Masalimo 76

1 Kwa mtsogoleri wa mayimbidwe. Pa zoyimbira za zingwe. Salimo la Asafu. Mulungu amadziwika mu Yuda; dzina lake ndi lotchuka mu Israeli.

Unto the end, in praises, a psalm for Asaph: a canticle to the Assyrians. In Judea God is known: his name is great in Israel.

2 Tenti yake ili mu Salemu, malo ake okhalamo mu Ziyoni.

And his place is in peace: and his abode in Sion:

3 Kumeneko Iye anathyola mivi yowuluka, zishango ndi malupanga, zida zankhondo. (Sela)

There hath he broken the powers of bows, the shield, the sword, and the battie.

4 Wolemekezeka ndinu, wamphamvu kuposa mapiri amene ali ndi nyama zambiri.

Thou enlightenest wonderfully from the everlasting hills.

5 Anthu owuma mtima amagona atalandidwa chuma, Iwowo amagona tulo tawo totsiriza; palibe mmodzi wamphamvu amene angatukule manja ake.

All the foolish of heart were troubled. They have slept their sleep; and all the men of riches have found nothing in their hands.

6 Pa kudzudzula kwanu, Inu Mulungu wa Yakobo, kavalo pamodzi ndi galeta zimakhala chete zitagona pansi.

At thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, they have all slumbered that mounted on horseback.

7 Inu nokha ndiye muyenera kuopedwa. Angathe kuyima pamaso panu ndani mukakwiya?

Thou art terrible, and who shall resist thee? from that time thy wrath.

8 Kuchokera kumwamba Inu munalengeza chiweruzo, ndipo dziko linaopa ndi kukhala chete,

Thou hast caused judgment to be heard from heaven: the earth trembled and was still,

9 pamene Inu Mulungu munadzuka kuti muweruze, kupulumutsa onse osautsidwa mʼdziko. (Sela)

When God arose in judgment, to save all the meek of the earth.

10 Zoonadi, ukali wanu pa anthu umakubweretserani matamando ndipo opulumuka ku ukali wanu mumawasunga pafupi nanu.

For the thought of man shall give praise to thee: and the remainders of the thought shall keep holiday to thee.

11 Chitani malumbiro kwa Yehova Mulungu wanu ndipo muwakwaniritse; anthu onse omuzungulira abweretse mphatso kwa Iye amene ayenera kuopedwa.

Vow ye, and pay to the Lord your God: all you that are round about him bring presents. To him that is terrible,

12 Iye amaswa mzimu wa olamulira; amaopedwa ndi mafumu a dziko lapansi.

Even to him who taketh away the spirit of princes: to the terrible with the kings of the earth.
