1 Ine Tiyago,+ bitcu wa Mulungu na wa Mbuya Yezu Kristu, ndiri kulembera madzindza 12 adabalalika mʼmbuto zakusiyana-siyana:
Tambirani mwanyikiro wanga!
2 Abale anga, khalani akutsandzaya mungathimbana na nyatwa zakusiyana-siyana,*+
3 thangwi imwe musadziwa kuti cikhulupiro canu cingayeserwa munjira ineyi, cinabala kupirira.+
4 Mbwenye tawirisani kuti kupirira kumalise basa yace, toera mukhale akukwana na adidi mu pinthu pyonsene, mbamukhonda kusowa cinthu.+
5 Natenepa, khala munthu nee ali na udziwisi wakukwana, mbapitirize kuuphemba kuna Mulungu,+ iye anadzaupaswa, thangwi Mulungu asapasa onsene mwakudzala manja,+ nee kusandika munthu.*+
6 Mbwenye iye asafunika kupitiriza kuphemba na cikhulupiro,+ mbakhonda kupenula,+ nee pangʼono pene; thangwi munthu anapenula alandana na bimbi ya mʼbara, yakuti isakwatwa na mphepo mbiendeswa uku na uku.
7 Mwandimomwene, munthu unoyu mbaleke dikhira kuti anapaswa cinthu na Yahova;*
8 iye ndi munthu wakupenula,+ wakukhonda khazikika munjira zace zonsene.
9 Mbwenye mbatsandzaye* mʼbale wakupwazika thangwi cincino iye akuzwa,+
10 pontho mʼbale wakupfuma mbatsandzaye thangwi cincino iye acepeswa,+ thangwi nyakupfuma anadzazambazika ninga maluwa a ntsanga.
11 Thangwi dzuwa ingabuluka mbitoma kupisa kakamwe, isaumisa muti, penepo maluwa ace asagwa, kubalika kwa muti mbakumala. Munjira ibodzi ene, nyakupfuma anadzazambazika mu ndzidzi unapitiriza iye kudzudzumika na mpfuma zace.+
12 Nyakutsandzaya ndi munthu anapitiriza kupirira nyatwa,+ thangwi angaoniwa kuti ndi wakuthema anadzatambira nthimba ya umaso,+ wakuti Yahova* apikira toera kupasa ale anapitiriza kunfuna.+
13 Munthu angathimbana na nyatwa, mbaleke kulonga kuti: “Ndiri kuyeserwa na Mulungu.” Thangwi Mulungu nkhabe kuyeserwa na pinthu pyakuipa, pontho iye nkhabe kuyesera munthu.
14 Mbwenye mʼbodzi na mʼbodzi asayeserwa thangwi yakukwatika mbapeuswa* na kusirira kwace.+
15 Natenepa, kusirira kungakula, kusabala madawo; madawo angamala kucitwa, asabweresa kufa.+
16 Abale anga akufunika, lekani kunyengezeka.
17 Muoni onsene wadidi na wakulungama usabuluka kudzulu,+ kuna Baba wa ceza,+ iye nkhabe kucinja ninga nʼthundzi wakuti nkhabe kukhazikika.+
18 Thangwi yakufuna kwace, ife tabalwa kubulukira mʼmafala a undimomwene,+ toera munjira inango, ife tikhale misapo yakutoma pakati pa anthu adacita iye.+
19 Abale anga akufunika, dziwani kuti: Munthu asafunika kukhala wakucimbiza kubva, wakudembuka kulonga,+ wakudembuka kuipirwa,+
20 thangwi ukali wa munthu nkhabe kubweresa ulungami wa Mulungu. +
21 Natenepa, siyani makhaliro onsene akunyanyasa na ntundu onsene wa uipi,*+ mbamutawira mwakucepeseka* kuti mafala a Mulungu akuti anakwanisa kukupulumusani* abzwalwe muna imwe.
22 Mbwenye khalani anyakucita pinalonga mafala,+ tayu anyakubva basi, mbamunyengezeka mwekhene na manyerezero apezi.
23 Thangwi munthu angakhala nyakubva mafala, mbakhonda kucita pinalonga iwo,+ iye asalandana na munthu anaona nkhope yace pa supeyu.
24 Thangwi iye asayangʼanika ekhene, mbaenda pyace, mbaduwala mwakucimbiza kuti iye ali tani.
25 Mbwenye ule anayangʼanisisa mwadidi mwambo wakulungama,+ wakuti usapasa ufulu, mbapitiriza kuubvera, iye nee asakhala nyakubva wakuti asaduwala mwakucimbiza pinabva iye, mbwenye asakhala nyakucita pinalonga mafala; pontho anadzakhala wakutsandzaya mu pinthu pinacita iye.+
26 Khala munthu asanyerezera kuti asalambira Mulungu, mbwenye mbakhonda kutonga* lirimi yace,+ munthu unoyu akunyengeza ntima wace, pontho kulambira kwace ndi kwakusowa basa.
27 Ntundu wa ulambiri* wakuti ndi wakucena na wakusowa midonthi mʼmaonero a Mulungu Babathu ndi uyu: Kuphedza* ana aumphawi+ na akazi adaferwa na amunawo+ mu nyatwa zawo,+ mbatipitiriza kukhala akusowa midonthi ya dziko.+
