3 Iye awathamangitsa, napitirira mwamtendere; pa njira imene asanapitemo ndi mapazi ace.
4 Ndani wacipanga, nacimariza ico, kuchula mibadwo ciyambire? Ine Yehova, ndine woyamba, ndi pacimariziro ndine ndemwe.
5 Zisumbu zinaona niziopa; malekezero a dziko lapansi ananthunthumira; anayandikira, nafika.
6 Iwo anathangata yense mnansi wace, ndi yense anati kwa mbale wace, Khala wolimba mtima.
7 Cotero mmisiri wa mitengo analimbikitsa wosula golidi, ndi iye amene asalaza ndi nyundo anamlimbikitsa iye amene amenya posulira, nanena za kulumikiza ndi nthobvu, Kuti kwabwino; ndipo iye akhomera fanolo misomali kuti lisasunthike.
8 Koma iwe, Israyeli, mtumiki wanga, Yakobo, amene ndinakusankha, mbeu ya Abrahamu bwenzi langa;
9 iwe amene ndinakuwira iwe zolimba kucokera ku malekezero a dziko lapansi, ndi kukuitana iwe kucokera m'ngondya zace, ndipo ndinati kwa iwe, Ndiwe mtumiki wanga ndakusankha, sindinakutaya kunja;
