Psalms 7
1 O Jehovah my God, in thee do I take refuge. Save me from all those who pursue me, and deliver me,
Sigioni wa Davide, amene anayimbira Yehova zokhudza Kusi, wa fuko la Benjamini. Inu Yehova Mulungu wanga, Ine ndikuthawira kwa Inu; pulumutseni ndi kundilanditsa kwa onse amene akundithamangitsa,
2 lest they tear my soul like a lion, rending it in pieces, while there is none to deliver.
mwina angandikadzule ngati mkango, ndi kundingʼamba popanda wondipulumutsa.
3 O Jehovah my God, if I have done this, if there be iniquity in my hands,
Inu Yehova Mulungu wanga, ngati ndachita izi ndipo ndapezeka wolakwa,
4 if I have rewarded evil to him who was at peace with me, (yea, I have delivered him without cause who was my adversary),
ngati ndachita zoyipa kwa iye amene ndili naye pa mtendere, kapena popanda chifukwa ndalanda mdani wanga,
5 let the enemy pursue my soul, and overtake it. Yea, let him tread my life down to the earth, and lay my glory in the dust. (Selah)
pamenepo lolani adani anga andithamangitse ndi kundipitirira, lolani kuti moyo wanga aupondereze pansi ndipo mundigoneke pa fumbi. (Sela)
6 Arise, O Jehovah, in thine anger. Lift up thyself against the rage of my adversaries, and awake for me the justice thou have commanded.
Nyamukani Yehova, mu mkwiyo wanu; nyamukani kutsutsana ndi mkwiyo wa adani anga. Dzukani Mulungu wanga, lamulirani chilungamo chanu.
7 And let the congregation of the peoples encompass thee about, and return thou on high over them.
Lolani gulu la anthu a mitundu ina lisonkhane mokuzungulirani. Alamulireni muli kumwambako;
8 Jehovah shall judge the peoples. Judge me, O Jehovah, according to my righteousness, and to my integrity that is in me.
Yehova aweruzeni anthu a mitundu inayo. Ndiweruzeni Yehova, monga mwa chilungamo changa, monga mwa moyo wanga wangwiro, Inu Wammwambamwamba.
9 O let the wickedness of the wicked man come to an end, but establish thou the righteous man. For the righteous God tries the minds and hearts.
Inu Mulungu wolungama, amene mumasanthula maganizo ndi mitima, thetsani chiwawa cha anthu oyipa ndipo wolungama akhale motetezedwa.
10 My shield is with God, who saves the upright in heart.
Chishango changa ndi Mulungu Wammwambamwamba, amene amapulumutsa olungama mtima.
11 God is a righteous judge. Yea, a God who has indignation every day.
Mulungu amaweruza molungama, Mulungu amene amaonetsa ukali wake tsiku ndi tsiku.
12 If a man does not repent, he will whet his sword. He has bent his bow, and made it ready.
Ngati munthu satembenuka, Mulungu adzanola lupanga lake, Iye adzawerama ndi kukoka uta.
13 He has also prepared for him the instruments of death. He makes his arrows fiery.
Mulungu wakonza zida zake zoopsa; Iye wakonzekera mivi yake yoyaka moto.
14 Behold the wicked man, he travails with iniquity. Yea, he has conceived mischief, and brought forth falsehood.
Taonani, munthu woyipa amalingalira zoyipa zokhazokha nthawi zonse. Zochita zake ndi zosokoneza ndi zovutitsa anthu ena.
15 He has made a pit, and dug it, and is fallen into the ditch which he made.
Iye amene akumba dzenje ndi kulizamitsa amagwera mʼdzenje limene wakumbalo.
16 His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violence shall come down upon his own scalp.
Mavuto amene amayambitsa amamubwerera mwini; chiwawa chake chimatsikira pa mutu wake womwe.
17 I will give thanks to Jehovah according to his righteousness, and will sing praise to the name of Jehovah Most High.
Ine ndidzayamika Yehova chifukwa cha chilungamo chake; ndipo ndidzayimba nyimbo zamatamando pa dzina la Yehova Wammwambamwamba.
