Masalimo 6
1 Kwa mtsogoleri wa mayimbidwe. Pa zoyimbira za zingwe. Molingana ndi seminiti. Salimo la Davide. Inu Yehova, musandidzudzule mu mkwiyo wanu, kapena kundilanga mu ukali wanu.
For the choirmaster. With stringed instruments, according to Sheminith. A Psalm of David. O LORD, do not rebuke me in Your anger or discipline me in Your wrath.
2 Ndichitireni chifundo Inu Yehova, pakuti ndalefuka; Inu Yehova chiritseni, pakuti mafupa anga ali pa ululu waukulu.
Be merciful to me, O LORD, for I am frail; heal me, O LORD, for my bones are in agony.
3 Moyo wanga uli pa mazunzo aakulu. Mpaka liti, Inu Yehova, mpaka liti?
My soul is deeply distressed. How long, O LORD, how long?
4 Tembenukani Inu Yehova, ndipo mundilanditse; pulumutseni chifukwa cha chikondi chanu chosasinthika.
Turn, O LORD, and deliver my soul; save me because of Your loving devotion.
For there is no mention of You in death; who can praise You from Sheol? (Sheol h7585)
6 Ine ndatopa ndi kubuwula; usiku wonse pa bedi panga pamadzaza ndi misozi yanga; ndimanyowetsa pogona panga ndi misozi.
I am weary from groaning; all night I flood my bed with weeping and drench my couch with tears.
7 Maso anga atupa chifukwa cha chisoni; akulephera kuona chifukwa cha adani anga.
My eyes fail from grief; they grow dim because of all my foes.
8 Chokani kwa ine inu nonse amene mumachita zoyipa, pakuti Yehova wamva kulira kwanga.
Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity, for the LORD has heard my weeping.
9 Yehova wamva kupempha kwanga kofuna chifundo; Yehova walandira pemphero langa.
The LORD has heard my cry for mercy; the LORD accepts my prayer.
10 Adani anga onse adzachita manyazi ndipo adzakhala ndi mantha; adzabwerera msangamsanga mwa manyazi.
All my enemies will be ashamed and dismayed; they will turn back in sudden disgrace.
