Salimo

 2 Yambani kuimba nyimbo ndipo tengani maseche,

Zeze womveka mosangalatsa pamodzi ndi choimbira cha zingwe.

 3 Pa tsiku limene mwezi watsopano waoneka,+ imbani lipenga la nyanga ya nkhosa,

Pa tsiku limene mwezi wathunthu waoneka, imbani lipenga la nyanga ya nkhosa, limene limaimbidwa pa tsiku la chikondwerero.+

 4 Chifukwa limeneli ndi lamulo kwa Isiraeli,

Komanso chigamulo cha Mulungu wa Yakobo.+

 5 Mulungu anaika chigamulocho kuti chikhale chikumbutso kwa Yosefe+

Pamene ankapita kukapereka chilango mʼdziko la Iguputo.+

 6 “Ndinachotsa katundu wolemera paphewa lake.+

Manja ake anamasuka moti sankanyamulanso dengu.

 7 Pamene unkakumana ndi mavuto unaitana, ndipo ine ndinakupulumutsa.+

Ndinakuyankha ndi mabingu ochokera mumtambo.*+

 9 Pakati panu sipadzakhala mulungu wachilendo,

Ndipo simudzagwadira mulungu wachilendo.+

10 Ine Yehova, ndine Mulungu wanu,

Amene ndinakutulutsani mʼdziko la Iguputo.+

11 Koma anthu anga sanamvere mawu anga,

Isiraeli sanafune kundigonjera.+

12 Choncho ndinawasiya kuti apitirize kuchita zofuna za mtima wawo wosamverawo.

Iwo anachita zimene ankaganiza kuti nʼzoyenera.*+

13 Zikanakhala bwino ngati anthu anga akanandimvera,+

Zikanakhala bwino ngati Isiraeli akanayenda mʼnjira zanga.+

14 Ndikanagonjetsa adani awo mofulumira,

Ndikanalanga adani awo ndi dzanja langa.+

15 Amene amadana ndi Yehova adzachita mantha pamaso pake,

Ndipo zimene zidzawachitikire* zidzakhalapo mpaka kalekale.

16 Koma iye adzakudyetsani tirigu wabwino kwambiri,*+

Ndipo adzakupatsani uchi wochokera pathanthwe kuti mudye nʼkukhuta.”+
