Koma iwo anati: “Kodi angathenso kutipatsa chakudya,

Moto+ unayakira Yakobo,
Ndipo mkwiyo wake unayakira Isiraeli+
22 Chifukwa chakuti sanakhulupirire Mulungu.+
Sanakhulupirire kuti iye angathe kuwapulumutsa.
23 Choncho Mulungu analamula mitambo yamumlengalenga,
Ndipo anatsegula zitseko zakumwamba.
26 Anachititsa kuti mphepo yakumʼmawa iwombe mumlengalenga,
Komanso ndi mphamvu zake, anachititsa kuti mphepo yakumʼmwera iwombe.+
27 Iye anawagwetsera nyama yochuluka ngati fumbi,
Anawagwetsera mbalame zochuluka ngati mchenga wamʼmbali mwa nyanja.
Iye anapha amuna amphamvu pakati pawo.+
Anapha anyamata a mu Isiraeli.

Komanso achule kuti awawononge.+
46 Anapereka zokolola zawo kwa dzombe lowononga,
Anapereka zipatso za ntchito yawo kwa dzombe lochuluka.+

Komanso ukali wake ndipo anawabweretsera mavuto,
Anawatumizira magulu a angelo kuti awabweretsere tsoka.
50 Mkwiyo wake anaulambulira njira.

Ndipo anawagwetsera mliri.*
51 Pamapeto pake anapha ana onse oyamba kubadwa a ku Iguputo,+
Amene ndi chiyambi cha mphamvu zawo zobereka mʼmatenti a Hamu.
52 Kenako anatulutsa anthu ake mʼdzikolo ngati gulu la nkhosa,+
Ndipo anawatsogolera mʼchipululu ngati nkhosa.
54 Kenako anawalowetsa mʼdziko lake lopatulika,+
Mʼdera lamapiri ili limene dzanja lake lamanja linatenga.+
55 Iye anathamangitsa mitundu ya anthu kuichotsa pamaso pawo.+
Iye anawagawira dzikolo kuti likhale cholowa chawo pochita kuwayezera ndi chingwe.+
Anachititsa mafuko a Isiraeli kuti akhale mʼnyumba zawozawo.+
56 Koma iwo anapitiriza kuyesa Mulungu Wamʼmwambamwamba komanso kumupandukira.+
Sanamvere zikumbutso zake.+
57 Iwo anasiyanso Mulungu ndipo ankachita zinthu mwachinyengo ngati makolo awo.+
