Nakumene ne fiteyo fya mfwa.+
7 Ilyo nalecula nalilile kuli Yehova,+

Lyena mwi tempele lyakwe alyumfwile ishiwi lyandi,

8 Isonde lyalitendeke ukusunkana no kutenta;+
Amashinte ya myulu yalitentele+
Kabili yalisunkene pantu balimukalifye.+
9 Mu myona yakwe mwafuukile icushi,
No mulilo uukali wafumine mu kanwa kakwe;+
Amalasha ayaleaka yafumine kuli ena.
10 Asendeke imyulu ilyo aleikila,+

11 Aninine pali kerubi+ kabili aishile alepupuka.
Alemoneka pa mapindo ya kwa malaika.+

Imfifi yali nga menshi ayafiita kabili nga makumbi ayafiita sana.
13 Ukubengeshima ukwafumine kuli ena kwalengele amalasha ayaleaka ya-aka sana.
14 Lyena Yehova atampile ukubulukuta ku muulu;+
Uwapulamo alengele ishiwi lyakwe lyaumfwika.+
15 Apoosele imifwi yakwe+ kabili alisalangenye abalwani bandi;
Abyashishe inkuba no kubafulunganya.+
16 Panshi ya bemba palimoneke;+
Umufula wa calo washele pa mbilibili pa mulandu wa kuti Yehova alikalipe,
Pa mulandu wa mupu wa maka uwalefuma mu myona yakwe.+
17 Atambike ukuboko kwakwe ninshi ali ku muulu;
Alinjikete e lyo anjabula mu menshi ayengi.+
18 Alimpuswishe ku balwani bandi abali na maka,+
Ampuswishe ku bampata, abali na maka ukuncila.
19 Balinjimiine pa bushiku nali na mafya,+
Lelo Yehova alingafwile.
20 Antwele ku cifulo uko nali no kucingililwa;+
Alimpuswishe pantu alintemenwe.+
21 Yehova alanambula pa mulandu wa kuti nalilungama;+
Alanambula pa mulandu wa kuti iminwe yandi ya kaele.+
22 Pantu ndakonka inshila sha kwa Yehova,
Kabili nshacita icabipa, e kutila nshasha Lesa wandi.
23 Nshalaba ubupingushi bwakwe bonse;+

Kabili nkataluka ku membu.+
25 Yehova nanambule pa mulandu wa kuti ndi mulungami,+
Pa mulandu wa kuti ndi wa kaele kuli ena.+
26 Ku wa cishinka mulaba aba cishinka;+
Ku wa kaele, uwa maka, mulaba aba kaele;+
27 Ku wasanguluka mulaba abasanguluka,+

28 Pantu mulapususha abaicefya,+
Lelo mulamona aba matutumuko kabili mulabacefya.+
29 Pantu muli nyali yandi, mwe Yehova;+

30 Nga mwangafwa kuti nalwisha ifipondo;

34 Alenga amakasa yandi yaba nga ya nsebula;
Alenga naiminina pa fifulo ifyasansuka.+
35 Asambilisha iminwe yandi ifya kulwa inkondo;
Amaboko yandi yalishiba ifya kubomfya ubuta bwa mukuba.
36 Mulampeela inkwela yenu iye pusukilo,
Kabili ukuicefya kwenu kulankusha.+
37 Mulakusha inshila umupita amakasa yandi;
Amakasa yandi tayakashelemuke.+
38 Nkapepeka abalwani bandi kabili nkabalofya;
Nshakabwele mpaka bakalobe.
39 Nkabashonaula kabili nkabalofya ica kuti tabakeme;+
Bakawila pa makasa yandi.
40 Mukampeela amaka ya kulwa inkondo;+
Mukalenga abalwani bandi bakawile pa ntanshi yandi.+
41 Mukalenga abalwani bandi bakambutuke;+
Nkalofya abampata.+
42 Balapunda mutuule, lelo takuba uubapususha;
Balalilila na kuli Yehova, lelo tabaasuka.+
43 Nkabashonaula mpaka bakabe ngo lukungu;
Nkabakandaula kabili nkabanyantaula nga matipa ya mu misebo.
44 Mukampususha ku bantu bandi abafwaya ifilubo muli ine.+
Mukancingilila pa kuti nkabe intungulushi ya nko;+
Abantu abo nshaishiba bakamombela.+
45 Aba ku fyalo fimbi bakesa kuli ine ninshi nabaipetamika;+
Ifyo bakomfwa pali ine fikalenga bakaleng’umfwila.
46 Aba ku fyalo fimbi bakaba no mwenso,
Bakesa baletutuma ukufuma mu malinga yabo ayakosa.
47 Yehova wa mweo! Icilibwe candi cicindikwe!+
Acindamikwe Lesa icilibwe ce pusukilo lyandi.+
48 Lesa wa cine alanandwilako;+
Alancimfishako abantu;+
49 Alampususha ku balwani bandi.
Munjimisha pa muulu+ wa bantu abansansa;
Mulampokolola ku munkalwe.+
50 E co nkamutashisha mu nko, mwe Yehova,+
Kabili ishina lyenu nkalimbila amalumbo:+
51 Alacita ifikalamba pa kuti apusushe imfumu yakwe;+
Alalanga uo asuba ukutemwa ukushipwa,
Davidi na bana bakwe umuyayaya.”+
