3 thangwe imwepo mukudziwa kuti cikhulupiro canu cikayezedwa mwa njira imweyi, cimbacitisa kuti mupirire.
4 Tsono imwepo mukapitiriza kupirira,* bzimwebzi bzin’dzakupfunzisani, ndipo imwepo mun’dzaphonya lini m’bzinthu bzentse nakuti palibe comwe mun’dzasaya.
5 Tenepo, penu alipo munthu omwe akusaya nzeru, apitirize kukumbira kwa Mulungu ndipo iye an’dzamupasa, pakuti ambapereka na manja mawiri kwa wentse ndipo ambaperekambo mwakusaya kutombodzera.*
6 Na tenepo, pitirizani kukumbira na cikhulupiro na mwakusaya kupenukira cinthu ciri-centse, pakuti ule omwe ambapenukira, ali ninga mabimbi ya m’nyanza yomwe yambatengedwa na mphepo, yaciyendesedwa uku na uku.

8 pakuti munthu umweyu ngwakupenukira-penukira ndipo ngwakusaya kukhazikika m’njira zace zentse.
9 Tenepo, m’bale omwe ngwakunyozeka* akondwe* thangwe tsapano wakuzidwa.
10 Ndipo munthu wakudala akondwe thangwe tsapano wacepesedwa, thangwe nyakudala an’dzafota ninga maluwa ya m’thengo.
11 Pakuti ninga momwe dzuwa limbacokera pabodzi na kupsa kwace licifotesa bzakumera, tenepo maluwa yace yambagwa ndipo kudeka kwace kumbanyembereka. Mwa njira ibodzi-bodziyi, nyakudala an’dzanyembereka pakati pa bzinthu bzace.
12 An’kondwa ni munthu ule omwe ambapirira akakhala akubonera, thangwe Mulungu akadzakomedwa naye, an’dzatambira mabaibai* ya moyo yomwe Yahova adalewa kuti an’dzapasa wentse omwe an’pitiriza kumufuna.
13 Munthu akakhala kuti akubonera, aleke kulewa kuti: “Mulungu ndiye omwe akundiboneresa” pakuti Mulungu angayezedwe lini na bzinthu bzakuipa ndipo Iye ambayeza lini munthu na bzinthu bzakuipa.
14 Tsono munthu ali-wentse ambayezedwa na bzomwe ambakhumba ndipo bzimwebzo ni bzomwe bzimbamukwewa na kumupumpsa.*
15 Patsogolo pace, bzakukhumbabzo bzikakula,* bzimbacitisa munthuyo kuti acite pikado* ndipo pikadoyo ikacitika, imbabweresa infa.
16 Abale wangu wakufunidwa, lekani kupumpsidwa.
17 Mphaso iri-yentse yabwino na yakulungama imbacokera kudzulu kwa Baba wa ceza, omwe ambacinja lini ninga mthunzi omwe umbacinja-cinja.
18 Thangwe ra kufuna kwace, ifepano tidabadwa mwa fala lace la cadidi, kuti tikhale bzisapo bzakuyambirira pa bzinthu bzomwe iye adalenga.
19 Dziwani ibzi abale wangu wakufunidwa: Munthu ali-wentse ambafulumize kubvesesa, ambacedwe kulewalewa ndipo aleke kumbafulumiza kukalipa,
20 pakuti ukali bwa munthu bumbabweresa lini cirungamo ca Mulungu.
21 Na tenepo, siyani bzakunyantsa bzentse na cinthu ciri-centse cakuipa* ndipo bvumani mwakubzicepesa* kuti mafala ya Mulungu yomwe yangakwanise kukupulumusani, yabzalidwe mwa imwepo.
22 Ndipo mbacitani bzomwe Fala la Mulungu limbalewa, sikuti kumbandobva basi mucimbabzipumpsa na nzeru zakunama.
23 Penu munthu ambandobva fala acileka kucita bzomwe falalo likulewa, munthu umweyo ali ninga munthu omwe akuwona nkhope yace pa supedyo.
24 Pakuti iye ambabziwona yekha pa supedyo ndipo akandocoka, ambayebweratu momwe iye aliri.
25 Tsono ule omwe ambanyang’anisisa bwino-bwino lamulo lakulungama lomwe limbabweresa ufulu, acipitiriza kucita bzimwebzo, iye an’dzakhala lini nyakubva omwe ambayebwa mwakamfulumize bzomwe wabvabzo koma an’dzakhala nyakucita bzomwe falalo limbalewa ndipo an’dzakhala wakukondwa pa bzinthu bzomwe ambacita.
26 Penu munthu akukumbuka kuti akunamata* Mulungu tsono akukwanisa lini kutonga* lirime lace, akubzipumpsa yekha* ndipo kunamata kwaceko n’kwapezi-pezi.
