< Psalms 46 >
1 For the choirmaster. Of the sons of Korah. According to Alamoth. A song. God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in times of trouble.
Kwa mtsogoleri wa mayimbidwe. Ndakatulo ya ana a Kora. Nyimbo ya anamwali. Mulungu ndiye kothawira kwathu ndi mphamvu yathu, thandizo lopezekeratu pa nthawi ya mavuto.
2 Therefore we will not fear, though the earth is transformed and the mountains are toppled into the depths of the seas,
Nʼchifukwa chake sitidzaopa ngakhale dziko lapansi lisunthike, ngakhale mapiri agwe pakati pa nyanja,
3 though their waters roar and foam and the mountains quake in the surge.
ngakhale madzi ake atakokoma ndi kuchita thovu, ngakhale mapiri agwedezeke ndi kukokoma kwake.
4 There is a river whose streams delight the city of God, the holy place where the Most High dwells.
Kuli mtsinje umene njira zake za madzi zimasangalatsa mzinda wa Mulungu, malo oyera kumene Wammwambamwamba amakhalako.
5 God is within her; she will not be moved. God will help her when morning dawns.
Mulungu ali mʼkati mwake, iwo sudzagwa; Mulungu adzawuthandiza mmawa.
6 Nations rage, kingdoms crumble; the earth melts when He lifts His voice.
Mitundu ikupokosera, mafumu akugwa; Iye wakweza mawu ake, dziko lapansi likusungunuka.
7 The LORD of Hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress.
Yehova Wamphamvuzonse ali ndi ife, Mulungu wa Yakobo ndi linga lathu.
8 Come, see the works of the LORD, who brings devastation upon the earth.
Bwerani kuti mudzaone ntchito za Yehova, chiwonongeko chimene wachibweretsa pa dziko lapansi.
9 He makes wars to cease throughout the earth; He breaks the bow and shatters the spear; He burns the shields in the fire.
Iye amathetsa nkhondo ku malekezero a dziko lapansi; Iye amathyola uta ndi kupindapinda mkondo; amatentha zishango ndi moto.
10 “Be still and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted over the earth.”
Iye akuti, “Khala chete, ndipo dziwa kuti ndine Mulungu; ndidzakwezedwa pakati pa mitundu ya anthu; ine ndidzakwezedwa mʼdziko lapansi.”
11 The LORD of Hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress.
Yehova Wamphamvuzonse ali ndi ife, Mulungu wa Yakobo ndi linga lathu.
