Masalimo 96

1 Imbirani Yehova nyimbo yatsopano; Imbirani Yehova dziko lonse lapansi.

Sing to the Lord a new song, sing to the Lord, all the earth.

2 Imbirani Yehova, tamandani dzina lake; lalikirani chipulumutso chake tsiku ndi tsiku.

Sing to the Lord, bless his name, from day to day herald his victory.

3 Lengezani ulemerero wake pakati pa mayiko, ntchito zake zodabwitsa pakati pa mitundu yonse ya anthu.

Tell his glory among the nations, his wonders among all peoples.

4 Pakuti wamkulu ndi Yehova ndipo ndi woyenera kwambiri kumutamanda; ayenera kuopedwa kupambana milungu yonse.

For great is the Lord and worthy all praise; held in awe, above all gods:

5 Pakuti milungu yonse ya anthu a mitundu ina ndi mafano, koma Yehova analenga mayiko akumwamba.

for all the gods of the nations are idols, but the Lord created the heavens.

6 Ulemu ndi ufumu zili pamaso pake, mphamvu ndi ulemerero zili mʼmalo ake opatulika.

Before him are splendour and majesty, beauty and strength in his holy place.

7 Perekani kwa Yehova, inu mabanja a anthu a mitundu ina, perekani kwa Yehova ulemerero ndi mphamvu.

Ascribe to the Lord, you tribes of the nations, ascribe to the Lord glory and strength.

8 Perekani kwa Yehova ulemerero woyenera dzina lake; bweretsani chopereka ndipo mulowe mʼmabwalo ake.

Ascribe to the Lord the glory he manifests: bring you an offering, enter his courts.

9 Lambirani Yehova mu ulemerero wa chiyero chake; njenjemerani pamaso pake, dziko lonse lapansi.

Bow to the Lord in holy array: tremble before him, all the earth.

10 Nenani pakati pa mitundu ya anthu, “Yehova akulamulira.” Dziko lonse lakhazikika molimba, silingasunthidwe; Iye adzaweruza mitundu ya anthu molungama.

Say to the nations, ‘The Lord is king.’ The world stands firm to be shaken no more. He will judge the peoples with equity.

11 Mayiko akumwamba asangalale, dziko lapansi likondwere; nyanja ikokome, ndi zonse zili mʼmenemo;

Let the heavens be glad and the earth rejoice, let the sea and its fulness thunder.

12 minda ikondwere pamodzi ndi chilichonse chili mʼmenemo. Pamenepo mitengo yonse ya mʼnkhalango idzayimba ndi chimwemwe;

Let the field, and all that is in it, exult; let the trees of the forest ring out their joy

13 idzayimba pamaso pa Yehova, pakuti Iye akubwera kudzaweruza dziko lapansi; adzaweruza dziko lonse mwachilungamo ndi mitundu ya anthu onse mʼchoonadi.

before the Lord: for he comes, he comes to judge the earth. He will judge the world with justice and the nations with faithfulness.
