2 Asi pandakanga ndinyerere uye ndakadzikama, ndisingatauri kana chakanaka zvacho, kurwadziwa kwangu kwakawedzerwa.
Koma pamene ndinali chete osanena ngakhale kanthu kalikonse kabwino mavuto anga anachulukirabe.
3 Mwoyo wangu wakapisa mukati mangu, uye pandakafungisisa, moto ukapisa; ipapo ndakataura norurimi rwangu ndikati:
Mtima wanga unatentha mʼkati mwanga, ndipo pamene ndinkalingalira, moto unayaka; kenaka ndinayankhula ndi lilime langa:
4 “Ndiratidzei, imi Jehovha, magumo oupenyu hwangu nokuwanda kwamazuva angu; ndizivisei kupfuura kwoupenyu hwangu.
“Yehova ndionetseni mathero a moyo wanga ndi chiwerengero cha masiku anga; mundidziwitse kuti moyo wanga ndi wosakhalitsa motani.
5 Makaita mazuva angu soupamhi hwechanza changu; kuwanda kwamakore angu kwakaita sechinhu chisipo pamberi penyu. Upenyu hwomunhu mumwe nomumwe mweya bedzi.
Inu mwachititsa kuti masiku anga akhale ochepa kwambiri, kutalika kwa zaka zanga ndi kopanda phindu pamaso panu; moyo wa munthu aliyense ndi waufupi. (Sela)
6 Munhu anongori mumvuri zvaanofamba-famba hake: anofamba nomufaro mukuru, asi zvinongova pasina; anounganidza pfuma, asingazivi achazoitora.
Munthu ali ngati chithunzithunzi chake pamene akuyenda uku ndi uku: Iye amangovutika koma popanda phindu; amadzikundikira chuma, osadziwa kuti chidzakhala chayani.
7 “Asi zvino, Ishe, ndakamirireiko? Tariro yangu iri mamuri.
“Koma tsopano Ambuye kodi ndifunanso chiyani? Chiyembekezo changa chili mwa Inu.
8 Ndiponesei pakudarika kwangu kwose; regai kundiita chiseko chamapenzi.
Pulumutseni ku zolakwa zanga zonse; musandisandutse chonyozeka kwa opusa.
9 Ndakanga ndinyerere; handina kushamisa muromo wangu, nokuti ndimi makaita izvi.
Ine ndinali chete; sindinatsekule pakamwa panga pakuti Inu ndinu amene mwachita zimenezi.
10 Bvisai shamhu yenyu kwandiri; ndakundwa nokurova kworuoko rwenyu.
Chotsani mkwapulo wanu pa ine; ndagonjetsedwa ndi nkhonya ya dzanja lanu.
11 Munorayira uye munoranga vanhu nokuda kwezvivi zvavo, munoparadza pfuma yavo sechipfukuto, munhu mumwe nomumwe mweya zvawo. Sera
Inu mumadzudzula ndi kulanga anthu chifukwa cha tchimo lawo; mumawononga chuma chawo monga njenjete; munthu aliyense ali ngati mpweya. (Sela)
12 “Inzwai munyengetero wangu, imi Jehovha, rerekerai nzeve yenyu pandinochemera rubatsiro; regai kuva matsi pakuchema kwangu. Nokuti ndigere nemi somutorwa, somweni, sezvakanga zvakaita madzibaba angu ose.
“Imvani pemphero langa Inu Yehova, mverani kulira kwanga kopempha thandizo; musakhale chete pamene ndikulirira kwa Inu, popeza ndine mlendo wanu wosakhalitsa; monga anachitira makolo anga onse.
13 Ringirai kure neni, kuti ndimbofarazve ndisati ndabva uye ndisisipo.”
Musandiyangʼane mwaukali, choncho ndidzatha kusangalala ndisanafe ndi kuyiwalika.”
