Psalms 54

1 For the end, among Hymns of instruction by David, when the Ziphites came and said to Saul, Behold, is not David hid with us? Save me, O God, by your name, and judge me by your might.

Kwa mtsogoleri wa mayimbidwe. Pa zoyimbira za zingwe. Ndakatulo ya Davide. Pamene anthu a ku Zifi anapita kwa Sauli ndipo anati, “Kodi Davide sakubisala pakati pathu.” Pulumutseni Inu Mulungu, mwa dzina lanu; onetsani kuti ndine wosalakwa mwamphamvu yanu.

2 O God, hear my prayer; listen to the words of my mouth.

Imvani pemphero langa, Inu Mulungu mvetserani mawu a pakamwa panga.

3 For strangers have risen up against me, and mighty men have sought my life: they have not set God before them. (Pause)

Alendo akundithira nkhondo; anthu ankhanza akufunafuna moyo wanga, anthu amene salabadira za Mulungu.

4 For behold! God assists me; and the Lord is the helper of my soul.

Zoonadi Mulungu ndi thandizo langa; Ambuye ndiye amene amandichirikiza ine.

5 He shall return evil to mine enemies; utterly destroy them in your truth.

Lolani kuti choyipa chifike pa iwo amene amandichita chipongwe; mwa kukhulupirika kwanu awonongeni.

6 I will willingly sacrifice to you: I will give thanks to your name, O Lord; for [it is] good.

Ine ndidzapereka nsembe yaufulu kwa Inu; ndidzatamanda dzina lanu, Inu Yehova, pakuti ndi labwino.

7 For you have delivered me out of all affliction, and mine eye has seen [my desire] upon mine enemies.

Pakuti Iyeyo wandipulumutsa ku masautso anga onse, ndipo maso anga apenya kupambana kwa pa adani anga.
