Masalimo 99

1 Yehova akulamulira, mitundu ya anthu injenjemere; Iye wakhala pa mpando wake waufumu, pakati pa akerubi, dziko lapansi ligwedezeke.

Jehovah reigneth; let the peoples tremble: He sitteth [above] the cherubim; let the earth be moved.

2 Mʼziyoni wamkulu ndi Yehova; Iye ndi wokwezeka pamwamba pa mitundu yonse ya anthu.

Jehovah is great in Zion; And he is high above all the peoples.

3 Anthu atamande dzina lanu lalikulu ndi loopsa kwambiri, Iye ndi woyera.

Let them praise thy great and terrible name: Holy is he.

4 Mfumu yamphamvu, iyo imakonda chilungamo Inu mwakhazikitsa khalidwe losakondera; mwachita zolungama ndi zoyenera mwa Yakobo.

The king’s strength also loveth justice; Thou dost establish equity; Thou executest justice and righteousness in Jacob.

5 Kwezani Yehova Mulungu wathu ndipo mulambireni pa mapazi ake; Iye ndi woyera.

Exalt ye Jehovah our God, And worship at his footstool: Holy is he.

6 Mose ndi Aaroni anali ena mwa ansembe ake, Samueli anali pamodzi ndi iwo amene anayitana pa dzina lake; iwo anayitana Yehova ndipo Iyeyo anawayankha.

Moses and Aaron among his priests, And Samuel among them that call upon his name; They called upon Jehovah, and he answered them.

7 Iye anayankhula nawo kuchokera mʼchipilala cha mtambo; iwo anasunga malamulo ake ndi zophunzitsa zomwe anawapatsa.

He spake unto them in the pillar of cloud: They kept his testimonies, And the statute that he gave them.

8 Inu Yehova Mulungu wathu, munawayankha iwo; Inu kwa Israeli munali Mulungu wokhululuka, ngakhale munawalanga pa zochita zawo zoyipa.

Thou answeredst them, O Jehovah our God: Thou wast a God that forgavest them, Though thou tookest vengeance of their doings.

9 Kwezani Yehova Mulungu wathu ndipo mumulambire pa phiri lake loyera, pakuti Yehova Mulungu wathu ndi woyera.

Exalt ye Jehovah our God, And worship at his holy hill; For Jehovah our God is holy.
