Psalms 4
1 For the choirmaster. With stringed instruments. A Psalm of David. Answer me when I call, O God of my righteousness! You have relieved my distress; show me grace and hear my prayer.
Kwa mtsogoleri wa mayimbidwe wa zida za zingwe. Salimo la Davide. Ndiyankheni pamene ndiyitana Inu, Inu Mulungu wa chilungamo changa. Pumulitseni ku zowawa zanga; chitireni chifundo ndi kumva pemphero langa.
2 How long, O men, will my honor be maligned? How long will you love vanity and seek after lies?
Anthu inu, mpaka liti mudzakhala mukusandutsa ulemerero wanga kukhala manyazi? Mpaka liti mudzakonda zachabe ndi kufuna milungu yabodza? (Sela)
3 Know that the LORD has set apart the godly for Himself; the LORD hears when I call to Him.
Dziwani kuti Yehova wadziyikira padera anthu okhulupirika; Yehova adzamva pamene ndidzamuyitana.
4 Be angry, yet do not sin; on your bed, search your heart and be still.
Kwiyani koma musachimwe; pamene muli pa mabedi anu, santhulani mitima yanu ndi kukhala chete. (Sela)
5 Offer the sacrifices of the righteous and trust in the LORD.
Perekani nsembe zolungama ndipo dalirani Yehova.
6 Many ask, “Who can show us the good?” Shine the light of Your face upon us, O LORD.
Ambiri akufunsa kuti, “Ndani angationetse chabwino chilichonse?” Kuwunika kwa nkhope yanu kutiwalire, Inu Yehova.
7 You have filled my heart with more joy than when grain and new wine abound.
Inu mwadzaza mtima wanga ndi chimwemwe chachikulu kuposa kuchuluka kwa tirigu wawo ndi vinyo watsopano.
8 I will lie down and sleep in peace, for You alone, O LORD, make me dwell in safety.
Ine ndidzagona ndi kupeza tulo mwamtendere, pakuti Inu nokha, Inu Yehova, mumandisamalira bwino.
