73 Mulungu ndi wabwinodi kwa Isiraeli, kwa anthu oyera mtima.+
5 Iwo savutika ngati mmene anthu ena amavutikira,+
Ndipo sakumana ndi mavuto mofanana ndi anthu ena.+
7 Maso awo akwiririka chifukwa cha kunenepa kwa nkhope yawo.*
Ali ndi zinthu zambiri kuposa zimene ankalakalaka mumtima mwawo.
8 Iwo amanyodola komanso kulankhula zinthu zoipa.+
Amaopseza anthu monyada kuti awapondereza.+
9 Amalankhula ngati kuti ali kumwamba,
Ndipo malilime awo akuyendayenda padziko lapansi mwamatama.
10 Choncho anthu a Mulungu amawatsatira,
Ndipo amamwa madzi awo omwe ndi ambiri.
11 Iwo amanena kuti: “Mulungu angadziwe bwanji?+
Kodi Wamʼmwambamwamba amadziwa chilichonse?”
12 Ndithudi, izi nʼzimene oipa amachita, amakhala mosatekeseka nthawi zonse.+
Iwo amawonjezera chuma chawo.+
13 Ndithudi, ndayeretsa mtima wanga pachabe,
Ndipo ndasamba mʼmanja mwanga pachabe posonyeza kuti ndine wosalakwa.+
16 Nditayesa kuti ndimvetse zimenezi,
Zinali zopweteka kwa ine
17 Mpaka pamene ndinalowa mʼmalo opatulika aulemerero a Mulungu,
Ndipo ndinazindikira tsogolo lawo.
18 Ndithudi, mwawaika pamalo oterera.+
Mwawagwetsa kuti awonongeke.+
19 Iwo awonongedwa mwadzidzidzi.+
Afika pamapeto awo modzidzimutsa ndipo atha momvetsa chisoni!
22 Ndinali wopanda nzeru ndipo sindinkamvetsa zinthu.
Ndinali ngati nyama yosaganiza pamaso panu.
25 Winanso ndi ndani kumwambako amene angandithandize?
Ndipo chifukwa chakuti inu muli ndi ine, palibenso chimene ndimalakalaka padziko lapansi.+
26 Thupi langa ndi mtima wanga zingalefuke,
Koma Mulungu ndi thanthwe la mtima wanga ndiponso cholowa changa mpaka kalekale.+
27 Ndithudi, anthu amene ali kutali ndi inu adzatheratu.
Mudzawononga* aliyense amene akukusiyani pochita chigololo.*+
28 Koma kwa ine, kuyandikira kwa Mulungu ndi chinthu chabwino.+
Ndapanga Yehova Ambuye Wamkulu Koposa kukhala malo anga othawirako,
Kuti ndilengeze za ntchito zanu zonse.+
