Psalms 20

1 Unto the end. A psalm for David. May the Lord hear thee in the day of tribulation: may the name of the God of Jacob protect thee.

Kwa mtsogoleri wa mayimbidwe. Salimo la Davide. Yehova akuyankhe pamene uli pa msautso; dzina la Mulungu wa Yakobo likuteteze.

2 May he send thee help from the sanctuary: and defend thee out of Sion.

Iye atumize thandizo kuchokera ku malo ake opatulika; akugwirizize kuchokera ku Ziyoni.

3 May he be mindful of all thy sacrifices: and may thy whole burnt offering be made fat.

Iye akumbukire nsembe zako zonse ndipo alandire nsembe zako zopsereza. (Sela)

4 May he give thee according to thy own heart; and confirm all thy counsels.

Akupatse chokhumba cha mtima wako ndipo akuthandize kuti zonse wakonza zichitike.

5 We will rejoice in thy salvation; and in the name of our God we shall be exalted.

Ife tidzafuwula ndi chimwemwe pamene iwe wapambana ndipo tidzanyamula mbendera zathu mʼdzina la Mulungu wathu, Yehova ayankhe zopempha zako zonse.

6 The Lord fulfill all thy petitions: now have I known that the Lord hath saved his anointed. He will hear him from his holy heaven: the salvation of his right hand is in powers.

Tsopano ndadziwa kuti Yehova amapulumutsa wodzozedwa wake; Iye amamuyankha kuchokera kumwamba ku malo ake opatulika ndi mphamvu yopulumutsa ya dzanja lake lamanja.

7 Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will call upon the name of the Lord our God.

Ena amadalira magaleta ndipo ena akavalo koma ife tidzadalira dzina la Yehova Mulungu wathu.

8 They are bound, and have fallen; but we are risen, and are set upright.

Iwo amagonjetsedwa ndi kugwa, koma ife timadzuka ndi kuyima chilili.

9 O Lord, save the king: and hear us in the day that we shall call upon thee.

Inu Yehova, pulumutsani mfumu! Tiyankheni pamene tikuyitanani!
