24 Dziko lapansi ndi la Yehova ndi zonse zimene zili mʼmenemo,
dziko ndi onse amene amakhala mʼmenemo;
2 pakuti Iye ndiye anayika maziko ake pa nyanja
ndi kulikhazika pamwamba pa madzi.
3 Ndani angakwere phiri la Yehova?
Ndani angathe kuyima pa malo ake opatulika?
4 Iye amene ali ndi mʼmanja moyera ndi mtima woyera,
amene sapereka moyo wake kwa fano

5 Iyeyo adzalandira madalitso kwa Yehova
ndipo Mulungu mpulumutsi wake adzagamula kuti alibe mlandu.
6 Umenewo ndiwo mʼbado wa amene amafunafuna Yehova;
amene amafunafuna nkhope yanu, Inu Mulungu wa Yakobo.
