Yesaya 1: 10, 16-20
| 1:10 | Mvetserani ku Mawu a Ambuye, inu atsogoleri a anthu a ku Sodomu. Mvetserani mosamalitsa chilamulo cha Mulungu wathu, E inu anthu a ku Gomora!. |
| 1:16 | Sambani, khala woyera, mundichotsere kuipa kwa zolinga zanu pamaso panga. Siyani kuchita zopotoka. |
| 1:17 | Phunzirani kuchita zabwino. Fufuzani chiweruzo, thandizani oponderezedwa, weruza mlandu wa ana amasiye, kuteteza mkazi wamasiye. |
| 1:18 | Ndiyeno yandikirani ndi kunditsutsa, atero Yehova. Ndiye, ngati machimo anu ali ofiira, adzayera ngati matalala; ndipo ngati ali ofiira ngati vermillion, adzakhala oyera ngati ubweya wa nkhosa. |
| 1:19 | Ngati mukulolera, ndipo Inu mundimvera Ine, pamenepo mudzadya zabwino za dziko. |
| 1:20 | Koma ngati simukufuna, ndipo mundikwiyitsa, pamenepo lupanga lidzakudyerani. Pakuti pakamwa pa Yehova pananena. |

Mateyu 23: 1-12
23:1 Then Jesus spoke to the crowds, and to his disciples,
23:2 kunena: “The scribes and the Pharisees have sat down in the chair of Moses.
23:3 Choncho, all things whatsoever that they shall say to you, observe and do. Komabe moona, do not choose to act according to their works. Pakuti iwo amati, but they do not do.
23:4 For they bind up heavy and unbearable burdens, and they impose them on men’s shoulders. But they are not willing to move them with even a finger of their own.
23:5 Zoonadi, they do all their works so that they may be seen by men. For they enlarge their phylacteries and glorify their hems.
23:6 And they love the first places at feasts, ndi mipando yoyamba m’masunagoge,
23:7 ndi moni pa msika, and to be called Master by men.
23:8 But you must not be called Master. For One is your Master, and you are all brothers.
23:9 And do not choose to call anyone on earth your father. For One is your Father, amene ali kumwamba.
23:10 Neither should you be called teachers. For One is your Teacher, the Christ.
23:11 Whoever is greater among you shall be your minister.
23:12 But whoever has exalted himself, shall be humbled. And whoever has humbled himself, shall be exalted.
