3 “Sindidzalowa mʼnyumba mwanga

4 sindidzalola kuti maso anga agone,

7 “Tiyeni tipite ku malo ake okhalamo;
tiyeni tikamulambire pa mapazi ake.
8 ‘Dzukani Yehova, ndipo bwerani ku malo anu opumulira,
Inuyo ndi Bokosi la Chipangano limene limafanizira mphamvu zanu.
9 Ansembe anu avekedwe chilungamo;
anthu anu oyera mtima ayimbe nyimbo mwachimwemwe.’ ”
10 Chifukwa cha Davide mtumiki wanu,
musakane wodzozedwa wanu.
11 Yehova analumbira kwa Davide,

“Mmodzi wa ana ako

12 ngati ana ako azisunga pangano langa

13 Pakuti Yehova wasankha Ziyoni,
Iye wakhumba kuti akhale malo ake okhalamo:
14 “Awa ndi malo anga opumapo ku nthawi za nthawi;
ndidzakhala pano pa mpando waufumu, pakuti ndakhumba zimenezi.
15 Ndidzadalitsa mzindawu ndi zinthu zambiri;
anthu ake osauka ndidzawakhutitsa ndi chakudya.
16 Ndidzaveka ansembe ake chipulumutso,
ndipo anthu ake oyera mtima adzayimba nthawi zonse nyimbo zachimwemwe.
17 “Pano ndidzachulukitsa mphamvu za Davide
ndi kuyikapo nyale ya wodzozedwa wanga.
18 Ndidzaveka adani ake manyazi,
