Psalms 108

1 Song of a Psalm by David. O God, my heart is ready, my heart is ready; I will sing and sing psalms with my glory.

Nyimbo. Salimo la Davide. Mtima wanga ndi wokhazikika, Inu Mulungu; ndidzayimba nyimbo, inde ndidzayimba nyimbo zotamanda ndi moyo wanga wonse.

2 Awake, lute and harp; I will awake early.

Dzukani, zeze ndi pangwe! Ine ndidzadzutsa mʼbandakucha.

3 I will give thanks to you, O Lord, amongst the people; I will sing praise to you amongst the Gentiles.

Ndidzakutamandani Yehova, pakati pa anthu a mitundu ina; ndidzayimba za Inu pakati pa anthu a mitundu ina.

4 For your mercy is great above the heavens, and your truth [reaches] to the clouds.

Pakuti chikondi chanu nʼchachikulu, kutalika kwake kuposa kumwamba; kukhulupirika kwanu kumafika mlengalenga.

5 Be you exalted, O God, above the heavens; and your glory above all the earth.

Kwezekani Inu Mulungu, kuposa mayiko akumwamba, ndipo ulemerero wanu uphimbe dziko lonse lapansi.

6 That your beloved [ones] may be delivered, save with your right hand, and hear me. God has spoken in his sanctuary;

Tipulumutseni ndi kutithandiza ndi dzanja lanu lamanja kuti iwo amene mumawakonda apulumutsidwe.

7 I will be exalted, and will divide Sicima, and will measure out the valley of tents.

Mulungu wayankhula kuchokera ku malo ake opatulika: “Mwachipambano Ine ndidzagawa Sekemu ndipo ndidzayesa chigwa cha Sukoti.

8 Galaad is mine; and Manasses is mine; and Ephraim is the help of mine head; Judas is my king;

Giliyadi ndi wanga, Manase ndi wanganso; Efereimu ndi chipewa changa chodzitetezera, Yuda ndi ndodo yanga yaufumu.

9 Moab is the cauldron of my hope; over Idumea will I cast my sandal; the Philistines are made subject to me.

Mowabu ndi mbale yanga yosambiramo ndidzaponya nsapato zanga pa Edomu; ndidzafuwula mopambana pa Filisitiya.”

10 Who will bring me into the fortified city? or who will guide me to Idumea?

Ndani adzandifikitsa ku mzinda wotetezedwa? Ndani adzanditsogolera ku Edomu?

11 Will not you, O God, who have rejected us? and will not you, O God, go forth with our hosts?

Kodi sindinu Mulungu, Inu amene mwatikana ndipo simuperekezanso magulu athu ankhondo?

12 Give us help from tribulation: for vain is the help of man.

Tithandizeni ife kulimbana ndi mdani, pakuti thandizo la munthu ndi lopanda pake.

13 Through God we shall do valiantly; and he will bring to nothing our enemies.

Chifukwa cha Mulungu wathu, ife tidzapeza chipambano, ndipo adzapondereza pansi adani athu.
