< Masalimo 75 >
1 Kwa mtsogoleri wa mayimbidwe, potsata mayimbidwe a “Musawononge.” Salimo la Asafu. Nyimbo. Tikuthokoza Inu Mulungu, tikuthokoza, pakuti dzina lanu lili pafupi nafe, anthutu amafotokoza za ntchito zanu zodabwitsa.
Siyakubonga, Nkulunkulu, siyabonga, ukuthi ibizo lakho liseduze, iyalandisa imisebenzi yakho emangalisayo.
2 Mumati, “Ine ndimayika nthawi yoyenera, ndine amene ndimaweruza mwachilungamo.
Lapho ngisemukela isikhathi esimisiweyo ngizakwahlulela ngokuqonda.
3 Pamene dziko lapansi ndi anthu ake onse anjenjemera, ndine amene ndimagwiriziza mizati yake molimba. (Sela)
Umhlaba labo bonke abakhileyo kuwo kuncibilikile; mina ngiqinisa insika zawo. (Sela)
4 Kwa odzitama ndikuti, ‘Musadzitamenso,’ ndipo kwa oyipa, ‘Musatukulenso nyanga zanu.
Ngathi kwabayiziwula: Lingabi yiziwula. Lakwababi: Lingaphakamisi uphondo.
5 Musatukule nyanga zanu motsutsana ndi kumwamba; musayankhule ndi khosi losololoka.’”
Lingaphakamiseli phezulu uphondo lwenu, lingakhulumi ngentamo elukhuni.
6 Kugamula milandu sikuchokera kummawa kapena kumadzulo kapena ku chipululu.
Ngoba ukuphakanyiswa kakuveli empumalanga kumbe entshonalanga njalo hatshi enkangala.
7 Koma ndi Mulungu amene amaweruza: Iyeyo amatsitsa wina, nakwezanso wina.
Kodwa uNkulunkulu ungumahluleli, uyehlisa omunye, aphakamise omunye.
8 Mʼdzanja la Yehova muli chikho chodzaza ndi vinyo wochita thovu, wosakanizidwa ndi zokometsera; Iye amamutsanulira pansi ndipo onse oyipa a dziko lapansi amamwa ndi senga zake zonse.
Ngoba esandleni seNkosi kulenkezo; lewayini liphuphuma, ligcwele inhlanganiso; iyathulula okwalo; kodwa izibhidi zalo, ababi bonke bomhlaba bazazihluza bazinathe.
9 Kunena za ine, ndidzalengeza izi kwamuyaya; ndidzayimba matamando kwa Mulungu wa Yakobo.
Kodwa mina ngizatshumayela njalonjalo, ngihlabele indumiso kuNkulunkulu kaJakobe.
10 Ndidzadula nyanga za onse oyipa koma nyanga za olungama zidzakwezedwa.
Njalo zonke impondo zababi ngizaziquma; impondo zabalungileyo zizaphakanyiswa.
