1 Dziko lapansi ndi la Yehova ndi zonse zimene zili mʼmenemo,

dziko ndi onse amene amakhala mʼmenemo;

2 pakuti Iye ndiye anayika maziko ake pa nyanja

ndi kulikhazika pamwamba pa madzi.

3 Ndani angakwere phiri la Yehova?

Ndani angathe kuyima pa malo ake opatulika?

4 Iye amene ali ndi mʼmanja moyera ndi mtima woyera,

amene sapereka moyo wake kwa fano

kapena kulumbira mwachinyengo.

5 Iyeyo adzalandira madalitso kwa Yehova

ndipo Mulungu mpulumutsi wake adzagamula kuti alibe mlandu.

6 Umenewo ndiwo mʼbado wa amene amafunafuna Yehova;

amene amafunafuna nkhope yanu, Inu Mulungu wa Yakobo.
