8Iwo amadyerera zinthu zambiri za mʼnyumba yanu;

10Pitirizani chikondi chanu pa iwo amene amakudziwani,

chilungamo chanu kwa olungama mtima.

11Musalole kuti phazi la wodzikuza libwere kulimbana nane,

kapena dzanja la oyipa kundithamangitsa.

12Onani momwe ochita zoyipa agonera atagwa,

aponyeni pansi, kuti asathe kudzukanso!
