1 Yamikani Yehova chifukwa ndi wabwino; pakuti chikondi chake ndi chosatha.
Mbongeni uThixo ngoba ulungile, uthando lwakhe lumi laphakade.
2 Owomboledwa a Yehova anene zimenezi amene Iyeyo anawawombola mʼdzanja la mdani,
Akuthi abahlengiweyo bakaThixo batsho lokhu, labo abahlenga esandleni sesitha,
3 iwo amene anawasonkhanitsa kuchokera ku mayiko, kuchokera kumadzulo ndi kummawa, kuchokera kumpoto ndi kummwera.
labo abaqoqa emazweni kusuka empumalanga kusiya entshonalanga, kusuka enyakatho laseningizimu.
4 Ena anayendayenda mʼchipululu mopanda kanthu, osapeza njira yopitira ku mzinda kumene akanakakhazikikako.
Abanye bantula egwaduleni lwenkangala, baswela indlela eya emzini ababengahlala khona.
5 Iwo anamva njala ndi ludzu, ndipo miyoyo yawo inafowokeratu.
Balamba boma, impilo zabo zancipha.
6 Pamenepo analirira Yehova mʼmavuto awo ndipo Iye anawapulumutsa ku masautso awo.
Basebekhala kuThixo besekuhluphekeni kwabo, wasebakhulula osizini lwabo.
7 Iye anawatsogolera mʼnjira yowongoka kupita ku mzinda umene anakakhazikikako.
Wabahola ngendlela eqondileyo baya edolobheni lapho ababengahlala khona.
8 Ayamike Yehova chifukwa cha chikondi chake chosatha ndi chifukwa cha machitidwe ake odabwitsa kwa anthu onse,
Ngakho kabambonge uThixo ngothando lwakhe olungaphuthiyo lezenzo zakhe ezimangalisayo azenzela abantu,
9 pakuti Iye wapha ludzu la munthu womva ludzu ndipo wakhutitsa wanjala ndi zinthu zabwino.
ngoba ubenza bakholwe abomileyo asuthise abalambileyo ngezinto ezinhle.
10 Ena anakhala mu mdima ndi mʼchisoni chachikulu, amʼndende ovutika mʼmaunyolo achitsulo,
Abanye bahlala emnyameni lasethunzini elinzima beyizibotshwa ezihluphekayo zibotshwe ngamaketane ensimbi,
11 pakuti iwowo anawukira mawu a Mulungu ndi kunyoza uphungu wa Wammwambamwamba.
ngoba babewahlamukele amazwi kaNkulunkulu beyisa iseluleko soPhezukonke.
12 Kotero Iye anawapereka kuti agwire ntchito yakalavulagaga; anagwa pansi ndipo panalibe woti awathandize.
Ngakho wabathwalisa umsebenzi onzima; bawa kodwa kungekho ongabasiza.
13 Pamenepo analirira Yehova mʼmasautso awo ndipo Iye anawapulumutsa ku masautso awo.
Ngakho basebekhala kuThixo besekuhluphekeni kwabo wabasindisa osizini lwabo.
14 Yehova anawatulutsa mu mdima ndi mʼchisoni chachikulu ndipo anadula maunyolo awo.
Wabakhupha emnyameni lethunzini elinzima waqamula amaketane abo.
15 Ayamike Yehova chifukwa cha chikondi chake chosatha ndi machitidwe ake odabwitsa kwa anthu onse,
Ngakho kabambonge uThixo ngothando lwakhe olungaphuthiyo lezenzo zakhe ezimangalisayo azenzela abantu,
16 pakuti Iye amathyola zipata zamkuwa ndi kudula pakati mipiringidzo yachitsulo.
ngoba uyawafohloza amasango ethusi ephule imigoqo yensimbi.
17 Ena anakhala zitsiru chifukwa cha njira zawo zowukira, ndipo anamva zowawa chifukwa cha mphulupulu zawo.
Abanye baba yiziwula ngenxa yezindlela zabo zokuhlamuka badliwa yizinhlupheko ngenxa yokuxhwala kwabo.
18 Iwo ananyansidwa ndi chakudya chilichonse ndipo anafika pafupi ndi zipata za imfa.
Benyanya konke ukudla balengela emasangweni okufa.
19 Pamenepo analirira Yehova mʼmasautso awo ndipo Iye anawapulumutsa ku masautso awowo.
Bakhala kuThixo besekuhluphekeni kwabo, wabasindisa osizini lwabo.
20 Iye anatumiza mawu ake ndi kuwachiritsa; anawalanditsa ku manda.
Wathumela ilizwi lakhe labasilisa; wabahlenga engcwabeni.
21 Ayamike Yehova chifukwa cha chikondi chake chosatha ndi machitidwe ake odabwitsa kwa anthu.
Kabambonge uThixo ngothando lwakhe olungaphuthiyo lezenzo zakhe ezimangalisayo ebantwini.
22 Apereke nsembe yachiyamiko ndi kufotokoza za ntchito zake ndi nyimbo zachimwemwe.
Kabenze imihlatshelo yeminikelo yokubonga bafakaze ngezenzo zakhe zonke ngezingoma zokuthokoza.
