1 Wolemekezeka Yehova thanthwe langa,Wakuphunzitsa manja anga acite nkhondo,Zala zanga zigwirane nao:
2 Ndiye cifundo canga, ndi linga langa,Msanje wanga, ndi mpulumutsi wanga;Cikopa canga, ndi Iye amene ndimtama;Amene andigonjetsera anthu anga.
3 Yehova, munthu ndani kuti mumdziwa?Mwana wa munthu kuti mumsamalira?
4 Munthu akunga mpweya;Masiku ace akunga mthunzi wopitirira.
5 Weramutsani thambo lanu, Yehova, nimutsike:Khudzani mapiri ndipo adzafuka.
