< Masalimo 2 >
1 Nʼchifukwa chiyani anthu a mitundu ina akufuna kuchita chiwembu? Akonzekeranji zopanda pake anthu?
2 Mafumu a dziko lapansi akugwirizana nazo; ndipo olamulira asonkhana pamodzi kulimbana ndi Ambuye ndi wodzozedwa wakeyo.
3 Iwo akunena kuti, “Tiyeni timasule magoli awo ndipo titaye zingwe zawo.”
4 Wokhala mmwamba akuseka; Ambuye akuwanyoza iwowo.
5 Ndipo iye awadzudzula mu mkwiyo wake ndi kuwaopseza mu ukali wake, kunena kuti,
6 “Ine ndakhazikitsa mfumu yanga pa Ziyoni, phiri langa loyera.”
7 Ine ndidzalengeza zimene Yehova walamula: Iye anati kwa Ine, “Iwe ndiwe mwana wanga; lero Ine ndakhala Atate ako.
8 Tandipempha, ndipo ndidzachititsa kuti mitundu ya anthu ikhale cholowa chako; malekezero a dziko lapansi kuti akhale chuma chako.
9 Iweyo udzawalamulira ndi ndodo yaufumu yachitsulo; udzawaphwanya zidutswazidutswa ngati zowumba zadothi.”
10 Kotero, inu mafumu, chenjerani; chenjezedwani, inu olamulira a dziko lapansi.
11 Tumikirani Yehova mwa mantha ndi kukondwerera ulamuliro wake monjenjemera.
12 Mpsopsoneni mwanayo kuti angakwiye; kuti mungawonongedwe mʼnjira zanu, pakuti ukali wake utha kuuka mʼkanthawi kochepa. Odala ndi onse amene amathawira kwa Iye.
