Psalms 138

1 Of David. I give You thanks with all my heart; before the gods I sing Your praises.

Salimo la Davide. Ndidzakuyamikani Yehova ndi mtima wanga wonse; ndidzayimba nyimbo zokutamandani pamaso pa “milungu.”

2 I bow down toward Your holy temple and give thanks to Your name for Your loving devotion and Your faithfulness; You have exalted Your name and Your word above all else.

Ndidzagwada kuyangʼana ku Nyumba yanu yoyera ndipo ndidzayamika dzina lanu chifukwa cha chikondi chanu ndi kukhulupirika kwanu, pakuti Inu mwakuza dzina lanu ndi mawu anu kupambana zinthu zonse.

3 On the day I called, You answered me; You emboldened me and strengthened my soul.

Pamene ndinayitana, munandiyankha; munandisandutsa wamphamvu ndi wolimba mtima.

4 All the kings of the earth will give You thanks, O LORD, when they hear the words of Your mouth.

Mafumu onse a dziko lapansi akuyamikeni Yehova, pamene amva mawu a pakamwa panu.

5 They will sing of the ways of the LORD, for the glory of the LORD is great.

Iwo ayimbe za njira za Yehova, pakuti ulemerero wa Yehova ndi waukulu.

6 Though the LORD is on high, He attends to the lowly; but the proud He knows from afar.

Ngakhale kuti Yehova ngokwezeka, amasamalira odzichepetsa, koma anthu onyada amawadziwira chapatali.

7 If I walk in the midst of trouble, You preserve me from the anger of my foes; You extend Your hand, and Your right hand saves me.

Ngakhale ndiyende pakati pa masautso, mumasunga moyo wanga; mumatambasula dzanja lanu kutsutsana ndi mkwiyo wa adani anga, mumandipulumutsa ndi dzanja lanu lamanja.

8 The LORD will fulfill His purpose for me. O LORD, Your loving devotion endures forever— do not abandon the works of Your hands.

Yehova adzakwaniritsa cholinga chake pa ine; chikondi chanu chosasinthika Yehova, ndi chosatha musasiye ntchito ya manja anu.
