< Psalms 76 >
1 For the Leader; with string-music. A Psalm of Asaph, a Song. In Judah is God known; His name is great in Israel.
Kwa mtsogoleri wa mayimbidwe. Pa zoyimbira za zingwe. Salimo la Asafu. Mulungu amadziwika mu Yuda; dzina lake ndi lotchuka mu Israeli.
2 In Salem also is set His tabernacle, and His dwelling-place in Zion.
Tenti yake ili mu Salemu, malo ake okhalamo mu Ziyoni.
3 There He broke the fiery shafts of the bow; the shield, and the sword, and the battle. (Selah)
Kumeneko Iye anathyola mivi yowuluka, zishango ndi malupanga, zida zankhondo. (Sela)
4 Glorious art Thou and excellent, coming down from the mountains of prey.
Wolemekezeka ndinu, wamphamvu kuposa mapiri amene ali ndi nyama zambiri.
5 The stout-hearted are bereft of sense, they sleep their sleep; and none of the men of might have found their hands.
Anthu owuma mtima amagona atalandidwa chuma, Iwowo amagona tulo tawo totsiriza; palibe mmodzi wamphamvu amene angatukule manja ake.
6 At Thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, they are cast into a dead sleep, the riders also and the horses.
Pa kudzudzula kwanu, Inu Mulungu wa Yakobo, kavalo pamodzi ndi galeta zimakhala chete zitagona pansi.
7 Thou, even Thou, art terrible; and who may stand in Thy sight when once Thou art angry?
Inu nokha ndiye muyenera kuopedwa. Angathe kuyima pamaso panu ndani mukakwiya?
8 Thou didst cause sentence to be heard from heaven; the earth feared, and was still,
Kuchokera kumwamba Inu munalengeza chiweruzo, ndipo dziko linaopa ndi kukhala chete,
9 When God arose to judgment, to save all the humble of the earth. (Selah)
pamene Inu Mulungu munadzuka kuti muweruze, kupulumutsa onse osautsidwa mʼdziko. (Sela)
10 Surely the wrath of man shall praise Thee; the residue of wrath shalt Thou gird upon Thee.
Zoonadi, ukali wanu pa anthu umakubweretserani matamando ndipo opulumuka ku ukali wanu mumawasunga pafupi nanu.
11 Vow, and pay unto the LORD your God; let all that are round about Him bring presents unto Him that is to be feared;
Chitani malumbiro kwa Yehova Mulungu wanu ndipo muwakwaniritse; anthu onse omuzungulira abweretse mphatso kwa Iye amene ayenera kuopedwa.
12 He minisheth the spirit of princes; He is terrible to the kings of the earth.
Iye amaswa mzimu wa olamulira; amaopedwa ndi mafumu a dziko lapansi.
