< Masalimo 116 >
1 Ndimakonda Yehova pakuti Iyeyo amamva mawu anga; Iye amamva kulira kwanga kopempha chifundo.
Mukama mmwagala, kubanga awulidde eddoboozi lyange n’okwegayirira kwange.
2 Pakuti ananditchera khutu, ndidzayitana Iye masiku onse a moyo wanga.
Kubanga ateze okutu kwe gye ndi, kyennaavanga mmukoowoola ebbanga lyonna lye ndimala nga nkyali mulamu.
3 Zingwe za imfa zinandizinga, zoopsa za ku dziko la anthu akufa zinandigwera; ndinapeza mavuto ndi chisoni. (Sheol )
Emiguwa gy’okufa gyansiba, n’okulumwa okw’emagombe kwankwata; ne nzijula ennaku nnyingi n’okutya. (Sheol )
4 Pamenepo ndinayitana dzina la Yehova: “Inu Yehova, pulumutseni!”
Ne ndyoka nkoowoola erinnya lya Mukama nti, “Ayi Mukama, ndokola.”
5 Yehova ndi wokoma mtima ndi wolungama Mulungu wathu ndi wodzaza ndi chifundo.
Mukama wa kisa, era mutuukirivu; Katonda waffe ajjudde okusaasira.
6 Yehova amateteza munthu wodzichepetsa mtima; pamene ndinali ndi chosowa chachikulu, Iye anandipulumutsa.
Mukama alabirira abantu abaabulijjo; bwe nnali mu buzibu obunene, n’andokola.
7 Pumula iwe moyo wanga, pakuti Yehova wakuchitira zokoma.
Wummula ggwe emmeeme yange, kubanga Mukama abadde mulungi gy’oli.
8 Pakuti Inu Yehova mwapulumutsa moyo wanga ku imfa, maso anga ku misozi, mapazi anga kuti angapunthwe,
Kubanga ggwe, Ayi Mukama, owonyezza omwoyo gwange okufa, n’amaaso gange ogawonyezza okukaaba; n’ebigere byange n’obiwonya okwesittala,
9 kuti ine ndiyende pamaso pa Yehova mʼdziko la anthu amoyo.
ndyoke ntambulirenga mu maaso ga Mukama mu nsi ey’abalamu.
10 Ine ndinakhulupirira; choncho ndinati, “Ndasautsidwa kwambiri.”
Nakkiriza kyennava njogera nti, “Numizibbwa nnyo.”
11 Ndipo ndili mʼnkhawa yanga ndinati, “Anthu onse ndi abodza.”
Ne njogera nga nterebuse nti, “Abantu bonna baliraba.”
12 Ndingamubwezere chiyani Yehova, chifukwa cha zokoma zake zonse zimene wandichitira?
Mukama ndimusasula ntya olw’ebirungi bye ebingi bwe bityo by’ankoledde?
13 Ndidzakweza chikho cha chipulumutso ndipo ndidzayitana dzina la Yehova.
Nditoola ekikompe eky’obulokozi, ne nkoowoola erinnya lya Mukama.
14 Ndidzakwaniritsa malonjezo anga kwa Yehova pamaso pa anthu ake onse.
Ndituukiriza obweyamo bwange eri Mukama, mu maaso g’abantu be bonna.
15 Imfa ya anthu oyera mtima ndi yamtengowapatali pamaso pa Yehova.
Okufa kw’abatukuvu ba Mukama kwa muwendo nnyo eri Mukama.
16 Inu Yehova, zoonadi ndine mtumiki wanu: ndine mtumiki wanu, mwana wa mdzakazi wanu; Inu mwamasula maunyolo anga.
Ayi Mukama, onsumuluddeko ebyansiba n’onfuula wa ddembe, nange nnaakuweerezanga ennaku zonna.
17 Ndidzapereka nsembe yachiyamiko kwa Inu ndipo ndidzayitanira pa dzina la Yehova.
Ndiwaayo ekiweebwayo eky’okwebaza, ne nkoowoola erinnya lya Mukama.
18 Ndidzakwaniritsa malonjezo anga kwa Yehova pamaso pa anthu ake onse,
Ndituukiriza obweyamo bwange eri Mukama, mu maaso g’abantu be bonna,
19 mʼmabwalo a nyumba ya Yehova, mʼkati mwako iwe Yerusalemu. Tamandani Yehova.
mu mpya z’ennyumba ya Mukama; wakati wo, ggwe Yerusaalemi. Mutendereze Mukama.
