Psalms 54

1 “To the chief musician on Neginoth, a Maskil of David, When the Ziphim came and said to Saul, Behold, David is hiding himself with us.” O God, by thy name save me, and by thy strength grant me justice.

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; give ear to the words of my mouth.

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

3 For strangers [to goodness] are risen up against me, and powerful oppressors seek after my soul: they have not set God before them. (Selah)

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

4 Behold, God is a helper unto me: the Lord is among those that uphold my soul.

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

5 He will cause the evil to return upon those that regard me with envy: in thy truth cut them off.

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

6 I will liberally sacrifice unto thee: I will give thanks unto thy name, O Lord; for it is good.

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

7 For out of all distress hath he delivered me: and my eye hath seen [its desire] on my enemies.

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