Masalimo 92
1 Salimo. Nyimbo ya pa tsiku la Sabata. Nʼkwabwino kutamanda Yehova ndi kuyimbira nyimbo dzina lanu, Inu Wammwambamwamba,
A Melody, a Song, For the Sabbath-day. It is good to give thanks to Yahweh, And to sing praises unto thy Name, O Most High;
2 Kulengeza chikondi chanu mmawa, ndi kukhulupirika kwanu nthawi ya usiku,
To declare, in the morning, thy lovingkindness, And thy faithfulness at night;
3 kuyimbira nyimbo choyimbira cha zingwe khumi ndi mayimbidwe abwino a zeze.
Upon an instrument of ten strings, and upon a harp, With resounding music on the lyre.
4 Pakuti Inu mumandisangalatsa ndi ntchito zanu, Inu Yehova; Ine ndikuyimba mwachimwemwe pa ntchito ya manja anu.
For thou hast made me glad, O Yahweh, in thy doing, In the works of thy hands, will I shout for joy.
5 Ndi yayikuludi ntchito yanu Yehova, maganizo anu ndi ozamadi!
How great have grown thy works, Yahweh, [How] very deep are laid thy plans!
6 Munthu wopanda nzeru sadziwa, zitsiru sizizindikira,
A man that is brutish, cannot know, And, a dullard, cannot discern this: —
7 kuti ngakhale anthu oyipa aphuka ngati udzu ndipo anthu onse ochita zoyipa apindula, adzawonongedwa kwamuyaya.
When the lawless do thrive like grass, And all the workers of iniquity have blossomed, It is that they may be destroyed for ever.
8 Koma Inu Yehova, ndinu wokwezedwa kwamuyaya.
But, thou, shalt be on high age-abidingly, O Yahweh.
9 Zoonadi adani anu Yehova, zoonadi adani anu adzawonongeka; onse ochita zoyipa adzabalalitsidwa.
For lo! thine enemies, Yahweh, For lo! thine enemies, shall perish, They shall be scattered—all the workers of iniquity;
10 Inu mwakweza nyanga yanga ngati nyanga ya njati; mafuta abwino akhuthulidwa pamutu wanga.
But thou wilt exalt, as [those of] the buffalo, my horn, I have been anointed, with fresh oil.
11 Maso anga aona kugonjetsedwa kwa olimbana nane, makutu anga amva za kugwa kwa amaliwongo anga oyipa.
So hath mine eye descried them who were lying in wait for me, —Of my wicked assailants, mine ears, shall hear.
12 Anthu olungama adzaphuka ngati mtengo wa mgwalangwa, adzakula ngati mkungudza wa ku Lebanoni;
The righteous, like the palm-tree, shall thrive, Like the cedar in Lebanon, shall he grow;
13 odzalidwa mʼnyumba ya Yehova, adzakula bwino mʼmabwalo a Mulungu wathu.
They who are planted in the house of Yahweh, In the courts of our God, shall flourish;
14 Iwo adzaberekabe zipatso mu ukalamba wawo, adzakhala anthete ndi obiriwira,
Still shall they bear fruit in old age, Vigorous and fresh, shall they be:
15 kulengeza kuti, “Yehova ndi wolungama; Iye ndiye Thanthwe langa, ndipo mwa Iye mulibe choyipa.”
To declare that upright is Yahweh, My Rock, and no perversity in him.
