Masalmo
Kuna nyakutsogolera nyimbo. Nyimbo ya Dhavidhi ntumiki wa Yahova.
36 Uipi usatsogolera ntima wa munthu anacita pyakuipa;
Iye nkhabe kugopa Mulungu.+
2 Iye asaoneka ekhene ninga wakufunika kakamwe
Na thangwi ineyi, iye nkhabe kudzindikira, nee kuida madodo ace.+
3 Mafala anabuluka pamulomo pace ndi akudzidzida na akunyengeza;
Iye nkhabe ndzeru zakucita pinthu pyadidi.
4 Maseze ali patalimba pace, iye asanyerezera kucita pinthu pyakuipa.
Iye asankhula kupita na njira yakuti nee ndi yadidi;
Iye nee asacalira pinthu pyakuipa.
5 Yahova, ufuni wanu wakukhonda mala wafika mpaka kudzulu,+
Kukhulupirika kwanu kwafika mpaka mʼmakole.
6 Ulungami wanu ndi ninga mapiri makulu kakamwe;*+
Kutonga kwanu kwakhala ninga madzi mazinji akuzika kakamwe.+
Yahova, imwe musapulumusa anthu na pinyama.+
7 Mulungu, ufuni wanu wakukhonda mala ndi wakufunika kakamwe.+
Ana a anthu asathawira+
Mu nʼthundzi wa maphapido anu.
8 Iwo asadya mbakhuta na pinthu pizinji piri nʼnyumba mwanu,+
Pontho, imwe musaapasa pinthu pizinji pyadidi ninga mukuacitisa kumwa madzi a mu nkulo wakuti uli na madzi mazinji.+
10 Pitirizani kupangiza ufuni wanu wakukhonda mala kuna ale anakudziwani,+
Pontho pangizani ulungami wanu kuna ale ali na ntima wakulungama.+
11 Lekani kutawirisa kuti miyendo ya anthu akudzikuza indiponde
Peno kutawirisa kuti anthu anacita pyakuipa andithamangise.
12 Onani, anyakucita pyakuipa amala kugwa;
Iwo agwa, pontho nkhabe kwanisa kulamuka.+
