Kuna nyakutsogolera nyimbo. Nyimbo ya Dhavidhi.
31 Ine ndisathawira kuna imwe Yahova.+
Lekani tawirisa kuti ndipaswe manyadzo.+
Ndipulumuseni thangwi ya ulungami wanu.+
2 Kotamani* toera mundibvesere.
Bwerani mwakucimbiza toera mudzandipulumuse.+
Khalani phiri yanga yakuthawira,
Mbuto yakutsidzikizika toera kundipulumusa.+
3 Thangwi ndimwe mwala wanga na citsidzikizo canga;+

6 Ine ndisaida ale analambira madzimunthu akusowa basa,
Mbwenye ndisanyindira Yahova.
7 Ine ndinadzatsandzaya kakamwe thangwi ya ufuni wanu wakukhonda mala,
Thangwi imwe musaona kuthabuka kwanga;+
Pontho musadziwa kunjipa kwa nyatwa zanga.*
8 Imwe nee mwandipereka mʼmanja mwa nyamalwa,
Mbwenye imwe mwandiikha pa mbuto yakutsidzikizika.*
9 Ndibvereni ntsisi Yahova, thangwi ndiri kuthabuka.
Nyatwa zacitisa kuti maso anga akhonde kuona mwadidi,+ pontho manungo anga* akhonde kukhala na mphambvu.+
10 Umaso wanga uli wakutsukwala kakamwe+
Thangwi yakutsukwala, pyaka pya umaso wanga pikumala na kubulira.+
Mphambvu zanga zikumala thangwi ya madodo anga;
Magogodo anga nkhabebve mphambvu.+
11 Anyamalwa anga onsene asandisingirira,+
Makamaka ale anakhala dhuzi na ine.
Pontho anthu anandidziwa asandigopa;
Angandiona pakweca asandithawa.+
12 Iwo andibulusa mʼmitima mwawo, mbandiduwala ninga ndafa;
Ndiri ninga nkhali yakusweka.
13 Ndabva pinthu pizinji pyakuipa pinalongwa na anthu;
Ndikugopa thangwi ndisathuswa mʼmbuto zonsene.+
Iwo asagumanyikana
Mbabverana toera kundipha.+
14 Mbwenye ine ndisanyindira imwe Yahova.+
Ine ndisalonga: “Imwe ndimwe Mulungu wanga.”+
15 Umaso wanga uli mʼmanja mwanu.
Ndipulumuseni mʼmanja mwa anyamalwa anga na mʼmanja mwa ale ananditcinga.+
16 Bverani ntsisi ntumiki wanu.+
Ndipulumuseni thangwi ya ufuni wanu wakukhonda mala.
17 Yahova, lekani kutawirisa kuti ndipaswe manyadzo ndingakucemerani.+
18 Citisani kuti milomo inalonga uthambi ikhonde kulonga,+
Milomo yakuti isapwaza, pontho isalonga mwakudzikuza thangwi ya munthu wakulungama.
19 Udidi wanu ndi ukulu kakamwe.+
Imwe mwaukoyera ale anakugopani,+
Pontho imwe mwaupangiza kuna anthu onsene, toera kuphedza ale anathawira kuna imwe.+
20 Imwe munadzaakoya pa mbuto yanu yakubisika kakamwe dhuzi na imwe+
Toera kuatsidzikiza ku pyakuipa pinanyerezera anthu toera kucita;
Imwe munaabisa pa mbuto yanu yacitsidzikizo
21 Mbasimbwe Yahova,
Thangwi iye apangiza ufuni wace wakukhonda mala kuna ine+ munjira yakudzumisa pikhali ine pa nyatwa.+
22 Ine ndasowa cakucita mbandilonga:

23 Funani Yahova, imwe monsene anthu akukhulupirika kuna iye!+
