Revised Common Lectionary (Semicontinuous)
11 Ndiphunzitseni njira yanu Yehova,
ndipo ndidzayenda mʼchoonadi chanu;
patseni mtima wosagawikana
kuti ndilemekeze dzina lanu.
12 Ndidzakutamandani Ambuye Mulungu wanga, ndi mtima wanga wonse;
ndidzalemekeza dzina lanu kwamuyaya.
13 Pakuti chikondi chanu nʼchachikulu kwa ine;
mwandipulumutsa ku malo ozama a manda.
14 Inu Mulungu wanga, anthu odzikuza akundithira nkhondo;
anthu ankhanza akufuna kundipha,
amene salabadira za Inu.
15 Koma Ambuye ndinu Mulungu wachifundo ndi wokoma mtima,
wosakwiya msanga, wodzaza ndi chikondi ndi wokhulupirika.
16 Tembenukirani kwa ine ndipo ndichitireni chifundo;
perekani mphamvu zanu kwa mtumiki wanu
ndipo pulumutsani mwana wa mdzakazi wanu.
17 Mundionetse chizindikiro cha ubwino wanu
kuti adani achione ndi kuchititsidwa manyazi,
pakuti Yehova mwandithandiza ndi kunditonthoza.
