Masalimo 21
1 Kwa mtsogoleri wa mayimbidwe. Salimo la Davide. Inu Yehova, mfumu ikusangalala mu mphamvu yanu, chimwemwe chake nʼchachikuludi pa kupambana kumene mumapereka!
Unto the end. A psalm for David. In thy strength, O Lord, the king shall joy; and in thy salvation he shall rejoice exceedingly.
2 Inu mwayipatsa zokhumba za mtima wake ndipo simunayimane zopempha za pa milomo yake. (Sela)
Thou hast given him his heart’s desire: and hast not withholden from him the will of his lips.
3 Inu munayilandira ndi madalitso ochuluka ndipo munayiveka chipewa chaufumu chagolide weniweni pa mutu wake.
For thou hast prevented him with blessings of sweetness: thou hast set on his head a crown of precious stones.
4 Iye anakupemphani moyo, ndipo munamupatsa masiku ochuluka kwamuyaya.
He asked life of thee: and thou hast given him length of days for ever and ever.
5 Kudzera mʼzigonjetso zimene munapereka, ulemerero wake ndi waukulu; Inu mwapereka pa iyo ulemerero ndi ufumu.
His glory is great in thy salvation: glory and great beauty shalt thou lay upon him.
6 Zoonadi Inu mwayipatsa madalitso amuyaya, Inu mwayipatsa chisangalalo ndi chimwemwe chimene chili pamaso panu.
For thou shalt give him to be a blessing for ever and ever: thou shalt make him joyful in gladness with thy countenance.
7 Pakuti mfumu imadalira Yehova; kudzera mʼchikondi chake chosatha cha Wammwambamwamba, iyo sidzagwedezeka.
For the king hopeth in the Lord: and through the mercy of the most High he shall not be moved.
8 Dzanja lanu lidzayimitsa adani anu onse; dzanja lanu lamanja lidzagwira adani anu.
Let thy hand be found by all thy enemies: let thy right hand find out all them that hate thee.
9 Pa nthawi ya kuonekera kwanu mudzawasandutsa ngʼanjo yamoto yotentha. Mu ukali wake Yehova adzawameza, ndipo moto wake udzawatha.
Thou shalt make them as an oven of fire, in the time of thy anger: the Lord shall trouble them in his wrath, and fire shall devour them.
10 Inu mudzawononga ana awo pa dziko lapansi, zidzukulu zawo pakati pa anthu.
Their fruit shalt thou destroy from the earth: and their seed from among the children of men.
11 Ngakhale iwo akukonzereni chiwembu mwa kuchenjera kwawo sadzapambana;
For they have intended evils against thee: they have devised counsels which they have not been able to establish.
12 pakuti mudzawapirikitsa ndipo adzaonetsa misana yawo pamene mudzawaloza ndi mivi yanu.
For thou shalt make them turn their back: in thy remnants thou shalt prepare their face.
13 Mukwezeke Inu Yehova mʼmphamvu yanu, ife tidzayimba nyimbo ndi kutamanda mphamvu yanu.
Be thou exalted, O Lord, in thy own strength: we will sing and praise thy power.
