Masalimo 108

1 Nyimbo. Salimo la Davide. Mtima wanga ndi wokhazikika, Inu Mulungu; ndidzayimba nyimbo, inde ndidzayimba nyimbo zotamanda ndi moyo wanga wonse.

A Song. A Psalm. Of David. O God, my heart is fixed; I will make songs and melody, even with my glory.

2 Dzukani, zeze ndi pangwe! Ine ndidzadzutsa mʼbandakucha.

Give out your sounds, O corded instruments: the dawn will be awaking with my song.

3 Ndidzakutamandani Yehova, pakati pa anthu a mitundu ina; ndidzayimba za Inu pakati pa anthu a mitundu ina.

I will give you praise, O Lord, among the peoples; I will make melody to you among the nations.

4 Pakuti chikondi chanu nʼchachikulu, kutalika kwake kuposa kumwamba; kukhulupirika kwanu kumafika mlengalenga.

For your mercy is higher than the heavens: and your unchanging faith than the clouds.

5 Kwezekani Inu Mulungu, kuposa mayiko akumwamba, ndipo ulemerero wanu uphimbe dziko lonse lapansi.

Be lifted up, O God, higher than the heavens; let your glory be over all the earth.

6 Tipulumutseni ndi kutithandiza ndi dzanja lanu lamanja kuti iwo amene mumawakonda apulumutsidwe.

Let your right hand be stretched out for salvation, and give me an answer, so that your loved ones may be safe from danger.

7 Mulungu wayankhula kuchokera ku malo ake opatulika: “Mwachipambano Ine ndidzagawa Sekemu ndipo ndidzayesa chigwa cha Sukoti.

This is the word of the holy God: I will be glad; I will make Shechem a heritage, measuring out the valley of Succoth.

8 Giliyadi ndi wanga, Manase ndi wanganso; Efereimu ndi chipewa changa chodzitetezera, Yuda ndi ndodo yanga yaufumu.

Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine; Ephraim is the strength of my head; Judah is my law-giver;

9 Mowabu ndi mbale yanga yosambiramo ndidzaponya nsapato zanga pa Edomu; ndidzafuwula mopambana pa Filisitiya.”

Moab is my washpot; on Edom is the resting-place of my shoe; over Philistia will I send out a glad cry.

10 Ndani adzandifikitsa ku mzinda wotetezedwa? Ndani adzanditsogolera ku Edomu?

Who will take me into the strong town? who will be my guide into Edom?

11 Kodi sindinu Mulungu, Inu amene mwatikana ndipo simuperekezanso magulu athu ankhondo?

Have you not sent us away from you, O God? and you go not out with our armies.

12 Tithandizeni ife kulimbana ndi mdani, pakuti thandizo la munthu ndi lopanda pake.

Give us help in our trouble; for there is no help in man.

13 Chifukwa cha Mulungu wathu, ife tidzapeza chipambano, ndipo adzapondereza pansi adani athu.

With God we will do great things; for by him will our haters be crushed underfoot.
