Revised Common Lectionary (Semicontinuous)
8 Tamverani bwenzi langa!
Taonani! Uyu akubwera apayu,
akulumphalumpha pa mapiri,
akujowajowa pa zitunda.
9 Bwenzi langa ali ngati gwape kapena mwana wa mbawala.
Taonani! Uyo wayima kuseri kwa khoma lathulo,
akusuzumira mʼmazenera,
akuyangʼana pa mpata wa zenera.
10 Bwenzi langa anayankha ndipo anati kwa ine,
“Dzuka bwenzi langa,
wokongola wanga, ndipo tiye tizipita.
11 Ona, nyengo yozizira yatha;
mvula yatha ndipo yapitiratu.
12 Maluwa ayamba kuoneka pa dziko lapansi;
nthawi yoyimba yafika,
kulira kwa njiwa kukumveka
mʼdziko lathu.
13 Mtengo wankhuyu ukubereka zipatso zake zoyambirira;
mitengo ya mpesa ya maluwa ikutulutsa fungo lake.
Dzuka bwenzi langa, wokongola wanga
tiye tizipita.”

35 Anatenganso pathupi pena, ndipo pamene anabereka mwana wamwamuna, iye anati, “Nthawi ino ndidzalemekeza Yehova.” Choncho anamutcha Yuda. Kenaka analeka kubereka.
