Psalms 69
1 Save me, O God; for the waters are come in unto my soul.
Kwa mtsogoleri wa mayimbidwe. Salimo la Davide. Potsata mayimbidwe a “Akakombo.” Pulumutseni Inu Mulungu, pakuti madzi afika mʼkhosi
2 I sink in deep mire, where there is no standing: I am come into deep waters, where the floods overflow me.
Ine ndikumira mʼthope lozama mʼmene mulibe popondapo. Ndalowa mʼmadzi ozama; mafunde andimiza.
3 I am weary of my crying: my throat is dried: mine eyes fail while I wait for my God.
Ndafowoka ndikupempha chithandizo; kummero kwanga kwawuma gwaa, mʼmaso mwanga mwada kuyembekezera Mulungu wanga.
4 They that hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of mine head: they that would destroy me, being mine enemies wrongfully, are mighty: then I restored that which I took not away.
Iwo amene amadana nane popanda chifukwa ndi ochuluka kuposa tsitsi la kumutu kwanga; ambiri ndi adani anga popanda chifukwa, iwo amene akufunafuna kundiwononga. Ndikukakamizidwa kubwezera zomwe sindinabe.
5 O God, thou knowest my foolishness; and my sins are not hid from thee.
Mukudziwa uchitsiru wanga, Inu Mulungu, kulakwa kwanga sikuli kobisika kwa Inu.
6 Let not them that wait on thee, O Lord Yhwh of Armies, be ashamed for my sake: let not those that seek thee be confounded for my sake, O God of Israel.
Iwo amene amadalira Inu asanyozedwe chifukwa cha ine, Inu Ambuye Wamphamvuzonse. Iwo amene amafunafuna Inu asachititsidwe manyazi chifukwa cha ine, Inu Mulungu wa Israeli.
7 Because for thy sake I have borne reproach; shame hath covered my face.
Pakuti ndimapirira kunyozedwa chifukwa cha Inu, ndipo manyazi amaphimba nkhope yanga.
8 I am become a stranger unto my brethren, and an alien unto my mother’s children.
Ndine mlendo kwa abale anga, munthu wakudza kwa ana aamuna a amayi anga;
9 For the zeal of thine house hath eaten me up; and the reproaches of them that reproached thee are fallen upon me.
pakuti changu chochitira nyumba yanu chandiphetsa ndipo chipongwe cha iwo amene amanyoza Inu chandigwera.
10 When I wept, and chastened my soul with fasting, that was to my reproach.
Pamene ndikulira ndi kusala kudya, ndiyenera kupirira kunyozedwa;
11 I made sackcloth also my garment; and I became a proverb to them.
pomwe ndavala chiguduli, anthu amandiseweretsa.
12 They that sit in the gate speak against me; and I was the song of the drunkards.
Iwo amene amakhala pa chipata amandinena, ndipo ine ndine nyimbo ya zidakwa.
13 But as for me, my prayer is unto thee, O Yhwh, in an acceptable time: O God, in the multitude of thy mercy hear me, in the truth of thy salvation.
Koma ndikupempha kwa Inu Ambuye, pa nthawi yanu yondikomera mtima; mwa chikondi chanu chachikulu Inu Mulungu, mundiyankhe pondipulumutsa.
14 Deliver me out of the mire, and let me not sink: let me be delivered from them that hate me, and out of the deep waters.
Mundilanditse kuchoka mʼmatope, musalole kuti ndimire, pulumutseni ine kwa iwo amene amadana nane, kuchoka mʼmadzi ozama.
15 Let not the waterflood overflow me, neither let the deep swallow me up, and let not the pit shut her mouth upon me.
Musalole kuti chigumula chindimeze, kuya kusandimeze ndipo dzenje lisatseke pakamwa pake kundimiza.
16 Hear me, O Yhwh; for thy lovingkindness is good: turn unto me according to the multitude of thy tender mercies.
Ndiyankheni Inu Yehova mwa ubwino wanu wa chikondi chanu; mwa chifundo chanu chachikulu tembenukirani kwa ine.
17 And hide not thy face from thy servant; for I am in trouble: hear me speedily.
Musabisire nkhope yanu mtumiki wanu, ndiyankheni msanga, pakuti ndili pa mavuto.
