Pakuti Iye wandiveka zovala zachipulumutso,

11 Monga momwe nthaka imameretsa mbewu
ndiponso monga munda umakulitsa mbewu zimene anadzala,
momwemonso Ambuye Yehova adzaonetsa chilungamo ndi matamando
pamaso pa mitundu yonse ya anthu.
Dzina Latsopano la Ziyoni
62 Chifukwa chokonda Ziyoni sindidzakhala chete,
chifukwa chokonda Yerusalemu sindidzakhala chete,
mpaka chilungamo chake chitaoneka poyera ngati kuwala,
ndi chipulumutso chake chitaoneka ngati sakali yoyaka.
2 Mitundu ya anthu idzaona iwe utapambana pa nkhondo
ndipo mafumu onse adzaona ulemerero wako.
Adzakuyitanira dzina latsopano
limene adzakupatse ndi Yehova.
3 Udzakhala ngati chipewa chaulemerero mʼdzanja la Yehova,
ndi ngati nduwira yaufumu mʼdzanja la Mulungu wako.

3 Mutamandeni, inu dzuwa ndi mwezi,

7 Tamandani Yehova pa dziko lapansi,

inu mitengo ya zipatso ndi mikungudza yonse,
10 inu nyama zakuthengo ndi ngʼombe zonse,
inu zolengedwa zingʼonozingʼono ndi mbalame zowuluka.
11 Inu mafumu a dziko lapansi ndi anthu a mitundu yonse,
inu akalonga ndi olamulira a dziko lapansi.
12 Inu anyamata ndi anamwali,
inu nkhalamba ndi ana omwe.
13 Onsewo atamande dzina la Yehova
pakuti dzina lake lokha ndi lolemekezeka;
ulemerero wake ndi woopsa pa dziko lapansi pano ndi kumwamba komwe.
14 Iye wakwezera nyanga anthu ake,
matamando a anthu ake onse oyera mtima,
Aisraeli, anthu a pamtima pake.
Tamandani Yehova.
4 Koma nthawi itakwana, Mulungu anatumiza Mwana wake, wobadwa mwa mayi, wobadwa pansi pa lamulo, 5 kudzawombola amene anali pansi pa lamulo, kuti tilandiridwe monga ana. 6 Ndipo popeza ndinu ana, Mulungu anatumiza Mzimu wa Mwana wake kuti alowe mʼmitima mwathu, Mzimu amene amafuwula kuti, “Abba, Atate.” 7 Choncho sindiwenso kapolo, koma mwana wa Mulungu. Tsono popeza ndiwe mwana wake, Mulungu wakusandutsanso mlowamʼmalo.
22 Nthawi yoyeretsedwa kwawo itatha, monga mwa lamulo la Mose, Yosefe ndi Mariya anapita naye ku Yerusalemu kukamupereka kwa Ambuye. 23 (Monga mmene zinalembedwera mu lamulo la Ambuye kuti, “Muzikapereka kwa Ambuye mwana aliyense wamwamuna woyamba kubadwa”), 24 ndi kupereka nsembe posunga zimene zinanenedwa mulamulo la Ambuye: “Njiwa ziwiri kapena mawunda ankhunda awiri.”
25 Ndipo taonani, mu Yerusalemu munali munthu wotchedwa Simeoni, amene anali wolungama ndi wodzipereka. Iye ankadikira chitonthozo cha Israeli, ndipo Mzimu Woyera anali pa iye. 26 Mzimu Woyera anamuwululira kuti sadzafa asanaone Khristu wa Ambuye. 27 Motsogozedwa ndi Mzimu Woyera, iye anapita ku bwalo la Nyumba ya Mulungu. Makolo ake a Yesu atabwera naye kuti achite naye mwambo malingana ndi malamulo, 28 Simeoni anamunyamula mʼmanja mwake nayamika Mulungu, nati:
29 “Ambuye waulamuliro, monga munalonjeza,
tsopano lolani kuti mtumiki wanu apite mu mtendere.
30 Pakuti maso anga aona chipulumutso chanu,
31 chimene Inu munakonza pamaso pa anthu onse,
32 kuwala kowunikira anthu a mitundu ina
ndi kwa ulemerero kwa anthu anu Aisraeli.”
33 Abambo ndi amayi a Mwanayo anadabwa chifukwa cha zimene zinanenedwa za Iye. 34 Kenaka Simeoni anawadalitsa ndipo anati kwa Mariya amayi ake: “Mwana uyu wakonzedwa kukhala kugwa ndi kudzuka kwa ambiri mu Israeli, ndi kukhala chizindikiro chimene adzayankhula motsutsana nacho, 35 kotero kuti malingaliro a mitima ya ambiri adzawululidwa. Ndipo lupanga lidzabaya moyo wakonso.”
36 Panalinso mneneri wamkazi, dzina lake Ana, mwana wa Fanuelo, wa fuko la Aseri. Anali wokalamba kwambiri; anakhala ndi mwamuna wake zaka zisanu ndi ziwiri atakwatiwa, 37 ndipo kenaka anakhala wamasiye mpaka pamene anali ndi zaka 84. Iye sanachoke mʼNyumba ya Mulungu koma ankapembedza usiku ndi usana, kusala kudya ndi kupemphera. 38 Pa nthawiyo pamene ankapita kwa iwo, iye anayamika Mulungu ndi kuyankhula za Mwanayo kwa onse amene ankayembekezera chipulumutso cha Yerusalemu.
39 Yosefe ndi Mariya atachita zonse zimene zinkafunikira ndi lamulo la Ambuye, anabwerera ku Galileya ku mudzi wa Nazareti. 40 Ndipo Mwanayo anakula nakhala wamphamvu; Iye anadzazidwa ndi nzeru, ndipo chisomo cha Mulungu chinali pa Iye.
