< Masalimo 76 >
1 Kwa mtsogoleri wa mayimbidwe. Pa zoyimbira za zingwe. Salimo la Asafu. Mulungu amadziwika mu Yuda; dzina lake ndi lotchuka mu Israeli.
For the Leader; with string-music. A Psalm of Asaph, a Song. In Judah is God known; His name is great in Israel.
2 Tenti yake ili mu Salemu, malo ake okhalamo mu Ziyoni.
In Salem also is set His tabernacle, and His dwelling-place in Zion.
3 Kumeneko Iye anathyola mivi yowuluka, zishango ndi malupanga, zida zankhondo. (Sela)
There He broke the fiery shafts of the bow; the shield, and the sword, and the battle. (Selah)
4 Wolemekezeka ndinu, wamphamvu kuposa mapiri amene ali ndi nyama zambiri.
Glorious art Thou and excellent, coming down from the mountains of prey.
5 Anthu owuma mtima amagona atalandidwa chuma, Iwowo amagona tulo tawo totsiriza; palibe mmodzi wamphamvu amene angatukule manja ake.
The stout-hearted are bereft of sense, they sleep their sleep; and none of the men of might have found 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 are cast into a dead sleep, the riders also and the horses.
7 Inu nokha ndiye muyenera kuopedwa. Angathe kuyima pamaso panu ndani mukakwiya?
Thou, even Thou, art terrible; and who may stand in Thy sight when once Thou art angry?
8 Kuchokera kumwamba Inu munalengeza chiweruzo, ndipo dziko linaopa ndi kukhala chete,
Thou didst cause sentence to be heard from heaven; the earth feared, and was still,
9 pamene Inu Mulungu munadzuka kuti muweruze, kupulumutsa onse osautsidwa mʼdziko. (Sela)
When God arose to judgment, to save all the humble of the earth. (Selah)
10 Zoonadi, ukali wanu pa anthu umakubweretserani matamando ndipo opulumuka ku ukali wanu mumawasunga pafupi nanu.
Surely the wrath of man shall praise Thee; the residue of wrath shalt Thou gird upon Thee.
11 Chitani malumbiro kwa Yehova Mulungu wanu ndipo muwakwaniritse; anthu onse omuzungulira abweretse mphatso kwa Iye amene ayenera kuopedwa.
Vow, and pay unto the LORD your God; let all that are round about Him bring presents unto Him that is to be feared;
12 Iye amaswa mzimu wa olamulira; amaopedwa ndi mafumu a dziko lapansi.
He minisheth the spirit of princes; He is terrible to the kings of the earth.
