Revised Common Lectionary (Semicontinuous)
33 Imbirani Yehova mokondwera Inu olungama,
nʼkoyenera kuti owongoka mtima azitamanda Iyeyo.
2 Mutamandeni Yehova ndi pangwe;
muyimbireni Iye nyimbo pa zeze wa zingwe khumi.
3 Muyimbireni nyimbo yatsopano;
imbani mwaluso, ndipo fuwulani mwachimwemwe.
4 Pakuti mawu a Yehova ndi olungama ndi owona;
Iye ndi wokhulupirika pa zonse zimene amachita.
5 Yehova amakonda chilungamo ndipo amaweruza molungama;
dziko lapansi ladzaza ndi chikondi chake chosatha.
6 Ndi mawu a Yehova mayiko akumwamba anapangidwa,
zolengedwa zake ndi mpweya wa mʼkamwa mwake.
7 Iye amasonkhanitsa pamodzi madzi a mʼnyanja mʼmitsuko;
amayika zozama mʼnyumba zosungiramo.
8 Dziko lonse lapansi liope Yehova;
anthu onse amulemekeze Iye.
9 Pakuti Iye anayankhula ndipo zinakhalapo;
Iye analamulira ndipo zinakhazikika.
10 Yehova amalepheretsa chikonzero cha anthu a mitundu ina;
Iye amaphwanya zolinga za anthu ambiri.
11 Koma chikonzero cha Yehova chimakhala mpaka muyaya,
zolinga za mu mtima mwake pa mibado yonse.
12 Wodala mtundu wa anthu umene Mulungu wake ndi Yehova,
anthu amene Iye anawasankha kukhala cholowa chake.

21 Mfumu ya Sodomu inati kwa Abramu, “Ine undipatse anthu okhawo, koma katundu akhale wako.”
22 Koma Abramu anawuza mfumu ya Sodomu kuti, “Ndakweza manja anga kwa Yehova, Mulungu Wammwambamwamba, Mlengi wakumwamba ndi dziko lapansi, kulumbira 23 kuti sindidzalandira kanthu kalikonse kako, ngakhale utakhala ulusi chabe kapena chingwe cha nsapato, kuopa kuti ungamanene kuti, ‘Ndamulemeretsa Abramu.’ 24 Sindidzalandira kanthu kalikonse kupatula zokhazo zimene anthu anga adya ndi gawo la katundu la anthu amene ndinapita nawo monga Aneri, Esikolo ndi Mamre. Iwowa atenge gawo lawo.”
