1 Cherani khutu pemphero langa, Mulungu;Ndipo musadzibisa pa kupemba kwanga.
2 Mveram, ndipo mundiyankhe:Ndiliralira m'kudandaula kwanga ndi kubuula;
3 Cifukwa ca mau a mdani,Cifukwa ca kundipsinja woipa;Pakuti andisenza zopanda pace,Ndipo adana nane mumkwiyo.
4 Mtima wanga uwawa m'kati mwanga;Ndipo zoopsa za imfa zandigwera.
5 Mantha ndi kunjenjemera zandidzera,Ndipo zoopsetsa zandikuta.
6 Ndipo ndinati, Ha, wina akadandipatsa mapiko onga a njiwaMwenzi nditauluka, ndi kukhaliratu.
7 Onani, ndikadathawira kutari,Ndikadagona m'cipululu.
8 Ndikadafulumira ndipulumukeKu mphepo yolimba ndi namondwe.
9 Aonongeni, Ambuye, gawani lilime lao:Pakuti ndaona ciwawa ndi ndeu m'mudzimo.
10 Izizo ziuzungulira pa malinga ace usana ndi usiku;Ndipo m'kati mwace muli zapanda pace ndi cobvuta.
11 M'kati mwace muli kusakaza:Ciwawa ndi cinyengo sizicoka m'makwalala ace.
12 Pakuti si mdani amene ananditonzayo;Pakadatero ndikadacilola:Amene anadzikuza pa ine sindiye munthu wondida;Pakadatero ndikadambisalira:
13 Koma ameneyo ndiwe, munthu woyenerana nane,Tsamwali wanga, wodziwana nane.
14 Tinapangirana upo wokoma,Tinaperekeza khamu la anthu popita ku nyumba ya Mulungu.
15 Imfa iwagwere modzidzimutsa,Atsikire kumanda ali amoyo:Pakuti m'mokhala mwao muli zoipa pakati pao,
16 Koma ine ndidzapfuulira kwa Mulungu;Ndipo Yehova atizandipulumutsa.
17 Madzulo, m'mawa, ndi msana ndidzadandaula, ndi kubuula,Ndipo adzamva mau anga.
18 Anaombola moyo wanga ku nkhondo yondilaka, ndikhale mumtendere:Pakuti ndiwo ambiri okangana nane.
19 Mulungu adzamva, nadzawasautsa,Ndiye wokhalabe ciyambire kale lomwe.Popeza iwowa sasinthika konse,Ndipo saopa Mulungu.
20 Anaturutsa manja ace awagwire iwo akuyanjana naye:Anaipsa pangano lace.
21 Pakamwa pace mposalala ngati mafuta amkaka,Koma mumtima mwace munali nkhondo:Mau ace ngofewa ngati mafuta oyenga,Koma anali malupanga osololasolola.
22 Umsenze Yehova nkhawa zako, ndipo Iyeadzakugwiriziza:Nthawi zonse sadzalola wolungama agwedezeke.
23 Koma Inu, Mulungu, mudzawatsitsira ku dzenje la cionongeko:Anthu okhetsa mwazi ndi acinyengo masiku ao sadzafikira nusu;Koma ine ndidzakhulupirira Inu.
