Masalimo 32
1 Salimo la Davide. Malangizo. Ngodala munthu amene zolakwa zake zakhululukidwa; amene machimo ake aphimbidwa.
Of David. Instruction. Blessed is he [whose] transgression is forgiven, [whose] sin is covered!
2 Ngodala munthu amene machimo ake Yehova sawawerengeranso pa iye ndipo mu mzimu mwake mulibe chinyengo.
Blessed is the man unto whom Jehovah reckoneth not iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no guile!
3 Pamene ndinali chete, mafupa anga anakalamba chifukwa cha kubuwula kwanga tsiku lonse.
When I kept silence, my bones waxed old, through my groaning all the day long.
4 Pakuti usana ndi usiku dzanja lanu linandipsinja; mphamvu zanga zinatha monga nthawi yotentha yachilimwe. (Sela)
For day and night thy hand was heavy upon me; my moisture was turned into the drought of summer. (Selah)
5 Kotero ine ndinavomereza tchimo langa kwa Inu, sindinabise mphulupulu zanga. Ndinati, “Ine ndidzawulula zolakwa zanga kwa Yehova, ndipo Inu munandikhululukira mlandu wa machimo anga.” (Sela)
I acknowledged my sin unto thee, and mine iniquity I covered not; I said, I will confess my transgressions unto Jehovah, and thou forgavest the iniquity of my sin. (Selah)
6 Choncho aliyense okhulupirika apemphere kwa Inuyo pomwe mukupezeka; ndithu pamene madzi amphamvu auka, sadzamupeza.
For this shall every one that is godly pray unto thee at a time when thou mayest be found: surely in the floods of great waters they will not reach him.
7 Inu ndi malo anga obisala; muzinditeteza ku mavuto ndipo muzindizinga ndi nyimbo zachipulumutso. (Sela)
Thou art a hiding-place for me; thou preservest me from trouble; thou dost encompass me with songs of deliverance. (Selah)
8 Ndidzakulangiza ndi kukuphunzitsa njira imene udzayendamo; ndidzakupatsa uphungu ndi kukuyangʼanira.
I will instruct thee and teach thee the way in which thou shalt go; I will counsel [thee] with mine eye upon thee.
9 Usakhale ngati kavalo kapena bulu, zimene zilibe nzeru, koma ziyenera kuwongoleredwa ndi zitsulo za mʼkamwa ndi pamutu, ukapanda kutero sizibwera kwa iwe.
Be ye not as a horse, as a mule, which have no understanding: whose trappings must be bit and bridle, for restraint, or they will not come unto thee.
10 Zowawa ndi zambiri za anthu oyipa koma chikondi chosatha cha Yehova chimamuzinga munthu amene amadalira Iye.
Many sorrows hath the wicked; but he that confideth in Jehovah, loving-kindness shall encompass him.
11 Kondwerani mwa Yehova inu olungama; imbani, inu nonse amene muli owongoka mtima!
Rejoice in Jehovah, and be glad, ye righteous; and shout for joy, all ye upright in heart.
