Masalimo 30
1 Salimo la Davide. Nyimbo yoyimba popereka Nyumba ya Mulungu. Ndidzakukwezani Yehova, chifukwa mwanditulutsa kwakuya, ndipo simunalole kuti adani anga akondwere pa ine.
A Psalm; a Song at the Dedication of the House; of David. I will extol thee, O LORD, for Thou hast raised me up, and hast not suffered mine enemies to rejoice over me.
2 Inu Yehova Mulungu wanga ndinapempha kwa Inu thandizo ndipo Inu munandichiritsa.
O LORD my God, I cried unto Thee, and Thou didst heal me;
O LORD, Thou broughtest up my soul from the nether-world; Thou didst keep me alive, that I should not go down to the pit. (Sheol h7585)
4 Imbirani Yehova inu anthu ake okhulupirika; tamandani dzina lake loyera.
Sing praise unto the LORD, O ye His godly ones, and give thanks to His holy name.
5 Pakuti mkwiyo wake umakhala kwa kanthawi koma kukoma mtima kwake ndi kwa moyo wonse; utha kuchezera kulira usiku wonse, koma chimwemwe chimabwera mmawa.
For His anger is but for a moment, His favour is for a life-time; weeping may tarry for the night, but joy cometh in the morning.
6 Pamene ndinaona kuti ndili otetezedwa ndinati, “Sindidzagwedezekanso.”
Now I had said in my security: 'I shall never be moved.'
7 Inu Yehova, pamene munandikomera mtima, munachititsa phiri langa kuyima chilili; koma pamene munabisa nkhope yanu, ndinataya mtima.
Thou hadst established, O LORD, in Thy favour my mountain as a stronghold — Thou didst hide Thy face; I was affrighted.
8 Kwa Inu Yehova ndinayitana; kwa Ambuye ndinapempha chifundo;
Unto Thee, O LORD, did I call, and unto the LORD I made supplication:
9 “Kodi pali phindu lanji powonongeka kwanga ngati nditsikira ku dzenje? Kodi fumbi lidzakutamandani Inu? Kodi lidzalengeza za kukhulupirika kwanu?
'What profit is there in my blood, when I go down to the pit? Shall the dust praise Thee? shall it declare Thy truth?
10 Imvani Yehova ndipo mundichitire chifundo; Yehova mukhale thandizo langa.”
Hear, O LORD, and be gracious unto me; LORD, be Thou my helper.'
11 Inu munasandutsa kulira kwanga kukhala kuvina; munachotsa chiguduli changa ndi kundiveka ndi chimwemwe,
Thou didst turn for me my mourning into dancing; Thou didst loose my sackcloth, and gird me with gladness;
12 kuti mtima wanga uthe kuyimbira Inu usakhale chete. Yehova Mulungu wanga, ndidzapereka kwa Inu mayamiko kwamuyaya.
So that my glory may sing praise to Thee, and not be silent; O LORD my God, I will give thanks unto Thee for ever.
