Masalimo 24

1 Salimo la Davide. Dziko lapansi ndi la Yehova ndi zonse zimene zili mʼmenemo, dziko ndi onse amene amakhala mʼmenemo;

[A Psalm by David.] The earth is Jehovah's, and its fullness; the world, and those who dwell in it.

2 pakuti Iye ndiye anayika maziko ake pa nyanja ndi kulikhazika pamwamba pa madzi.

For he has founded it on the seas, and established it on the floods.

3 Ndani angakwere phiri la Yehova? Ndani angathe kuyima pa malo ake opatulika?

Who may ascend to Jehovah's hill? Who may stand in his holy place?

4 Iye amene ali ndi mʼmanja moyera ndi mtima woyera, amene sapereka moyo wake kwa fano kapena kulumbira mwachinyengo.

He who has clean hands and a pure heart; who has not lifted up his soul to falsehood, and has not sworn deceitfully.

5 Iyeyo adzalandira madalitso kwa Yehova ndipo Mulungu mpulumutsi wake adzagamula kuti alibe mlandu.

He shall receive a blessing from Jehovah, righteousness from the God of his salvation.

6 Umenewo ndiwo mʼbado wa amene amafunafuna Yehova; amene amafunafuna nkhope yanu, Inu Mulungu wa Yakobo. (Sela)

This is the generation of those who seek Him, who seek the face of the God of Jacob. (Selah)

7 Tukulani mitu yanu inu zipata; tsekukani, inu zitseko zakalekalenu, kuti Mfumu yaulemerero ilowe.

Lift up your heads, you gates. Be lifted up, you everlasting doors, and the King of glory will come in.

8 Kodi Mfumu yaulemereroyo ndani? Yehova Wamphamvuzonse, Yehova ndiye wamphamvu pa nkhondo.

Who is the King of glory? Jehovah strong and mighty, Jehovah mighty in battle.

9 Tukulani mitu yanu, inu zipata; tsekukani, inu zitseko zakalekalenu, kuti Mfumu yaulemerero ilowe.

Lift up your heads, you gates; lift them up, you everlasting doors, and the King of glory will come in.

10 Kodi Mfumu yaulemereroyo ndani? Yehova Wamphamvuzonse, Iye ndiye Mfumu yaulemerero. (Sela)

Who is this King of glory? Jehovah of hosts is the King of glory. (Selah)
