31 ngati adzaswa malamulo anga
ndi kulephera kusunga ziphunzitso zanga,
32 Ine ndidzalanga tchimo lawo ndi ndodo,

35 Ndinalumbira kamodzi mwa kuyera kwanga
ndipo sindidzanama kwa Davide,
36 kuti zidzukulu zake zidzakhale kwamuyaya
ndipo mpando wake waufumu udzakhazikika pamaso panga ngati dzuwa;
37 udzakhazikika kwamuyaya monga mwezi,
mboni yokhulupirika mʼmitambo.

Ndipo anthu aja anamupempha Petro kuti akhale nawo masiku angapo.
