1Ananu, mverani mwambo wa atate, nimutchere makutu mukadziwe luntha;

2pakuti ndikuphunzitsani zabwino; musasiye chilangizo changa.

3Pakuti ndinali mwana kwa atate wanga, wokondedwa ndi mai, ndine ndekha, sanabale wina.

4Atate nandiphunzitsa, nati kwa ine, mtima wako uumirire mau anga; sunga malamulo anga, nukhale ndi moyo.

5Tenga nzeru, tenga luntha; usaiwale, usapatuke pa mau a m'kamwa mwanga;

6usasiye nzeru, ndipo idzakusunga; uikonde, idzakutchinjiriza.

7Nzeru ipambana, tatenga nzeru; m'kutenga kwako konseko utenge luntha.

8Uilemekeze, ndipo idzakukweza; idzakutengera ulemu pamene uifungatira.

9Idzaika chisada cha chisomo pamtu pako; idzakupatsa korona wokongola.

10Tamvera mwananga, nulandire mau anga; ndipo zaka za moyo wako zidzachuluka.

11Ndakuphunzitsa m'njira ya nzeru, ndakuyendetsa m'mayendedwe olungama.

12Mapazi ako sadzaombana ulikuyenda; ukathamanga, sudzaphunthwa.

13Gwira mwambo, osauleka; uusunge; pakuti ndiwo moyo wako.

14Usalowe m'mayendedwe ochimwa, usayende m'njira ya oipa.

15Pewapo, osapitamo; patukapo, nupitirire.

16Pakuti akapanda kuchita zoipa, samagona; ndipo akapanda kukhumudwitsa wina, tulo tao tiwachokera.

17Pakuti amadya chakudya cha uchimo, namwa vinyo wa chifwamba.

18Koma mayendedwe a olungama akunga kuunika kwa mbandakucha, kunkabe kuwala kufikira usana woti mbee.

19Njira ya oipa ikunga mdima; sadziwa chimene chiwaphunthwitsa.

20Mwananga, tamvera mau anga; tcherera makutu ku zonena zanga.

21Asachoke kumaso ako; uwasunge m'kati mwa mtima wako.

22Pakuti ali moyo kwa omwe awapeza, nalamitsa thupi lao lonse.

23Chinjiriza mtima wako koposa zonse uzisunga; pakuti magwero a moyo atulukamo.

24Tasiya m'kamwa mokhota, uike patali milomo yopotoka.

25Maso ako ayang'ane m'tsogolo, zikope zako zipenye moongoka.

26Sinkasinkha bwino mayendedwe a mapazi ako; njira zako zonse zikonzeke.

27Usapatuke kudzanja lamanja kapena kulamanzere; suntha phazi lako kusiya zoipa.
