Masalimo 2 - The Word of God in Contemporary Chichewa

1Nʼchifukwa chiyani anthu a mitundu ina akufuna kuchita chiwembu?

Akonzekeranji zopanda pake anthu?

2Mafumu a dziko lapansi akugwirizana nazo;

ndipo olamulira asonkhana pamodzi

kulimbana ndi Ambuye

ndi wodzozedwa wakeyo.

3Iwo akunena kuti, “Tiyeni timasule magoli awo

ndipo titaye zingwe zawo.”

4Wokhala mmwamba akuseka;

Ambuye akuwanyoza iwowo.

5Ndipo iye awadzudzula mu mkwiyo wake

ndi kuwaopseza mu ukali wake, kunena kuti,

6“Ine ndakhazikitsa mfumu yanga

pa Ziyoni, phiri langa loyera.”

7Ine ndidzalengeza zimene Yehova walamula:

Iye anati kwa Ine, “Iwe ndiwe mwana wanga;

lero Ine ndakhala Atate ako.

8Tandipempha,

ndipo ndidzachititsa kuti mitundu ya anthu ikhale cholowa chako;

malekezero a dziko lapansi kuti akhale chuma chako.

9Iweyo udzawalamulira ndi ndodo yaufumu yachitsulo;

udzawaphwanya zidutswazidutswa ngati zowumba zadothi.”

10Kotero, inu mafumu, chenjerani;

chenjezedwani, inu olamulira a dziko lapansi.

11Tumikirani Yehova mwa mantha

ndi kukondwerera ulamuliro wake monjenjemera.

12Mpsopsoneni mwanayo kuti angakwiye;

kuti mungawonongedwe mʼnjira zanu,

pakuti ukali wake utha kuuka mʼkanthawi kochepa.

Odala ndi onse amene amathawira kwa Iye.
