Oyimba malipenga ndi oyimba nyimbo aja amayimba mogwirizana, monga liwu la munthu mmodzi, kutamanda ndi kuyamika Yehova. Mogwirizana ndi malipenga, ziwaya zamalipenga ndi zida zina, anakweza mawu awo motamanda Yehova poyimba kuti, “Yehova ndi wabwino; chikondi chake chikhala mpaka muyaya.” Ndipo Nyumba ya Mulungu wa Yehova inadzaza ndi mtambo,
