1 Kwa mtsogoleri wa mayimbidwe. Salimo la Davide. Inu Yehova, mfumu ikusangalala mu mphamvu yanu, chimwemwe chake nʼchachikuludi pa kupambana kumene mumapereka!
Jehova, inkosi izajabula emandleni akho, lesindisweni lwakho izathaba kangakanani!
2 Inu mwayipatsa zokhumba za mtima wake ndipo simunayimane zopempha za pa milomo yake. (Sela)
Uyinikile isifiso senhliziyo yayo, kawuyincitshanga isicelo sendebe zayo. (Sela)
3 Inu munayilandira ndi madalitso ochuluka ndipo munayiveka chipewa chaufumu chagolide weniweni pa mutu wake.
Ngoba uyihlangabeze ngezibusiso zokuhle, wayethwesa umqhele wegolide elihle ekhanda layo.
4 Iye anakupemphani moyo, ndipo munamupatsa masiku ochuluka kwamuyaya.
Yacela impilo kuwe, wayinika yona, ubude bezinsuku kuze kube nini lanini.
5 Kudzera mʼzigonjetso zimene munapereka, ulemerero wake ndi waukulu; Inu mwapereka pa iyo ulemerero ndi ufumu.
Lukhulu udumo lwayo ekusindiseni kwakho, inkazimulo lobukhosi wakubeka phezu kwayo.
6 Zoonadi Inu mwayipatsa madalitso amuyaya, Inu mwayipatsa chisangalalo ndi chimwemwe chimene chili pamaso panu.
Ngoba uyenze yabusiseka kakhulu kuze kube nininini, uyayithokozisa ngenjabulo ebukhoneni bakho.
7 Pakuti mfumu imadalira Yehova; kudzera mʼchikondi chake chosatha cha Wammwambamwamba, iyo sidzagwedezeka.
Ngoba inkosi ithembela kuJehova, langomusa woPhezukonke kayiyikunyikinywa.
8 Dzanja lanu lidzayimitsa adani anu onse; dzanja lanu lamanja lidzagwira adani anu.
Isandla sakho sizazithola zonke izitha zakho, lesandla sakho sokunene sizabathola labo abakuzondayo.
9 Pa nthawi ya kuonekera kwanu mudzawasandutsa ngʼanjo yamoto yotentha. Mu ukali wake Yehova adzawameza, ndipo moto wake udzawatha.
Uzabenza babe njengesithando somlilo esikhathini solaka lwakho. INkosi izabaginya ekuthukutheleni kwayo, lomlilo uzabaqothula.
10 Inu mudzawononga ana awo pa dziko lapansi, zidzukulu zawo pakati pa anthu.
Uzachitha isithelo sabo emhlabeni, lenzalo yabo phakathi kwabantwana babantu.
11 Ngakhale iwo akukonzereni chiwembu mwa kuchenjera kwawo sadzapambana;
Ngoba bezimisela okubi bemelene lawe, beceba ugobe, bazakwehluleka.
12 pakuti mudzawapirikitsa ndipo adzaonetsa misana yawo pamene mudzawaloza ndi mivi yanu.
Ngoba uzabafulathelisa, ngezintambo zedandili uzalungisa imitshoko imelane lobuso babo.
13 Mukwezeke Inu Yehova mʼmphamvu yanu, ife tidzayimba nyimbo ndi kutamanda mphamvu yanu.
Phakama, Nkosi, ngamandla akho! Sizahlabela sidumise amandla akho.
