Miyambo 12:1-28
12 Wokonda malangizo* amakondanso kudziwa zinthu,+ koma wodana ndi chidzudzulo ndi wopanda nzeru.+
2 Munthu wabwino Yehova amakondwera naye,+ koma munthu wamaganizo oipa iye amamutcha woipa.+
3 Palibe munthu amene angakhazikike chifukwa chochita zoipa,+ koma muzu wa anthu olungama sudzagwedezedwa.+
4 Mkazi wabwino ndi chisoti cha ulemu kwa mwamuna wake,*+ koma mkazi wochita zinthu zochititsa manyazi ali ngati chowoletsa mafupa a mwamunayo.+
5 Maganizo a anthu olungama ndiwo chilungamo.+ Utsogoleri wa anthu oipa ndi wachinyengo.+
6 Mawu a anthu oipa amadikirira kukhetsa magazi,+ koma pakamwa pa anthu owongoka mtima m’pamene padzawapulumutse.+
7 Anthu oipa amagonjetsedwa n’kusakhalaponso,+ koma nyumba ya anthu olungama idzakhalapobe.+
8 Munthu adzatamandidwa chifukwa cha pakamwa pake panzeru,+ koma wa mtima wopotoka adzanyozedwa.+
9 Kuli bwino kukhala munthu wamba koma n’kukhala ndi wantchito, kusiyana n’kukhala wodzikuza koma wopanda chakudya.+
10 Wolungama amasamalira moyo wa chiweto chake,+ koma chisamaliro cha anthu oipa n’chankhanza.+
11 Wolima nthaka yake adzakhala ndi chakudya chokwanira,+ koma wofunafuna zinthu zopanda pake ndi wopanda nzeru mumtima mwake.+
12 Woipa amalakalaka nyama yokodwa mumsampha wa anthu oipa,+ koma muzu wa anthu olungama umabala zipatso.+
13 Munthu woipa amakodwa ndi kuchimwa kwa milomo yake,+ koma wolungama amachoka m’masautso.+
14 Munthu amakhutitsidwa ndi zabwino kuchokera ku zipatso za pakamwa pake,+ ndipo zochita za manja a munthu, zidzabwerera kwa iye.+
15 Njira ya munthu wopusa imakhala yolondola m’maso mwake,+ koma womvera malangizo ndi wanzeru.+
16 Munthu amene amasonyeza mkwiyo wake tsiku lomwelo ndi wopusa,+ koma wochenjera akachitiridwa chipongwe, amangozinyalanyaza.+
17 Wotulutsa mawu okhulupirika amanena zolungama,+ koma mboni yonama imanena zachinyengo.+
18 Pali munthu amene amalankhula mosaganizira ndi mawu olasa ngati lupanga,+ koma lilime la anthu anzeru limachiritsa.+
19 Mlomo wa choonadi+ ndi umene udzakhazikike kwamuyaya,+ koma lilime lachinyengo lidzangokhalapo kwa kanthawi.+
20 Chinyengo chimakhala mumtima mwa anthu okonza chiwembu,+ koma olimbikitsa mtendere amasangalala.+
21 Palibe chopweteka chimene chidzagwere wolungama,+ koma anthu oipa ndi amene tsoka lizidzangowagwera.+
22 Milomo yonama imam’nyansa Yehova,+ koma anthu ochita zinthu mokhulupirika amam’sangalatsa.+
23 Munthu wochenjera amabisa zimene akudziwa,+ koma mtima wa anthu opusa umalengeza zopusa.+
24 Dzanja la anthu akhama n’limene lidzalamulire,+ koma dzanja laulesi lidzagwira ntchito yaukapolo.+
25 Nkhawa mumtima mwa munthu ndi imene imauweramitsa,+ koma mawu abwino ndi amene amausangalatsa.+
26 Wolungama amayendera msipu wake, koma njira ya anthu oipa imawachititsa kuyenda uku ndi uku.+
27 Ulesi sungavumbulutse nyama zimene munthu akufuna kusaka,+ koma munthu wakhama ndiye chuma chamtengo wapatali cha munthu.
28 M’njira yachilungamo muli moyo,+ ndipo ulendo wa m’njira imeneyi suthera ku imfa.+
