Psalms 68
1 To the chief Musician. Of David. A Psalm: a Song. Let God arise, let his enemies be scattered, and let them that hate him flee before him.
Kwa mtsogoleri wa mayimbidwe. Salimo la Davide. Adzuke Mulungu, adani ake amwazikane; adani ake athawe pamaso pake.
2 As smoke is driven, thou wilt drive them away; as wax melteth before the fire, the wicked shall perish at the presence of God.
Monga momwe mphepo imachotsera utsi; Inu muwawulutsire kutali. Monga phula limasungunukira pa moto, oyipa awonongeke pamaso pa Mulungu.
3 But the righteous shall rejoice: they shall exult before God and be glad with joy.
Koma olungama asangalale ndi kukondwera pamaso pa Mulungu; iwo akondwere ndi kusangalala.
4 Sing unto God, sing forth his name; cast up a way for him that rideth in the deserts: his name is Jah; and rejoice before him.
Imbirani Mulungu imbirani dzina lake matamando, mukwezeni Iye amene amakwera pa mitambo; dzina lake ndi Yehova ndipo sangalalani pamaso pake.
5 A father of the fatherless, and a judge of the widows, is God in his holy habitation.
Atate wa ana amasiye, mtetezi wa akazi amasiye, ndiye Mulungu amene amakhala mʼmalo oyera.
6 God maketh the solitary into families; those that were bound he bringeth out into prosperity: but the rebellious dwell in a parched [land].
Mulungu amakhazikitsa mtima pansi osungulumwa mʼmabanja, amatsogolera amʼndende ndi kuyimba; koma anthu osamvera amakhala ku malo owuma a dziko lapansi.
7 O God, when thou wentest forth before thy people, when thou didst march through the wilderness (Selah)
Pamene munatuluka kutsogolera anthu anu, Inu Mulungu, pamene munayenda kudutsa chipululu,
8 The earth trembled, the heavens also dropped at the presence of God, yon Sinai, at the presence of God, the God of Israel.
dziko lapansi linagwedezeka, miyamba inakhuthula pansi mvula, pamaso pa Mulungu, Mmodzi uja wa ku Sinai. Pamaso pa Mulungu, Mulungu wa Israeli.
9 Thou, O God, didst pour a plentiful rain upon thine inheritance, and when it was weary thou strengthenedst it.
Munapereka mivumbi yochuluka, Inu Mulungu; munatsitsimutsa cholowa chanu cholefuka.
10 Thy flock hath dwelt therein: thou hast prepared in thy goodness, for the afflicted, O God!
Anthu anu anakhala mʼmenemo ndipo munapatsa anthu osauka zimene zinkawasowa chifukwa cha ubwino wanu Mulungu.
11 The Lord gives the word: great the host of the publishers.
Ambuye analengeza mawu, ndipo gulu linali lalikulu la iwo amene anapita kukawafalitsa;
12 Kings of armies flee; they flee, and she that tarrieth at home divideth the spoil.
“Mafumu ndi ankhondo anathawa mwaliwiro; mʼmisasa anthu anagawana zolanda pa nkhondo.
13 Though ye have lain among the sheepfolds, [ye shall be as] wings of a dove covered with silver, and her feathers with green gold.
Ngakhale mukugona pakati pa makola a ziweto, mapiko a nkhunda akutidwa ndi siliva, nthenga zake ndi golide wonyezimira.”
14 When the Almighty scattered kings in it, it became snow-white as Zalmon.
Pamene Wamphamvuzonse anabalalitsa mafumu mʼdziko, zinali ngati matalala akugwa pa Zalimoni.
15 [As] mount Bashan is the mount of God, a many-peaked mountain, [as] mount Bashan.
Mapiri a Basani ndi mapiri aulemerero; mapiri a Basani, ndi mapiri a msonga zambiri.
16 Why do ye look with envy, ye many-peaked mountains, upon the mount that God hath desired for his abode? yea, Jehovah will dwell [there] for ever.
Muyangʼaniranji mwansanje inu mapiri a msonga zambiri, pa phiri limene Mulungu analisankha kuti azilamulira, kumene Yehova mwini adzakhalako kwamuyaya?
17 The chariots of God are twenty thousand, thousands upon thousands; the Lord is among them: it is a Sinai in holiness.
Magaleta a Mulungu ndi osawerengeka, ndi miyandamiyanda; Ambuye wabwera kuchokera ku Sinai, walowa mʼmalo ake opatulika.
18 Thou hast ascended on high, thou hast led captivity captive: thou hast received gifts in Man, and even [for] the rebellious, for the dwelling [there] of Jah Elohim.
