Yobu

1Pamenepo Yobu anayankha Yehova kuti,

2“Ndikudziwa kuti Inu mungathe kuchita zinthu zonse;

chimene mufuna kuchita wina sangaletse konse.

3Munandifunsa kuti, ‘Kodi ndiwe yani amene ukufuna kusokoneza uphungu wanga ndi mawu opanda nzeru?

Zoonadi ndinayankhula zimene sindinazimvetse,

zinthu zodabwitsa kwambiri kwa ine zimene sindinazidziwe.

4“Inu munandiwuza kuti, ‘Mvetsetsa tsopano ndipo ndidzayankhula;

ndidzakufunsa

ndipo iwe udzandiyankhe.’

5Ndinkangomva za Inu ndi makutu anga,

koma tsopanonso ndakuonani ndi maso anga.

6Nʼchifukwa chake ndi kuchita manyazi,

ndikulapa podzithira fumbi ndi phulusa.”
