1 Kwa mtsogoleri wa mayimbidwe. Salimo la Davide mtumiki wa Yehova. Iye anayimbira Yehova nyimbo iyi pamene Yehovayo anamupulumutsa mʼdzanja la adani ake onse ndiponso mʼdzanja la Sauli. Davide anati: Ine ndimakukondani Inu Yehova, mphamvu zanga.
Ya Mukulu wa Bayimbi. Zabbuli ya Dawudi gye yayimbira Mukama bwe yamuwonya abalabe be ne Sawulo. Nkwagala Ayi Mukama kubanga ggwe maanyi gange.
2 Yehova ndiye thanthwe langa, chitetezo changa ndi mpulumutsi wanga; Mulungu wanga ndi thanthwe langa mʼmene ndimathawiramo. Chishango changa ndi ndodo yachipulumutso changa, ndi linga langa.
Mukama lwe lwazi lwange, ky’ekigo kyange ekigumu era ye mununuzi wange, ye Katonda wange era lwe lwazi lwange mwe neekweka; ye ngabo yange era ye mulokozi wange ow’amaanyi, era kye kigo kyange ekinywevu.
3 Ndimayitana Yehova amene ndi woyenera matamando, ndipo ndapulumutsidwa kwa adani anga.
Nkoowoola Mukama asaana okutenderezebwa, era amponya eri abalabe bange.
4 Zingwe za imfa zinandizinga; mitsinje yothamanga yachiwonongeko inandiopsa kwambiri.
Emiguwa gy’okufa gyanneetooloola; embuyaga ez’okusaanawo zansaanikira.
5 Anandimanga ndi zingwe za ku manda; misampha ya imfa inalimbana nane. (Sheol h7585)
Ebisiba eby’amagombe byanneetooloola; n’emitego gy’okufa ne ginjolekera. (Sheol h7585)
6 Mʼmasautso anga ndinapemphera kwa Yehova; ndinalirira kwa Mulungu wanga kuti andithandize. Ali mʼNyumba yake, anamva mawu anga; kulira kwanga kunafika pamaso pake ndi mʼmakutu mwake.
Mu nnaku yange nakoowoola Mukama; ne nkaabirira Katonda wange annyambe. Yawulira eddoboozi lyange ng’ali mu yeekaalu ye; omulanga gwange ne gutuuka mu matu ge.
7 Dziko lapansi linanjenjemera ndi kuchita chivomerezi, ndipo maziko a mapiri anagwedezeka; ananjenjemera chifukwa Iye anakwiya.
Emisingi gy’ensi ne gikankana ne giyuuguuma; ensozi ne zinyeenyezebwa ne ziseeseetuka, kubanga yali asunguwadde.
8 Mʼmphuno mwake munatuluka utsi; moto wonyeketsa unatuluka mʼkamwa mwake, makala amoto anali lawilawi mʼkamwa mwake.
Omukka ne gunyooka nga guva mu nnyindo ze. Omuliro ne guva mu kamwa ke, ne gukoleeza amanda ne gabuubuuka.
9 Iye anangʼamba thambo natsika pansi; pansi pa mapazi ake panali mitambo yakuda.
Yayabuluza eggulu n’akka wansi; ebire ebikutte nga biri wansi w’ebigere bye.
10 Iye anakwera pa Kerubi ndi kuwuluka; nawuluka ndi mphepo mwaliwiro.
Yeebagala kerubi n’abuuka, n’aseeyeeyeza ku biwaawaatiro by’empewo.
11 Iye anapanga mdima kukhala chofunda chake, chophimba chake chomuzungulira chinali mitambo yakuda ya mlengalenga.
Yafuula ekizikiza ekyamwetooloolanga okuba enkuufiira ey’ebire ebijjudde amazzi.
12 Mʼkuwala kumene kunali pamaso pake munkachokera matalala, makala amoto ndi ziphaliwali zongʼanima.
Okumasamasa okwali mu maaso ge ne kuva mu bire bye, n’okumyansa kw’eggulu n’omuzira.
13 Yehova anabangula kumwamba ngati bingu, mawu a Wammwambamwamba anamveka ponseponse.
Mukama yabwatuka ng’asinziira mu ggulu; oyo Ali Waggulu Ennyo yayogera; mu kamwa ke ne muvaamu omuzira n’okumyansa kw’eggulu.
14 Iye anaponya mivi yake nabalalitsa adani ake, ndi zingʼaningʼani zake anawagonjetsa.
Yalasa obusaale bwe n’asaasaanya abalabe; n’okumyansa okw’eggulu n’abawangula.
15 Zigwa za mʼnyanja zinaonekera poyera; maziko a dziko lapansi anakhala poyera, Yehova atabangula mwaukali, pamene mpweya wamphamvu unatuluka mʼmphuno mwanu.
