1 Kwa mtsogoleri wa mayimbidwe. Salimo la Davide. Inu Yehova, mfumu ikusangalala mu mphamvu yanu, chimwemwe chake nʼchachikuludi pa kupambana kumene mumapereka!
[For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David.] The king rejoices in your strength, YHWH. How greatly he rejoices in your salvation.
2 Inu mwayipatsa zokhumba za mtima wake ndipo simunayimane zopempha za pa milomo yake. (Sela)
You have given him his heart's desire, and have not withheld the request of his lips. (Selah)
3 Inu munayilandira ndi madalitso ochuluka ndipo munayiveka chipewa chaufumu chagolide weniweni pa mutu wake.
For you meet him with the blessings of goodness. You set a crown of fine gold on his head.
4 Iye anakupemphani moyo, ndipo munamupatsa masiku ochuluka kwamuyaya.
He asked life of you, you gave it to him, even length of days forever and ever.
5 Kudzera mʼzigonjetso zimene munapereka, ulemerero wake ndi waukulu; Inu mwapereka pa iyo ulemerero ndi ufumu.
His glory is great in your salvation. You lay honor and majesty on him.
6 Zoonadi Inu mwayipatsa madalitso amuyaya, Inu mwayipatsa chisangalalo ndi chimwemwe chimene chili pamaso panu.
For you make him most blessed forever. You make him glad with joy in your presence.
7 Pakuti mfumu imadalira Yehova; kudzera mʼchikondi chake chosatha cha Wammwambamwamba, iyo sidzagwedezeka.
For the king trusts in YHWH. Through the loving kindness of the Most High, he shall not be moved.
8 Dzanja lanu lidzayimitsa adani anu onse; dzanja lanu lamanja lidzagwira adani anu.
Your hand will find out all of your enemies. Your right hand will find all those who hate you.
9 Pa nthawi ya kuonekera kwanu mudzawasandutsa ngʼanjo yamoto yotentha. Mu ukali wake Yehova adzawameza, ndipo moto wake udzawatha.
You will make them as a fiery furnace in the time of your anger. YHWH will swallow them up in his wrath. The fire shall devour them.
10 Inu mudzawononga ana awo pa dziko lapansi, zidzukulu zawo pakati pa anthu.
You will destroy their descendants from the earth, their posterity from among the descendants of Adam.
11 Ngakhale iwo akukonzereni chiwembu mwa kuchenjera kwawo sadzapambana;
Though they intend evil against you, devising a wicked scheme, they will not succeed.
12 pakuti mudzawapirikitsa ndipo adzaonetsa misana yawo pamene mudzawaloza ndi mivi yanu.
For you will make them turn their back, when you aim drawn bows at their face.
13 Mukwezeke Inu Yehova mʼmphamvu yanu, ife tidzayimba nyimbo ndi kutamanda mphamvu yanu.
Be exalted, YHWH, in your strength, so we will sing and praise your power.
