Psalms 2
1 Why do the nations rage and the peoples plot in vain?
Nʼchifukwa chiyani anthu a mitundu ina akufuna kuchita chiwembu? Akonzekeranji zopanda pake anthu?
2 The kings of the earth take their stand and the rulers gather together, against the LORD and against His Anointed One:
Mafumu a dziko lapansi akugwirizana nazo; ndipo olamulira asonkhana pamodzi kulimbana ndi Ambuye ndi wodzozedwa wakeyo.
3 “Let us break Their chains and cast away Their cords.”
Iwo akunena kuti, “Tiyeni timasule magoli awo ndipo titaye zingwe zawo.”
4 The One enthroned in heaven laughs; the Lord taunts them.
Wokhala mmwamba akuseka; Ambuye akuwanyoza iwowo.
5 Then He rebukes them in His anger, and terrifies them in His fury:
Ndipo iye awadzudzula mu mkwiyo wake ndi kuwaopseza mu ukali wake, kunena kuti,
6 “I have installed My King on Zion, upon My holy mountain.”
“Ine ndakhazikitsa mfumu yanga pa Ziyoni, phiri langa loyera.”
7 I will proclaim the decree spoken to Me by the LORD: “You are My Son; today I have become Your Father.
Ine ndidzalengeza zimene Yehova walamula: Iye anati kwa Ine, “Iwe ndiwe mwana wanga; lero Ine ndakhala Atate ako.
8 Ask Me, and I will make the nations Your inheritance, the ends of the earth Your possession.
Tandipempha, ndipo ndidzachititsa kuti mitundu ya anthu ikhale cholowa chako; malekezero a dziko lapansi kuti akhale chuma chako.
9 You will break them with an iron scepter; You will shatter them like pottery.”
Iweyo udzawalamulira ndi ndodo yaufumu yachitsulo; udzawaphwanya zidutswazidutswa ngati zowumba zadothi.”
10 Therefore be wise, O kings; be admonished, O judges of the earth.
Kotero, inu mafumu, chenjerani; chenjezedwani, inu olamulira a dziko lapansi.
11 Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling.
Tumikirani Yehova mwa mantha ndi kukondwerera ulamuliro wake monjenjemera.
12 Kiss the Son, lest He be angry and you perish in your rebellion, when His wrath ignites in an instant. Blessed are all who take refuge in Him.
Mpsopsoneni mwanayo kuti angakwiye; kuti mungawonongedwe mʼnjira zanu, pakuti ukali wake utha kuuka mʼkanthawi kochepa. Odala ndi onse amene amathawira kwa Iye.
