritsa;
anawalanditsa ku manda.
21 Ayamike Yehova chifukwa cha chikondi chake chosatha
ndi machitidwe ake odabwitsa kwa anthu.
22 Apereke nsembe yachiyamiko
ndi kufotokoza za ntchito zake ndi nyimbo zachimwemwe.
 
23 Ena anayenda pa nyanja mʼsitima zapamadzi;
Iwo anali anthu amalonda pa nyanja yayikulu.

25 Pakuti Iye anayankhula ndi kuwutsa mphepo yamkuntho

28 Pamenepo analirira Yehova mʼmasautso awo
ndipo Iyeyo anawapulumutsa ku masautso awo.

ndipo Iye anawatsogolera ku dooko limene amalifuna.
31 Ayamike Yehova chifukwa cha chikondi chake chosatha
ndi machitidwe ake odabwitsa kwa anthu.
32 Akuze Iye mu msonkhano wa anthu
ndi kumutamanda pabwalo la akuluakulu.
 
33 Iye anasandutsa mitsinje kukhala chipululu,
akasupe otuluka madzi kukhala nthaka yowuma,
34 ndiponso nthaka yachonde kukhala nthaka yamchere,
chifukwa cha kuyipa kwa amene amakhala kumeneko.
35 Anasandutsa chipululu kukhala mayiwe a madzi
ndi nthaka yowuma kukhala akasupe a madzi oyenda;
36 kumeneko Iye anabweretsa anthu anjala kuti azikhalako,
ndipo iwo anamanga mzinda woti akhazikikeko.

41 Koma Iyeyo anakweza anthu osowa kuchoka ku masautso awo
ngati magulu a nkhosa.
42 Anthu olungama mtima amaona ndi kusangalala,
koma anthu onse oyipa amatseka pakamwa pawo.
 
43 Aliyense wanzeru asamalitse zinthu zimenezi
ndi kuganizira za chikondi chachikulu cha Yehova.
