8 Penepo Bhildhadhe+ wa ku Suwa+ atawira:
2 Unapitiriza kulonga tenepa mpaka lini?+
Mafala anabuluka pamulomo pako ndi ninga mphepo yamphambvu!
3 Kodi Mulungu asatonga mwakuipa,
Peno Wamphambvu Zonsene asacita pinthu pyakukhonda kulungama?
4 Khala anako an’dawira,
Iye aasiya toera atcunyuswe thangwi yakukhonda kubvera kwawo;
5 Mbwenye ungasaka ciphedzo kuna Mulungu,+
Mbudembetera toera ubverwe ntsisi na Wamphambvu Zonsene,
6 Pontho, mbudakhaladi munthu wadidi na wakulungama,+
Iye mbadakuonera,
Mbakuikha pontho pa mbuto yako yakuthema.
7 Maseze pakutoma ukhali wakupwazika,
Unadzakhala na pinthu pizinji ntsogolo.+
8 Ndaphata miyendo, bvundza akulu akale,
Pontho bvesesa pinthu pidadzindikira ambuyawo.+
9 Thangwi ife tabalwa dzulo, pontho nkhabe cinadziwa ife,
Thangwi ntsiku zathu pa dziko yapantsi ndi ninga n’thundzi.
10 Kodi iwo nee anakupfundzisa,
Mbakupanga pinadziwa iwo?
11 Kodi ululu usamera kutali na gowa ya madzi?
Mitete isakula ingasowa madzi?
12 Mbuciri na maluwa, mbudzati kudulwa,
Iwo unauma miti inango mbidzati kuuma.
13 Onsene anaduwala Mulungu anamalisira tenepo,
Thangwi cidikhiro ca munthu wakuipa cinamala,
14 Cinyindiro cace ndi capezi,
Citsidzikizo cace ndi cakufewa ninga nyumba ya nyantandaude.*
15 Iye anatsamira nyumba yace, mbwenye iyo inagwa;
Iye anayesera kuiphatirira, mbwenye iyo nee inapitiriza.
16 Iye ndi ninga muti wa m’madzi unakula pa dzuwa,
Nthawi zace mbazimwazika m’munda wa maluwa.+
17 Mitcitci yace isapitisirana pa nkuku wa miyala;
Iye asasaka nyumba pakati pa miyala.*
18 Mbwenye angabuluswa* pa mbuto pace,
Mbuto ineyi nee inandzindikira, mbilonga: ‘Ine cipo ndakuona.’+
19 Inde, iye anazambazika tenepo,+
Buluka penepo miti inango inamera pa mataka.
20 Mwandimomwene, Mulungu nee anakhonda ale anapitiriza kukhala akukhulupirika;
Pontho nee anaphedza* anthu akuipa.
21 Mbwenye iwe, iye anakucitisa kuti usekere,
Mulomo wako mbukhuwa na kutsandzaya.
22 Anthu anakuida anadzapasika manyadzo,
Pontho nyumba za anyakuipa nkhabe kudzaonekabve.”
