3 Iye ananyozedwa ndi kukanidwa ndi anthu,
munthu amene moyo wake unali wamasautso, wozolowera zowawa,
ndipo anali ngati munthu amene anzake amaphimba nkhope zawo akamuona.
Iye ananyozedwa, ndipo ife sitinamuyese kanthu.
4 Ndithudi, iye anamva zowawa mʼmalo mwa ife;
ndipo anasautsidwa mʼmalo mwathu.
Koma ife tinkaganiza kuti ndi Mulungu amene akumulanga,
kumukantha ndi kumusautsa.
5 Koma iye analasidwa chifukwa cha zolakwa zathu,
ndipo anamuzunza chifukwa cha zoyipa zathu;
iye analangidwa kuti ife tikhale ndi mtendere,
ndipo ndi mabala ake ife tinachiritsidwa.
6 Ife tonse, ngati nkhosa, tasochera,
aliyense mwa ife akungodziyendera;
ndipo Yehova wamusenzetsa
zoyipa zathu zonse.
7 Anthu anamuzunza ndi kumusautsa,
koma sanayankhule kanthu.
Monga mwana wankhosa wopita naye kokamupha amachitira,
kapena monga nkhosa imakhalira duu poyimeta,
momwemonso iye sanatsekule pakamwa pake.
9 Anamukonzera manda ake pamodzi ndi anthu oyipa
ndipo anamuyika mʼmanda pamodzi ndi anthu achuma,
ngakhale kuti iye sanachite za chiwawa,
kapena kuyankhula za chinyengo.
12 Motero Ine ndidzamupatsa ulemu pamodzi ndi akuluakulu,
adzagawana zofunkha ndi ankhondo amphamvu,
popeza anapereka moyo wake mpaka kufa,
ndipo anamuyika mʼgulu la anthu olakwa kuti akhululukidwe.
Pakuti iye anasenza machimo a anthu ambiri,
ndipo anawapempherera anthu olakwa.
