1. Ndipo Hana anapemphera, natiMtima wanga umyuka mokondwera kwa Yehova,Nyanga yanga yakwezeka mwa Yehova;Pakamwa panga pakula kwa adani anga;Popeza ndikondwera m'cipulumutsocanu.
2. Palibe wina woyera ngati Yehova;Palibe wina koma Inu nokha;Palibenso thanthwe longa Mulungu wathu.
3. Musalankhulenso modzikuza kwambiri motero;M'kamwa mwanu musaturuke zolulutsa;Cifukwa Yehova ali Mulungu wanzeru,Ndipo iye ayesa zocita anthu.
4. Mauta a amphamvu anathyoka,Koma okhumudwawo amangiridwa ndi mphamvu m'cuuno.
5. Amene anakhuta anakasuma cakudya;Koma anjalawo anacira;Inde cumba cabala asanu ndi awiri:Ndipo iye amene ali ndi ana ambiri acita liwondewonde.
6. Yehova amapha, napatsa moyo:Iye amatsitsa kumanda, naukitsanso.
7. Yehova asaukitsa, nalemeza;Acepetsa, nakuzanso.
8. Amuutsa waumphawi m'pfumbi,Nanyamula wosowa padzala,Kukamkhalitsa kwa akalonga;Ndi kuti akhale naco colowa ca cimpando ca ulemerero;Cifukwa nsanamira za dziko lapansi nza Yehova,Ndipo iye anakhazika dziko pa izo,
9. Adzasunga mapazi a okoodedwaace,Koma oipawo adzawakhalitsa cete mumdima;Pakuti palibe munthu adzapambana ndi mphamvu,
10. Otsutsana ndi Yehova adzaphwanyika;Kumwamba iye adzagunda pa iwo:Yehova adzaweruza malekezero a dziko:Ndipo adzapatsa mphamvu mfumuyace,Nadzakweza nyanga ya wodzozedwa wace.
11. Ndipo Elikana anauka kwao ku Rama, mwanayo natumikira Yehova pamaso pa Eli wansembeyo.
12. Koma ana a Eli anali oipa; sanadziwa Yehova.
13. Ndipo macitidwe a ansembe akucitira anthu ndiwo, kuti pamene munthu ali yense akapereka nsembe, mnyamata wa wansembeyo akabwera, nyama iri ciwirire, ndi cobvuulira ca ngowe ca mana atatu m'dzanja lace;
14. nacipisa m'cimphuli, kapena mumkhate, kapena m'nkhali, kapena mumphika; yonse imene cobvuuliraco cinaiturutsa, wansembeyo anaitenga ikhale yace. Adafotero ku Silo ndi Aisrayeli onse akufika kumeneko.
15. Ngakhale asanayambe kupsereza mafuta, amadza mnyamata wa wansembe, namuuza wopereka nsembe, nati, Umpatse wansembeyo nyama yoti akaoce; pakuti safuna nyama yako yophika koma yaiwisi.
