Masalimo 87

1 Salimo la Ana a Kora. Iye wakhazikitsa maziko ake pa phiri loyera;

A Psalme or song committed to the sonnes of Korah. God layde his foundations among the holy mountaines.

2 Yehova amakonda zipata za Ziyoni kupambana malo onse okhalamo a Yakobo.

The Lord loueth the gates of Zion aboue all the habitations of Iaakob.

3 Za ulemerero wako zimakambidwa, Iwe mzinda wa Mulungu: (Sela)

Glorious things are spoken of thee, O citie of God. (Selah)

4 “Ndidzanena za Rahabe ndi Babuloni pakati pa iwo amene amandidziwa. Dzikonso la Filisitiya, Turo pamodzi ndi Kusi, ndipo ndidzati, ‘Uyu anabadwira mʼZiyoni.’”

I will make mention of Rahab and Babel among them that knowe me: beholde Palestina and Tyrus with Ethiopia, There is he borne.

5 Ndithudi, za Ziyoni adzanena kuti, “Uyu ndi uyo anabadwira mwa iye, ndipo Wammwambamwamba adzakhazikitsa iyeyo.”

And of Zion it shall be sayde, Many are borne in her: and he, euen the most High shall stablish her.

6 Yehova adzalemba mʼbuku la kawundula wa anthu a mitundu ina: “Uyu anabadwira mʼZiyoni.” (Sela)

The Lord shall count, when hee writeth the people, He was borne there. (Selah)

7 Oyimba ndi ovina omwe adzati, “Akasupe anga onse ali mwa iwe.”

Aswell the singers as the players on instruments shall prayse thee: all my springs are in thee.