Pamene Inu munakwera mmwamba, munatsogolera a mʼndende ambiri; munalandira mphatso kuchokera kwa anthu, ngakhale kuchokera kwa owukira, kuti Inu Mulungu, mukhale kumeneko.
19 Blessed be the Lord: day by day doth he load us [with good], the God who is our salvation. (Selah)
Matamando akhale kwa Ambuye, kwa Mulungu Mpulumutsi wathu amene tsiku ndi tsiku amasenza zolemetsa zathu.
20 Our God is the God of salvation; and with Jehovah, the Lord, are the goings forth [even] from death.
Mulungu wathu ndi Mulungu amene amapulumutsa; Ambuye Wamphamvuzonse ndiye amene amatipulumutsa ku imfa.
21 Verily God will smite the head of his enemies, the hairy scalp of him that goeth on still in his trespasses.
Ndithu Mulungu adzaphwanya mitu ya adani ake, zipewa za ubweya za iwo amene amapitiriza kuchita machimo awo.
22 The Lord said, I will bring again from Bashan, I will bring [them] again from the depth of the sea;
Ambuye akunena kuti, “Ndidzawabweretsa kuchokera ku Basani; ndidzawabweretsa kuchokera ku nyanja zozama.
23 That thou mayest dip thy foot in blood: the tongue of thy dogs has its portion from enemies.
Kuti muviyike mapazi anu mʼmagazi a adani anu, pamene malilime a agalu anu akudyapo gawo lawo.”
24 They have seen thy goings, O God, the goings of my God, my King, in the sanctuary.
Mayendedwe aulemu a anthu anu aonekera poyera, Inu Mulungu; mayendedwe olemekeza Mulungu wanga ndi Mfumu yanga yokalowa mʼmalo opatulika.
25 The singers went before, the players on stringed instruments after, in the midst of maidens playing on tabrets.
Patsogolo pali oyimba nyimbo pakamwa, pambuyo pawo oyimba nyimbo ndi zipangizo; pamodzi ndi iwo pali atsikana akuyimba matambolini.
26 In the congregations bless ye God, the Lord, — [ye] from the fountain of Israel.
Tamandani Mulungu mu msonkhano waukulu; tamandani Yehova mu msonkhano wa Israeli.
27 There is little Benjamin, their ruler; the princes of Judah, their company; the princes of Zebulun, the princes of Naphtali.
Pali fuko lalingʼono la Benjamini, kuwatsogolera, pali gulu lalikulu la ana a mafumu a Yuda, ndiponso pali ana a mafumu a Zebuloni ndi Nafutali.
28 Thy God hath commanded thy strength: strengthen, O God, that which thou hast wrought for us.
Kungani mphamvu zanu Mulungu; tionetseni nyonga zanu, Inu Mulungu, monga munachitira poyamba.
29 Because of thy temple at Jerusalem shall kings bring presents unto thee.
Chifukwa cha Nyumba yanu ku Yerusalemu, mafumu adzabweretsa kwa Inu mphatso.
30 Rebuke the beast of the reeds, the assembly of the strong, with the calves of the peoples: [every one] submitteth himself with pieces of silver. Scatter the peoples that delight in war.
Dzudzulani chirombo pakati pa mabango, gulu la ngʼombe zazimuna pakati pa ana angʼombe a mitundu ya anthu. Mochititsidwa manyazi, abweretse mitanda ya siliva. Balalitsani anthu a mitundu ina amene amasangalatsidwa ndi nkhondo.
31 Great ones shall come out of Egypt; Ethiopia shall quickly stretch out her hands unto God.
Nthumwi zidzachokera ku Igupto; Kusi adzadzipereka yekha kwa Mulungu.
32 Ye kingdoms of the earth, sing unto God; sing psalms of the Lord, (Selah)
Imbirani Mulungu Inu mafumu a dziko lapansi imbirani Ambuye matamando. (Sela)
33 Of him that rideth upon the heavens, the heavens which are of old: lo, he uttereth his voice, a mighty voice.
Kwa Iye amene amakwera pa mitambo yakalekale ya mmwamba amene amabangula ndi mawu amphamvu.
34 Ascribe ye strength unto God: his excellency is over Israel, and his strength is in the clouds.
Lengezani za mphamvu za Mulungu, amene ulemerero wake uli pa Israeli amene mphamvu zake zili mʼmitambo.
35 Terrible art thou, O God, out of thy sanctuaries, — the God of Israel! He it is that giveth strength and might unto the people. Blessed be God!
Ndinu woopsa, Inu Mulungu mʼmalo anu opatulika; Mulungu wa Israeli amapereka mphamvu ndi nyonga kwa anthu ake. Matamando akhale kwa Mulungu!