18 Draw nigh unto my soul, and redeem it: deliver me because of mine enemies.
Bwerani pafupi ndi kundilanditsa; ndiwomboleni chifukwa cha adani anga.
19 Thou hast known my reproach, and my shame, and my dishonour: mine adversaries are all before thee.
Inu mukudziwa momwe ndanyozedwera, kunyozedwa ndi kuchititsidwa manyazi; adani anga onse ali pamaso panu.
20 Reproach hath broken my heart; and I am full of heaviness: and I looked for some to take pity, but there was none; and for comforters, but I found none.
Mnyozo waswa mtima wanga ndipo wandisiya wopanda thandizo lililonse; ndinafunafuna ena woti andichitire chisoni, koma panalibe ndi mmodzi yemwe woti anditonthoze, sindinapeze ndi mmodzi yemwe.
21 They gave me also gall for my meat; and in my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.
Iwo anayika ndulu mʼchakudya changa ndi kundipatsa vinyo wosasa chifukwa cha ludzu.
22 Let their table become a snare before them: and that which should have been for their welfare, let it become a trap.
Chakudya chomwe chayikidwa patsogolo pawo chikhale msampha; chikhale chobwezera chilango ndiponso khwekhwe.
23 Let their eyes be darkened, that they see not; and make their loins continually to shake.
Maso awo adetsedwe kotero kuti asaonenso ndipo misana yawo ipindike mpaka kalekale.
24 Pour out thine indignation upon them, and let thy wrathful anger take hold of them.
Khuthulirani ukali wanu pa iwo; mkwiyo wanu woyaka moto uwathe mphamvu.
25 Let their habitation be desolate; and let none dwell in their tents.
Malo awo akhale wopanda anthu pasapezeke ndi mmodzi yemwe wokhala mʼmatenti awo.
26 For they persecute him whom thou hast smitten; and they talk to the grief of those whom thou hast wounded.
Pakuti iwo amazunza amene inu munamuvulaza ndi kuyankhula zowawa kwa amene munawapweteka.
27 Add iniquity unto their iniquity: and let them not come into thy righteousness.
Awonjezereni kulakwa pa kulakwa kwawo, musalole kuti akhale ndi gawo pa chipulumutso chanu.
28 Let them be blotted out of the book of the living, and not be written with the righteous.
Iwo afufutidwe mʼbuku la amoyo ndipo asalembedwe pamodzi ndi olungama.
29 But I am poor and sorrowful: let thy salvation, O God, set me up on high.
Ndikumva zowawa ndi kuzunzika; lolani chipulumutso chanu, Inu Mulungu, chinditeteze.
30 I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify him with thanksgiving.
Ine ndidzatamanda dzina la Mulungu mʼnyimbo, ndidzalemekeza Iye ndi chiyamiko.
31 This also shall please Yhwh better than an ox or bullock that hath horns and hoofs.
Izi zidzakondweretsa Yehova kupambana ngʼombe, kupambananso ngʼombe yayimuna, pamodzi ndi nyanga ndi ziboda zake.
32 The humble shall see this, and be glad: and your heart shall live that seek God.
Wosauka adzaona ndipo adzasangalala, Inu amene mumafunafuna Mulungu, mitima yanu ikhale ndi moyo!
33 For Yhwh heareth the poor, and despiseth not his prisoners.
Yehova amamvera anthu osowa ndipo sanyoza anthu ake omangidwa.
34 Let the heaven and earth praise him, the seas, and every thing that moveth therein.
Kumwamba ndi dziko lapansi zitamanda Iye, nyanja ndi zonse zomwe zimayenda mʼmenemo,
35 For God will save Zion, and will build the cities of Judah: that they may dwell there, and have it in possession.
pakuti Mulungu adzapulumutsa Ziyoni ndi kumanganso mizinda ya Yuda, anthu adzakhala kumeneko ndipo dzikolo lidzakhala lawo;
36 The seed also of his servants shall inherit it: and they that love his name shall dwell therein.
ana atumiki ake adzalitenga kukhala cholowa chawo, ndipo iwo amene amakonda dzina lake adzakhala kumeneko.