Ebiwonvu eby’omu nnyanja ne bibikkulwa n’emisingi gy’ensi ne gyeyerula olw’okunenya kwo Ayi Mukama n’olw’okubwatuka kw’omukka ogw’omu nnyindo zo.
16 Ali kumwamba, Iye anatambalitsa dzanja lake ndipo anandigwira; anandivuwula mʼmadzi ozama.
Mukama yagolola omukono gwe ng’ali waggulu, n’ankwata n’annyinyulula mu mazzi amangi.
17 Anandipulumutsa kwa mdani wanga wamphamvu, adani anga, amene anali amphamvu kuposa ine.
Yamponya abalabe bange ab’amaanyi, abankyawa, abo abaali bansinza amaanyi.
18 Adaniwo analimbana nane pamene ndinali pa mavuto, koma Yehova anali thandizo langa.
Bannumba nga ndi mu buzibu, naye Mukama n’annyamba.
19 Iye anandipititsa kumalo otakasuka; anandipulumutsa chifukwa amakondwera nane.
N’antwala mu kifo ekigazi n’amponya, kubanga yansanyukira nnyo.
20 Yehova wandithandiza molingana ndi chilungamo changa; molingana ndi makhalidwe anga abwino, Iye wandipulumutsa.
Mukama ankoledde ng’obutuukirivu bwange bwe buli, ansasudde ng’ebikolwa byange ebirungi bwe biri.
21 Pakuti ine ndinatsata njira za Yehova; ndilibe mlandu wochoka pamaso Mulungu wanga.
Kubanga ntambulidde mu makubo ga Mukama, ne sikola kibi eri Katonda wange.
22 Malamulo ake onse ali pamaso panga; sindinasiye malangizo ake.
Ddala ddala amateeka ga Mukama gonna ngagondedde, era ne siva ku biragiro bye.
23 Ndakhala moyo wosalakwa pamaso pake ndipo ndakhala ndi kupewa tchimo.
Sisobyanga mu maaso ge era nneekuuma obutayonoona.
24 Yehova wandipatsa mphotho molingana ndi chilungamo changa, molingana ndi kuyera kwa manja anga pamaso pake.
Noolwekyo, Mukama ansasudde ng’obutuukirivu bwange bwe buli, era ng’ebikolwa byange ebirungi bwe biri by’alaba.
25 Kwa wokhulupirika, Inu mumaonetsa kukhulupirika kwanu; kwa anthu amakhalidwe abwino, Inu mumaonetsanso makhalidwe abwino,
Eri omwesigwa weeraga ng’oli mwesigwa, n’eri atalina musango weeraga nga tolina musango.
26 kwa woyera mtima, Inu mumaonetsa kuyera mtima kwanu, koma kwa achinyengo mumaonetsanso kunyansidwa nawo.
Eri abalongoofu weeraga ng’oli mulongoofu, n’eri abakyamu weeraga ng’obasinza amagezi.
27 Inu mumapulumutsa anthu odzichepetsa, koma anthu amtima odzikuza mumawatsitsa.
Owonya abawombeefu, naye abeegulumiza obakkakkanya.
28 Inu Yehova, sungani nyale yanga kuti iziyakabe; Mulungu wanga wasandutsa mdima wanga kukhala kuwunika.
Okoleezezza ettaala yange; Ayi Mukama Katonda wange, ekizikiza kyange okimulisizza.
29 Ndi thandizo lanu nditha kulimbana ndi gulu la ankhondo; ndi Mulungu wanga nditha kuchita zosatheka ndi munthu.
Bwe mbeera naawe nsobola okulumba abalabe bange; nga ndi ne Katonda wange nsobola okuwalampa bbugwe.
30 Kunena za Mulungu, zochita zake ndi zangwiro; mawu a Yehova alibe cholakwika. Iye ndi chishango kwa onse amene amathawira kwa Iye.
Katonda byonna by’akola bigolokofu; Mukama ky’asuubiza akituukiriza; era bwe buddukiro bw’abo bonna abamwekwekamu.
31 Mulungu wina ndi uti wofanana nanu Yehova? Ndipo ndani amene ndi Thanthwe kupatula Mulungu wathu?
Kale, ani Katonda, wabula Mukama? Era ani Lwazi, wabula Katonda waffe?
32 Ndi Mulungu amene anandipatsa mphamvu ndi kulungamitsa njira yanga.
Oyo ye Katonda ampa amaanyi era aluŋŋamya ekkubo lyange.
33 Iye amasandutsa mapazi anga kukhala ngati ambawala yayikazi; Iye amandithandiza kuyimirira pamwamba pa mapiri.
Ebigere byange abinyweza ng’eby’empeewo, n’ansobozesa okuyimirira ku ntikko z’ensozi.
