13 Wachinyamata wosauka koma wanzeru aposa mfumu yokalamba koma yopusa imene simvanso malangizo.

30 Ngakhale achinyamata amalefuka ndi kufowoka,

ndipo achinyamata amapunthwa ndi kugwa;

31 koma iwo amene amakhulupirira Yehova

adzalandira mphamvu zatsopano.

Adzawuluka ngati chiwombankhanga;

28 "Ndipo patapita nthawi,

ndidzakhuthulira Mzimu wanga pa anthu onse.

Ana anu aamuna ndi ana anu aakazi adzanenera,

anyamata anu adzaona masomphenya.

29 Ngakhalenso pa antchito anga aamuna ndi aakazi

17 Kwa anyamata anayiwa Mulungu anapereka chidziwitso ndi kuzindikira bwino mitundu yonse ya zolembedwa ndi za maphunziro. Ndipo Danieli ankatanthauzira masomphenya ndi maloto a mitundu yonse.

18 Ndipo kumapeto kwa masiku amene mfumu inayika kuti adzaonetse anyamatawa ku nyumba yake, mkulu wa nduna za mfumu uja anawapereka iwo kwa Nebukadinezara. 19 Mfumu inayankhula nawo, ndipo panalibe wofanana ndi Danieli; Hananiya Misaeli ndi Azariya; Choncho analowa ndi kukhala otumikira mfumu.

29 Ulemerero wa achinyamata uli mu mphamvu zawo,

imvi ndi ulemerero wa anthu okalamba.

11 Ngakhale mwana amadziwika ndi zochita zake,

ngati zochita zake zili zoyera ndi zoyenera.

9 Kodi mnyamata angathe bwanji kuyeretsa mayendedwe ake?

Akawasamala potsata mawu anu.

11 Ndasunga mawu anu mu mtima mwanga

kuti ndisakuchimwireni.

5 Pakuti Inu mwakhala chiyembekezo changa, Inu Ambuye Wamphamvuzonse,

13 Onsewo atamande dzina la Yehova

pakuti dzina lake lokha ndi lolemekezeka;

ulemerero wake ndi woopsa pa dziko lapansi pano ndi kumwamba komwe.

1 Iyi ndi miyambi ya Solomoni mwana wa Davide, mfumu ya Israeli:

2 Ndi yothandiza kuti munthu adziwe nzeru ndi malangizo;

kuti amvetse mawu a matanthauzo ozama;

3 kuti alandire malangizo othandiza kuti achite zinthu mwanzeru,

akhale wangwiro, wachilungamo ndiponso wosakondera.

4 Ndi yothandiza munthu wamba kuti aphunzire nzeru za kuchenjera,

achinyamata kudziwa zinthu bwino ndi kulingalira.

19 Tamvera mwana wanga, ndipo ukhale wanzeru,

mtima wako uwuyendetse mʼnjira yabwino.

20 Usakhale pakati pa anthu amene amaledzera

kapena pakati pa anthu amene amadya nyama mwadyera.

21 Paja anthu oledzera ndi adyera amadzakhala amphawi

ndipo aulesi adzavala sanza.

22 Mvera abambo ako amene anakubala,

usanyoze amayi ako pamene akalamba.

Ndimalingalira zinthu zokupatsani chiyembekezo chenicheni pa za mʼtsogolo. 12 Nthawi imeneyo mudzandiyitana, ndi kunditama mopemba ndipo ndidzakumverani. 13 Mudzandifunafuna ndipo mudzandipeza. Mukadzandifuna ndi mtima wanu wonse 14 mudzandipezadi," akutero Yehova, "ndipo ndidzakubwezerani zabwino zanu. Ndidzakusonkhanitsani kuchokera ku mayiko onse ndi kumalo konse kumene munali," akutero Yehova, "ndipo ndidzakubweretsani kumalo kumene munali ndisanakuchotseni kukupititsani ku ukapolo."

7 Ukhale wamphamvu ndi wolimba mtima kwambiri. Usamale ndithu kuti umvere malamulo onse amene mtumiki wanga Mose anakupatsa. Usachoke pa malamulo anga ndipo kulikonse kumene udzapite udzapambana. 8 Uziwerenga Buku la Malamuloli, uzilingalira zolembedwa mʼmenemo usana ndi usiku, kuti uchite zonse zimene zinalembedwamo. Ukamatero udzapeza bwino ndi kupambana. 9 Paja ndinakulamula kuti ukhale wamphamvu ndi wolimba mtima. Choncho usamachite mantha kapena kutaya mtima popeza Ine Yehova Mulungu wako ndidzakhala nawe kulikonse kumene udzapite."

5 Momwemonso, inu anyamata gonjerani amene ndi akulu. Inu nonse mukhale odzichepetsa kuti mutumikirane, chifukwa,

"Mulungu amatsutsana nawo odzikuza,

koma amapereka chisomo kwa odzichepetsa."

6 Choncho, mudzichepetse pamaso pa Mulungu wamphamvu, kuti pa nthawi yake adzakukwezeni.

14 Ana okondedwa, ndikukulemberani

chifukwa mumawadziwa Atate.

Abambo, ndikukulemberani

Inu anyamata, ndikukulemberani

Mawu a Mulungu amakhala mwa inu

13 Tiyeni tikhale moyenera monga nthawi ya masana, osati mʼmagulu amadyerero, achiwerewere ndi kuledzera, mʼmadama ndi zonyansa komanso osati mʼmagawano ndi nsanje.

27 Nʼkwabwino kuti munthu asenze goli
