Psalms 64

1 Unto the end, a psalm for David. Hear, O God, my prayer, when I make supplication to thee: deliver my soul from the fear of the enemy.

Kwa mtsogoleri wa mayimbidwe. Salimo la Davide. Ndimvereni Mulungu pomwe ndikunena madandawulo anga; tetezani moyo wanga ku chiopsezo cha mdani.

2 Thou hast protected me from the assembly of the malignant; from the multitude of the workers of iniquity.

Ndibiseni ku chiwembu cha anthu oyipa, ku gulu laphokoso la anthu ochita zoyipa.

3 For they have whetted their tongues like a sword; they have bent their bow a bitter thing,

Iwo amanola malilime awo ngati malupanga, amaponya mawu awo olasa ngati mivi.

4 To shoot in secret the undefiled.

Iwo amaponya mivi yawo ali pa malo wobisala kwa munthu wosalakwa; amamulasa modzidzimutsa ndi mopanda mantha.

5 They will shoot at him on a sudden, and will not fear: they are resolute in wickedness. They have talked of hiding snares; they have said: Who shall see them?

Iwo amalimbikitsana wina ndi mnzake pa chikonzero chawo choyipa, amayankhula zobisa misampha yawo; ndipo amati, “Adzayiona ndani?”

6 They have searched after iniquities: they have failed in their search. Man shall come to a deep heart:

Iwo amakonzekera zosalungama ndipo amati, “Takonza ndondomeko yabwino kwambiri!” Ndithu maganizo ndi mtima wa munthu ndi zachinyengo.

7 And God shall be exalted. The arrows of children are their wounds:

Koma Mulungu adzawalasa ndi mivi; mwadzidzidzi adzakanthidwa.

8 And their tongues against them are made weak. All that saw them were troubled;

Iye adzatembenuza milomo yawoyo kuwatsutsa ndi kuwasandutsa bwinja; onse amene adzawaona adzagwedeza mitu yawo mowanyoza.

9 And every man was afraid. And they declared the works of God: and understood his doings.

Anthu onse adzachita mantha; adzalengeza ntchito za Mulungu ndi kulingalira mozama zomwe Iye wazichita.

10 The just shall rejoice in the Lord, and shall hope in him: and all the upright in heart shall be praised.

Lolani wolungama akondwere mwa Yehova ndi kubisala mwa Iye, owongoka mtima onse atamande Iye!