23 Ena anayenda pa nyanja mʼsitima zapamadzi; Iwo anali anthu amalonda pa nyanja yayikulu.
Abanye bawela olwandle ngemikhumbi; babengabathengisi emanzini abanzi.
24 Anaona ntchito za Yehova, machitidwe ake odabwitsa mʼnyanja yakuya.
Bayibona imisebenzi kaThixo, izenzo zakhe ezimangalisayo ekujuleni.
25 Pakuti Iye anayankhula ndi kuwutsa mphepo yamkuntho imene inabweretsa mafunde ataliatali.
Ngoba wakhuluma kwaqubuka isiphepho esasukumisa amagagasi aba laphaya.
26 Sitima za pamadzizo zinatukulidwa mmwamba ndi kutsikira pansi pakuya; pamene amawonongeka, kulimba mtima kwawo kunasungunuka.
Akhwela athinta emazulwini, ehla ayatshona ezinzikini; bekuleyongozi isibindi sabo samemetheka saphela.
27 Anachita chizungulire ndi kudzandira ngati anthu oledzera; anali pa mapeto a moyo wawo.
Bazigxobagxoba badiyazela njengabantu abadakiweyo; baphelelwa lulwazi.
28 Pamenepo analirira Yehova mʼmasautso awo ndipo Iyeyo anawapulumutsa ku masautso awo.
Basebekhala kuThixo besekuhluphekeni kwabo, wabakhupha esizini lwabo.
29 Yehova analetsa namondwe, mafunde a mʼnyanja anatontholetsedwa.
Wasethulisa isiphepho ngokunyenyeza; amagagasi olwandle aphola athi cwaka.
30 Anali osangalala pamene kunakhala bata, ndipo Iye anawatsogolera ku dooko limene amalifuna.
Bajabula bonke sekudedile, wabahola wabasa ethekwini ababelifuna.
31 Ayamike Yehova chifukwa cha chikondi chake chosatha ndi machitidwe ake odabwitsa kwa anthu.
Kabambonge uThixo ngothando lwakhe olungaphuthiyo lezenzo zakhe ezimangalisayo ebantwini.
32 Akuze Iye mu msonkhano wa anthu ndi kumutamanda pabwalo la akuluakulu.
Kabamphakamise emhlanganweni wabantu bamdumise enkundleni yabadala.
33 Iye anasandutsa mitsinje kukhala chipululu, akasupe otuluka madzi kukhala nthaka yowuma,
Waguqula imifula yaba yinkangala, imithombo egelezayo yaba ngumhlabathi owomileyo,
34 ndiponso nthaka yachonde kukhala nthaka yamchere, chifukwa cha kuyipa kwa amene amakhala kumeneko.
lomhlabathi olezithelo waba lugwadule oluletshwayi, ngenxa yobubi balabo ababehlala khona.
35 Anasandutsa chipululu kukhala mayiwe a madzi ndi nthaka yowuma kukhala akasupe a madzi oyenda;
Waguqula inkangala yaba ngamachibi amanzi lomhlabathi owomileyo waba yimithombo egelezayo;
36 kumeneko Iye anabweretsa anthu anjala kuti azikhalako, ndipo iwo anamanga mzinda woti akhazikikeko.
lapho waletha abalambileyo ukuba bahlale khona, khonapho basungula umuzi ababezahlala kuwo.
37 Anafesa mbewu mʼminda ndi kudzala mipesa ndipo anakolola zipatso zochuluka;
Bahlanyela amasimu, bagxumeka amavini athela isivuno esikhulu;
38 Yehova anawadalitsa, ndipo chiwerengero chawo chinachuluka kwambiri, ndipo Iye sanalole kuti ziweto zawo zithe.
wababusisa banda baba banengi kakhulu, akaze ayekela imihlambi yabo inciphe.
39 Kenaka chiwerengero chawo chinachepa ndipo iwo anatsitsidwa chifukwa cha mazunzo, mavuto ndi chisoni;
Kwasekusithi ubunengi babo sebunciphile, bathotshiswa ngokuncindezelwa, ngokuhlupheka langosizi;
40 Iye amene amakhuthulira mʼnyozo pa olemekezeka anawachititsa kuyendayenda mʼmalo owumawo wopanda njira.
kwathi yena othela ihlazo ezikhulwini wabantulisa egwaduleni olungakhanyi mzila.
41 Koma Iyeyo anakweza anthu osowa kuchoka ku masautso awo ngati magulu a nkhosa.
Kodwa abaswelayo wabakhupha ekuhluphekeni kwabo wandisa izimuli zabo njengemihlambi yezimvu.
42 Anthu olungama mtima amaona ndi kusangalala, koma anthu onse oyipa amatseka pakamwa pawo.
Abaqotho bayabona bathokoze, kodwa bonke ababi bagcike imilomo yabo.
43 Aliyense wanzeru asamalitse zinthu zimenezi ndi kuganizira za chikondi chachikulu cha Yehova.
Lowo ohlakaniphileyo, kaqaphele lezizinto anakane ngothando olukhulu lukaThixo.
