< Psalms 46 >
1 God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
Kwa mtsogoleri wa mayimbidwe. Ndakatulo ya ana a Kora. Nyimbo ya anamwali. Mulungu ndiye kothawira kwathu ndi mphamvu yathu, thandizo lopezekeratu pa nthawi ya mavuto.
2 Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;
Nʼchifukwa chake sitidzaopa ngakhale dziko lapansi lisunthike, ngakhale mapiri agwe pakati pa nyanja,
3 Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. (Selah)
ngakhale madzi ake atakokoma ndi kuchita thovu, ngakhale mapiri agwedezeke ndi kukokoma kwake.
4 There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacles of the most High.
Kuli mtsinje umene njira zake za madzi zimasangalatsa mzinda wa Mulungu, malo oyera kumene Wammwambamwamba amakhalako.
5 God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her, and that right early.
Mulungu ali mʼkati mwake, iwo sudzagwa; Mulungu adzawuthandiza mmawa.
6 The heathen raged, the kingdoms were moved: he uttered his voice, the earth melted.
Mitundu ikupokosera, mafumu akugwa; Iye wakweza mawu ake, dziko lapansi likusungunuka.
7 Yhwh of Armies is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. (Selah)
Yehova Wamphamvuzonse ali ndi ife, Mulungu wa Yakobo ndi linga lathu.
8 Come, behold the works of Yhwh, what desolations he hath made in the earth.
Bwerani kuti mudzaone ntchito za Yehova, chiwonongeko chimene wachibweretsa pa dziko lapansi.
9 He maketh wars to cease unto the end of the earth; he breaketh the bow, and cutteth the spear in sunder; he burneth the chariot in the fire.
Iye amathetsa nkhondo ku malekezero a dziko lapansi; Iye amathyola uta ndi kupindapinda mkondo; amatentha zishango ndi moto.
10 Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.
Iye akuti, “Khala chete, ndipo dziwa kuti ndine Mulungu; ndidzakwezedwa pakati pa mitundu ya anthu; ine ndidzakwezedwa mʼdziko lapansi.”
11 Yhwh of Armies is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. (Selah)
Yehova Wamphamvuzonse ali ndi ife, Mulungu wa Yakobo ndi linga lathu.
