< Masalimo 149 >
1 Tamandani Yehova. Imbirani Yehova nyimbo yatsopano, matamando ake mu msonkhano wa oyera mtima.
Hallelujah! Sing unto Jehovah a new song; [sing] his praise in the congregation of the godly.
2 Israeli asangalale mwa mlengi wake; anthu a ku Ziyoni akondwere mwa Mfumu yawo.
Let Israel rejoice in his Maker; let the sons of Zion be joyful in their King.
3 Atamande dzina lake povina ndi kuyimbira Iye nyimbo ndi tambolini ndi pangwe.
Let them praise his name in the dance; let them sing psalms unto him with the tambour and harp.
4 Pakuti Yehova amakondwera ndi anthu ake; Iye amaveka chipulumutso odzichepetsa.
For Jehovah taketh pleasure in his people; he beautifieth the meek with salvation.
5 Oyera mtima asangalale mu ulemu wake ndi kuyimba mwachimwemwe pa mabedi awo.
Let the godly exult in glory; let them shout for joy upon their beds.
6 Matamando a Mulungu akhale pakamwa pawo, ndi lupanga lakuthwa konsekonse mʼmanja mwawo,
Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, and a two-edged sword in their hand:
7 kubwezera chilango anthu a mitundu ina, ndi kulanga anthu a mitundu yonse,
To execute vengeance against the nations, [and] punishment among the peoples;
8 kumanga mafumu awo ndi zingwe, anthu awo otchuka ndi unyolo wachitsulo,
To bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron;
9 kuchita zimene zinalembedwa zotsutsana nawo Uwu ndi ulemerero wa oyera mtima ake onse. Tamandani Yehova.
To execute upon them the judgment written. This honour have all his saints. Hallelujah!
