1 MIYAMBI ya Solomo mwana wa Davide, mfumu ya Israyeli.
2 Kudziwa nzeru ndi mwambo;Kuzindikira mau ozindikiritsa;
3 Kulandira mwambo wakusamalira macitidwe,Cilungamo, ciweruzo ndi zolunjika;
4 Kucenjeza acibwana,Kuphunzitsa mnyamata kudziwa ndi kulingalira;
5 Kuti wanzeru amve, naonjezere kuphunzira;Ndi kuti wozindikira afikire kuuphungu;
6 Kuzindikira mwambi ndi tanthauzo lace,Mau a anzeru, ndi zophiphiritsa zao.
7 Kuopa Yehova ndiko ciyambi ca kudziwa;Opusa anyoza nzeru ndi mwambo.
8 Mwananga, tamva mwambo wa atate wako,Ndi kusasiya cilangizo ca amako
9 Pakuti izi ndi korona wa cisomo pamtu pako,Ndi mkanda pakhosi pako.
10 Mwananga, akakukopa ocimwa usalole.
11 Akanena, Idza nafe, tibisalire mwazi,Tilalire osacimwa opanda cifukwa;
12 Tiwameze ali ndi moyo ngati manda,Ali amphumphu, ngati akutsikira kudzenje;
13 Tidzapeza cuma conse ca mtengo wace,Tidzadzaza nyumba zathu ndi zofunkha;
14 Udzacita nafe maere,Tonse tidzakhala ndi cibeti cimodzi;
15 Mwananga, usayende nao m'njira;Letsa phazi lako ku mayendedwe ao;
16 Pakuti mapazi ao athamangira zoipa,Afulumira kukhetsa mwazi.
17 Pakuti kuchera msampha pamaso pa mbalame ndi cabe;
18 Ndipo awa abisalira mwazi wao wao, alalira miyoyo yao yao.
19 Mayendedwe a yense wopindula cuma monyenga ngotere;Cilanda moyo wa eni ace,
20 Nzeru ipfuula panja;Imveketsa mau ace pabwalo;
21 Iitana posonkhana anthu polowera pacipata;M'mudzi inena mau ace;
22 Kodi mudzakonda zacibwana kufikira liti, acibwana inu?Onyoza ndi kukonda kunyoza,Opusa ndi kuda nzeru?
23 Tembenukani pamene ndikudzudzulani;Taonani, nditsanulira pa inu mzimu wanga,Ndikudziwitsani mau anga.
24 Cifukwa ndaitana, ndipo munakana;Ndatambasula dzanja langa, ndipo panalibe analabadira;
25 Koma munapeputsa uphungu wangawonse,Ndi kukana kudzudzula kwanga.
26 Inetu ndidzacitiraciphwete tsoka lanu,Ndidzatonyola pakudza mantha anu;
27 Pakudza mantha anu ngati mphepo yopasula,Ndi pofika tsoka lanu ngati kabvumvulu;Pakudza kwa inu bvuto ndi nsautso.
28 Pamenepo adzandiitana, koma sindidzabvomera;Adzandifunatu, osandipeza ai;
29 Cifukwa anada nzeru,Sanafuna kuopa Yehova;
30 Anakana uphungu wanga,Nanyoza kudzudzula kwanga konse;
31 Momwemo adzadya zipatso za mayendedwe ao,Nadzakhuta zolingalira zao.
32 Pakuti kubwerera m'mbuyo kwa acibwana kudzawapha;Ndipo mphwai za opusa zidzawaononga.
33 Koma wondimvera ine adzakhala osatekeseka,Nadzakhala phe osaopa zoipa,
