12 Haiwa, kutinhira kwendudzi zhinji, dzinotinhira sokutinhira kwegungwa! Haiwa, kuomba kwamarudzi anoomba kufanana nokutinhira kwemvura zhinji!
Aa, mkokomo wa anthu a mitundu yambiri, akusokosa ngati kukokoma kwa nyanja! Aa, phokoso la anthu a mitundu ina, akusokosa ngati mkokomo wa madzi amphamvu!
13 Kunyange vanhu vakaomba sokutinhira kwamafungu emvura, paanovatuka vachatizira kure, vachidzingirirwa nemhepo sehundi pamusoro pezvikomo, kufanana nouswa hunozungunuswa pamberi pedutu guru.
Ngakhale ankhondo a mitundu ina akubwera ndi mkokomo ngati wa madzi ambiri, koma adzathawira kutali Mulungu akadzawadzudzula. Yehova adzawapirikitsa ngati mankhusu owuluka ndi mphepo pa phiri, ndi ngati fumbi la kamvuluvulu asanayambe.
