Psalms 64

1 Hear my voice, O God, in my complaint. Preserve my life from fear of the enemy.

Kwa mtsogoleri wa mayimbidwe. Salimo la Davide. Ndimvereni Mulungu pomwe ndikunena madandawulo anga; tetezani moyo wanga ku chiopsezo cha mdani.

2 Hide me from the secret counsel of evildoers, from the tumult of the workers of iniquity,

Ndibiseni ku chiwembu cha anthu oyipa, ku gulu laphokoso la anthu ochita zoyipa.

3 who have whet their tongue like a sword, and have aimed their arrows, even bitter words,

Iwo amanola malilime awo ngati malupanga, amaponya mawu awo olasa ngati mivi.

4 that they may shoot in secret places at a blameless man. Suddenly do they shoot at him, and fear not.

Iwo amaponya mivi yawo ali pa malo wobisala kwa munthu wosalakwa; amamulasa modzidzimutsa ndi mopanda mantha.

5 They encourage themselves in an evil purpose. They converse of laying snares secretly. They say, Who will see them?

Iwo amalimbikitsana wina ndi mnzake pa chikonzero chawo choyipa, amayankhula zobisa misampha yawo; ndipo amati, “Adzayiona ndani?”

6 They search out iniquities, saying, We have accomplished a diligent search. And the inward part of man and the heart are deep.

Iwo amakonzekera zosalungama ndipo amati, “Takonza ndondomeko yabwino kwambiri!” Ndithu maganizo ndi mtima wa munthu ndi zachinyengo.

7 But God will shoot at them. With an arrow they shall suddenly be wounded.

Koma Mulungu adzawalasa ndi mivi; mwadzidzidzi adzakanthidwa.

8 So they shall be made to stumble, their own tongue being against them. All who see them shall wag the head.

Iye adzatembenuza milomo yawoyo kuwatsutsa ndi kuwasandutsa bwinja; onse amene adzawaona adzagwedeza mitu yawo mowanyoza.

9 And all men shall fear. And they shall declare the work of God, and shall wisely consider of his doing.

Anthu onse adzachita mantha; adzalengeza ntchito za Mulungu ndi kulingalira mozama zomwe Iye wazichita.

10 A righteous man shall be glad in Jehovah, and shall take refuge in him. And all the upright in heart shall glory.

Lolani wolungama akondwere mwa Yehova ndi kubisala mwa Iye, owongoka mtima onse atamande Iye!
