Mwala wa Moyo ndi Anthu Osankhidwa

4Pamene mukubwera kwa Iye, amene ndi Mwala wa moyo, umene anthu anawukana, koma Mulungu anawusankha kuti ndi wa mtengowapatali, 5inunso, mukhale ngati miyala ya moyo yoti Mulungu amangire nyumba yake yauzimu kuti mukhale ansembe opatulika, opereka nsembe zauzimu zovomerezeka ndi Mulungu mwa Yesu Khristu. 6Pakuti mʼMalemba mwalembedwa kuti,

“Taonani, ndikuyika mwala wa maziko mu Ziyoni,

7Tsono kwa inu okhulupirira, mwalawo ndi wamtengowapatali. Koma kwa amene sakhulupirira,

“Mwala umene amisiri anawukana
