Masalimo 112

1 Tamandani Yehova. Wodala munthu amene amaopa Yehova, amene amakondwera kwambiri ndi malamulo ake.

Let the Lord be praised. Happy is the man who gives honour to the Lord, and has great delight in his laws.

2 Ana ake adzakhala amphamvu mʼdziko; mʼbado wa olungama mtima udzadalitsidwa.

His seed will be strong on the earth; blessings will be on the generation of the upright.

3 Kulemera ndi chuma zili mʼnyumba yake, ndipo chilungamo chake ndi chosatha.

A store of wealth will be in his house, and his righteousness will be for ever.

4 Ngakhale mu mdima kuwala kumatulukira olungama mtima; wokoma mtima, wachifundo ndi wowongoka mtima.

For the upright there is a light shining in the dark; he is full of grace and pity.

5 Zinthu zabwino zidzabwera kwa iye amene amapereka mowolowamanja ndi wokongoletsa mwaufulu, amene amachita ntchito yake mwachilungamo.

All is well for the man who is kind and gives freely to others; he will make good his cause when he is judged.

6 Ndithu sadzagwedezeka; munthu wolungama sadzayiwalika mpaka muyaya.

He will not ever be moved; the memory of the upright will be living for ever.

7 Saopa akamva zoyipa zimene zachitika; mtima wake ndi wokhazikika ndipo amadalira Yehova.

He will have no fear of evil news; his heart is fixed, for his hope is in the Lord.

8 Mtima wake ndi wotetezedwa, sadzakhala ndi mantha; potsiriza pake adzayangʼana adani ake mwachipambano.

His heart is resting safely, he will have no fear, till he sees trouble come on his haters.

9 Wopereka mphatso zake mowolowamanja kwa osauka, chilungamo chake chimanka mpaka muyaya; nyanga yake idzakwezedwa mwaulemu.

He has given with open hands to the poor; his righteousness is for ever; his horn will be lifted up with honour.

10 Munthu woyipa adzaona zimenezi ndipo adzapsa mtima; adzakukuta mano ake ndipo adzasungunuka. Zolakalaka za anthu oyipa sizidzachitika konse.

The sinner will see it with grief; he will be wasted away with envy; the desire of the evil-doers will come to nothing.
