Psalms 119
1 ALEPH Blessed are those whose ways are blameless, who walk according to Yahweh’s law.
Odala ndi amene moyo wawo ulibe cholakwa, amene amayenda monga mwa malamulo a Yehova.
2 Blessed are those who keep his statutes, who seek him with their whole heart.
Odala ndi amene amasunga malamulo ake, amene amafunafuna Iyeyo ndi mtima wawo wonse.
3 Yes, they do nothing wrong. They walk in his ways.
Sachita cholakwa chilichonse; amayenda mʼnjira zake.
4 You have commanded your precepts, that we should fully obey them.
Inu mwapereka malangizo ndipo ayenera kutsatidwa kwathunthu.
5 Oh that my ways were steadfast to obey your statutes!
Aa! Ndikanakonda njira zanga zikanakhala zokhazikika pa kumvera zophunzitsa zanu!