34 Iye amaphunzitsa manja anga kuchita nkhondo; manja anga amatha kuthyola uta wachitsulo.
Anjigiriza okulwana entalo, ne nsobola n’okuleega omutego ogw’obusaale ogw’ekikomo.
35 Inu mumandipatsa chishango chachipambano, ndipo dzanja lanu lamanja limandichirikiza; mumawerama pansi kundikuza.
Ompadde obulokozi bwo okuba engabo yange; era ompaniridde n’omukono gwo ogwa ddyo; weetoowazizza n’ongulumiza.
36 Munakulitsa njira yoyendamo ine, kuti mapazi anga asaguluke.
Ongaziyirizza ekkubo ebigere byange we biyita, obukongovvule bwange ne butanuuka.
37 Ndinathamangitsa adani anga ndi kuwapitirira; sindinabwerere mpaka atawonongedwa.
Nagoba abalabe bange embiro, ne mbakwata ne sidda mabega okutuusa nga mbazikirizza.
38 Ndinakantha adaniwo kotero kuti sanathenso kudzuka; anagwera pa mapazi anga.
Nababetenta ne batasobola na kugolokoka, ne mbalinnyako ebigere byange.
39 Inu munandiveka ndi mphamvu yokachitira nkhondo, munachititsa kuti ndigonjetse adani anga.
Ompadde amaanyi ag’okulwana; abalabe bange ne banvuunamira.
40 Inu munachititsa adani anga kutembenuka, kuonetsa misana yawo pothawa, ndipo ine ndinawononga adani angawo.
Okyusizza abalabe bange ne bankuba amabega ne badduka, ne ndyoka nsanyaawo abo bonna abankyawa.
41 Iwo anafuwula kupempha thandizo, koma panalibe ndi mmodzi yemwe owapulumutsa. Analirira kwa Yehova koma sanawayankhe.
Baalaajana naye tewaali yabawonya; ne bakaabirira Mukama, naye n’atabaddamu.
42 Ine ndinawaperesa ngati fumbi lowuluka ndi mphepo. Ndinawapondaponda ngati matope a mʼmisewu.
Ne mbamerengula ng’enfuufu empewo gy’efuumuula; ne mbasammula eri ng’ebisooto by’omu luguudo.
43 Inu mwandipulumutsa mʼmanja mwa anthu; mwandisandutsa kukhala mtsogoleri wa anthu a mitundu ina. Anthu amene sindikuwadziwa ali pansi pa ulamuliro wanga.
Omponyezza obulumbaganyi bw’abantu; n’onfuula omufuzi w’amawanga. Abantu be nnali simanyi ne bafuuka abaweereza bange.
44 Alendo amadzipereka okha pamaso panga; akangomva za ine amandigonjera.
Olumpulira ne baŋŋondera, bannamawanga ne bajugumira mu maaso gange.
45 Iwo onse anataya mtima; anatuluka mʼmalinga awo akunjenjemera.
Bannamawanga baggwaamu omutima ne bava mu bigo byabwe nga bakankana.
46 Yehova ndi wamoyo! Litamandidwe Thanthwe langa! Akuzike Mulungu Mpulumutsi wanga!
Mukama mulamu! Atenderezebwe, Olwazi lwange; era agulumizibwe Katonda w’obulokozi bwange.
47 Iye ndi Mulungu amene amabwezera chilango, amene amagonjetsa anthu a mitundu yonse amene ali pansi pa ulamuliro wanga,
Ye Katonda, asasula ku lwange abankola obubi era akakkanya amawanga ne ngafuga. Amponyeza abalabe bange.
48 amene amandipulumutsa mʼmanja mwa adani anga. Inu munandikuza kuposa adani anga; munandilanditsa mʼmanja mwa anthu ankhanza.
Ayi Mukama, ongulumizizza okusinga abalabe bange, n’onkuuma abakambwe ne batankwatako.
49 Choncho ine ndidzakutamandani pakati pa anthu a mitundu ina, Inu Yehova; ndidzayimba nyimbo zotamanda dzina lanu.
Noolwekyo, Ayi Mukama, nnaakutenderezanga mu mawanga, era nnaayimbanga nga ntendereza erinnya lyo.
50 Iye amapereka chipambano chachikulu kwa mfumu yake; amaonetsa chikondi chosasinthika kwa wodzozedwa wake, kwa Davide ndi zidzukulu zake kwamuyaya.
Awa kabaka obuwanguzi obw’amaanyi, amulaga ebyekisa emirembe gyonna oyo gwe yafukako amafuta, eri Dawudi n’eri ezzadde lye.
