Amene wamugwira dzanja lake lamanja+
Kuti agonjetse mitundu ya anthu pamaso pake,+
Kuti alande zida zankhondo za mafumu,*
Kuti amutsegulire zitseko zokhala ziwiriziwiri,
Kuti mageti adzakhale osatseka. Iye wamuuza kuti:
3 Ndidzakupatsa chuma chimene chili mumdima
Ndiponso chuma chimene chabisidwa mʼmalo achinsinsi,+

10 Tsoka kwa amene akufunsa bambo kuti: “Kodi nʼchiyani mwaberekachi?”
Ndiponso wofunsa mkazi kuti: “Kodi nʼchiyani mukuberekachi?”*
11 Yehova, Woyera wa Isiraeli+ ndiponso amene anamuumba, wanena kuti:
“Kodi ukukaikira mawu anga okhudza zinthu zimene zikubwera
Ndipo ukundilamula zinthu zokhudza ana anga+ komanso ntchito ya manja anga?

Komanso kumasula anthu anga amene ali ku ukapolo,+ popanda malipiro kapena chiphuphu,”+ akutero Yehova wa magulu ankhondo akumwamba.
14 Yehova wanena kuti:
“Phindu la ku Iguputo,* malonda* a ku Itiyopiya ndi Asabeya, anthu ataliatali,
Adzabwera kwa iwe ndipo adzakhala ako.
Iwo adzayenda pambuyo pako atamangidwa mʼmaunyolo
Adzabwera nʼkudzakugwadira.+
Adzapemphera kwa iwe kuti, ‘Zoonadi Mulungu ali ndi iwe,+
Ndipo palibenso wina. Palibenso Mulungu wina.’”
16 Anthu onse adzachititsidwa manyazi ndipo adzanyozeka.
Anthu onse amene amapanga mafano adzachoka mwamanyazi.+
17 Koma Isiraeli adzapulumutsidwa ndi Yehova ndipo chipulumutso chake chidzakhala chosatha.+
Inu simudzachititsidwa manyazi kapena kunyozeka mpaka kalekale.+
