Psalms 21
1 For the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. O LORD, the king rejoices in Your strength. How greatly he exults in Your salvation!
Kwa mtsogoleri wa mayimbidwe. Salimo la Davide. Inu Yehova, mfumu ikusangalala mu mphamvu yanu, chimwemwe chake nʼchachikuludi pa kupambana kumene mumapereka!
2 You have granted his heart’s desire and have not withheld the request of his lips.
Inu mwayipatsa zokhumba za mtima wake ndipo simunayimane zopempha za pa milomo yake. (Sela)
3 For You welcomed him with rich blessings; You placed on his head a crown of pure gold.
Inu munayilandira ndi madalitso ochuluka ndipo munayiveka chipewa chaufumu chagolide weniweni pa mutu wake.
4 He asked You for life, and You granted it— length of days, forever and ever.
Iye anakupemphani moyo, ndipo munamupatsa masiku ochuluka kwamuyaya.
5 Great is his glory in Your salvation; You bestow on him splendor and majesty.
Kudzera mʼzigonjetso zimene munapereka, ulemerero wake ndi waukulu; Inu mwapereka pa iyo ulemerero ndi ufumu.
6 For You grant him blessings forever; You cheer him with joy in Your presence.
Zoonadi Inu mwayipatsa madalitso amuyaya, Inu mwayipatsa chisangalalo ndi chimwemwe chimene chili pamaso panu.
7 For the king trusts in the LORD; through the loving devotion of the Most High, he will not be shaken.
Pakuti mfumu imadalira Yehova; kudzera mʼchikondi chake chosatha cha Wammwambamwamba, iyo sidzagwedezeka.
8 Your hand will apprehend all Your enemies; Your right hand will seize those who hate You.
Dzanja lanu lidzayimitsa adani anu onse; dzanja lanu lamanja lidzagwira adani anu.
9 You will place them in a fiery furnace at the time of Your appearing. In His wrath the LORD will engulf them, and the fire will consume them.
Pa nthawi ya kuonekera kwanu mudzawasandutsa ngʼanjo yamoto yotentha. Mu ukali wake Yehova adzawameza, ndipo moto wake udzawatha.
10 You will wipe their descendants from the earth, and their offspring from the sons of men.
Inu mudzawononga ana awo pa dziko lapansi, zidzukulu zawo pakati pa anthu.
11 Though they intend You harm, the schemes they devise will not prevail.
Ngakhale iwo akukonzereni chiwembu mwa kuchenjera kwawo sadzapambana;
12 For You will put them to flight when Your bow is trained upon them.
pakuti mudzawapirikitsa ndipo adzaonetsa misana yawo pamene mudzawaloza ndi mivi yanu.
13 Be exalted, O LORD, in Your strength; we will sing and praise Your power.
Mukwezeke Inu Yehova mʼmphamvu yanu, ife tidzayimba nyimbo ndi kutamanda mphamvu yanu.
