< Masalimo 55 >
1 Kwa mtsogoleri wa mayimbidwe. Ndakatulo ya Davide. Pa zoyimbira za zingwe. Mvetserani pemphero langa, Inu Mulungu, musakufulatire kupempha kwanga,
Dawid “maskil” dwom. Ao Onyankopɔn, tie me mpaeɛbɔ, mmu wʼani ngu me nkotosrɛ so,
2 mverani ndipo mundiyankhe. Maganizo anga akundisautsa ndipo ndathedwa nzeru
tie me na gye me so. Me dadwene ha me na ama mayɛ basaa,
3 chifukwa cha mawu a adani anga, chifukwa cha kupondereza kwa anthu oyipa; pakuti andidzetsera masautso ndipo akundizunza mu mkwiyo wawo.
wɔ deɛ mʼatamfoɔ reka ne sɛdeɛ amumuyɛfoɔ hwɛ me haa nti; wɔde amanehunu brɛ me; na wɔde abufuo sopa me.
4 Mtima wanga ukupweteka mʼkati mwanga; mantha a imfa andigwera.
Mʼakoma wɔ ahoyera mu; na owuo huboa aba me so.
5 Mantha ndi kunjenjemera zandizinga; mantha aakulu andithetsa nzeru.
Ehu ne ahopopoɔ akyekyere me. Ahodwirie abu afa me so.
6 Ndinati, “Ndithu, ndikanakhala ndi mapiko ankhunda! Ndikanawulukira kutali ndi kukapuma.
Mekaa sɛ, “Ao, sɛ mewɔ ntaban sɛ aburuburo a, anka mɛtu akɔ ama me ho atɔ me,
7 Ndikanathawira kutali ndi kukakhala mʼchipululu.
anka mɛtu akɔ akyirikyiri akɔtena ɛserɛ so;
8 Ndikanathamangira kumalo anga a chitetezo; kutali ndi mphepo yaukali ndi yamkuntho.”
anka mɛyɛ ntɛm akɔ mʼahintaeɛ, baabi a mframaden ne ahum mmɛn koraa.”
9 Sokonezani maganizo a oyipa, Inu Ambuye, tsutsani mawu awo; pakuti ine ndikuona chiwawa ndi mkangano mu mzinda.
Ao Awurade, ma amumuyɛfoɔ nyɛ basaa, na ma wɔn kasa ntoto, ɛfiri sɛ mɛhunu basabasayɛ ne apereapereɛ wɔ kuropɔn no mu.
10 Usana ndi usiku iwo akuzungulirazungulira pa makoma ake; nkhwidzi ndi kuzunza kuli mʼkati mwake.
Awia ne anadwo wɔtetɛ nʼafasuo ho; adwemmɔne ne nsisie wɔ mu.
11 Mphamvu zowononga zili pa ntchito mu mzinda; kuopseza ndi mabodza sizichoka mʼmisewu yake.
Adesɛefoɔ dɔm reyɛ adwuma kuropɔn no mu. Ahunahuna ne nnaadaa wɔ ne mmɔntene so daa.
12 Akanakhala mdani akundinyoza, ine ndikanapirira; akanakhala mdani akudzikweza yekha kutsutsana nane, ndikanakabisala.
Sɛ ɛyɛɛ ɔtamfoɔ na ɔresopa me a, anka mɛtumi agyina ano; sɛ ɛyɛɛ ɔtamfoɔ na ɔrema ne ho so atia me a, anka mɛtumi de me ho ahinta no.
13 Koma iweyo mnzanga, mnzanga woyenda naye, bwenzi langa la pondaapanʼpondepo, ndi amene ukuchita zimenezi.
Nanso, ɛyɛ wo, ɔdasani te sɛ me, me yɔnko pa ne me mʼadamfo brɛboɔ,
14 Mnzanga amene nthawi ina tinkasangalala pa chiyanjano chokoma ku nyumba ya Mulungu.
a kane no na me ne no wɔ ayɔnkofa a emu yɛ den ɛberɛ a yɛn nyinaa abɔ mu yuu rekɔ Onyankopɔn fie no.
15 Mulole imfa itenge adani anga mwadzidzidzi; alowe mʼmanda ali amoyo pakuti choyipa chili pakati pawo. (Sheol )
Ma owuo mmɛfa mʼatamfoɔ mpofirim; ma wɔnkɔ damena mu anikann, ɛfiri sɛ bɔne te wɔn mu. (Sheol )
16 Koma ine ndinafuwulira kwa Mulungu, ndipo Yehova anandipulumutsa.
Nanso, mesu frɛ Onyankopɔn, na Awurade gye me nkwa.
17 Madzulo, mmawa ndi masana ndimalira mowawidwa mtima, ndipo Iye amamva mawu anga.
Anwummerɛ, anɔpa ne awia, mede mmɔborɔnne su frɛ no, na ɔte me nne.
18 Iye amandiwombola ine osavulazidwa pa nkhondo imene yafika kulimbana nane, ngakhale kuti ndi ambiri amene akunditsutsa.
Ɔde ne ho bɔ afɔdeɛ ma me nya me tiri didim wɔ ɔko a wɔko tiaa me no mu, mpo bebree na wɔko tia me.
19 Mulungu amene ali pa mpando wake kwamuyaya, adzandimenyera nkhondo; adzawatsitsa adani anga, chifukwa safuna kusintha njira zawo zoyipa ndipo saopa Mulungu.
Onyankopɔn a wɔasi no ɔhene afebɔɔ no, ɔbɛte wɔn nka na waha wɔn, ɔbɛha nnipa a wɔnsesa wɔn akwan da na wɔnsuro Onyankopɔn nso.
20 Mnzanga woyenda naye wathira nkhondo abwenzi ake; iye akuphwanya pangano ake.
Me yɔnko to hyɛ ne nnamfonom so; na ɔbu nʼapam so.
21 Mawu ake ndi osalala kuposa batala komabe nkhondo ili mu mtima mwake; mawu ake ndi osalala kwambiri kuposa mafuta, komatu mawuwo ndi malupanga osololoka.
Ɔwɔ tɛkrɛmawoɔ, nanso ɔtan wɔ nʼakomam. Nʼano asɛm dwodwo sene ngo, nanso ɛyɛ akofena a wɔatwe.
22 Tulani nkhawa zanu kwa Yehova ndipo Iye adzakulimbitsani; Iye sadzalola kuti wolungama agwe.
Fa wo haw to Awurade so na ɔno na ɔbɛgye wo; ɔremma ɔteneneeni nhwe ase.
23 Koma Inu Mulungu mudzawatsitsa anthu oyipa kulowa mʼdzenje lachiwonongeko; anthu okhetsa magazi ndi anthu achinyengo sadzakhala moyo theka la masiku awo, koma ine ndimadalira Inu.
Nanso, wo, Ao Onyankopɔn, wobɛbrɛ amumuyɛfoɔ ase ama wɔakɔ porɔeɛ amena mu; mogyapɛfoɔ ne adaadaafoɔ renni wɔn nkwanna mu fa. Me deɛ, mede me ho to wo so. Wɔde ma dwomkyerɛfoɔ. Wɔto no sɛdeɛ wɔto “Aburuburo a ɔsi Akyirikyiri Odum so.”
