Psalms 76

1 “To the chief musician on Neginoth, a psalm or song of Assaph.” In Judah hath God been made known: in Israel is his name great.

Kwa mtsogoleri wa mayimbidwe. Pa zoyimbira za zingwe. Salimo la Asafu. Mulungu amadziwika mu Yuda; dzina lake ndi lotchuka mu Israeli.

2 And in Salem was his tabernacle made, and his dwelling-place in Zion.

Tenti yake ili mu Salemu, malo ake okhalamo mu Ziyoni.

3 There broke he the shining arrows of the bow, shield, and sword, and battle. (Selah)

Kumeneko Iye anathyola mivi yowuluka, zishango ndi malupanga, zida zankhondo. (Sela)

4 Thou art more brilliant, more excellent than the mountains [full] of prey.

Wolemekezeka ndinu, wamphamvu kuposa mapiri amene ali ndi nyama zambiri.

5 Bereft of reason are the stouthearted, they slumber their sleep: and none of the men of might have found [the use of] their hands.

Anthu owuma mtima amagona atalandidwa chuma, Iwowo amagona tulo tawo totsiriza; palibe mmodzi wamphamvu amene angatukule manja ake.

6 From thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, lie in deep sleep both chariot and horse.

Pa kudzudzula kwanu, Inu Mulungu wa Yakobo, kavalo pamodzi ndi galeta zimakhala chete zitagona pansi.

7 Thou—thou art to be feared: and who may stand in thy sight when once thy anger [is kindled]?

Inu nokha ndiye muyenera kuopedwa. Angathe kuyima pamaso panu ndani mukakwiya?

8 From heaven hast thou caused [thy] sentence to be heard: the earth feared, and became still,

Kuchokera kumwamba Inu munalengeza chiweruzo, ndipo dziko linaopa ndi kukhala chete,

9 When God rose to judgment, to save all the lowly of the earth. (Selah)

pamene Inu Mulungu munadzuka kuti muweruze, kupulumutsa onse osautsidwa mʼdziko. (Sela)

10 For the fury of man shall praise thee: the remainder of the fury wilt thou gird about thee.

Zoonadi, ukali wanu pa anthu umakubweretserani matamando ndipo opulumuka ku ukali wanu mumawasunga pafupi nanu.

11 Make vows, and pay [them] unto the Lord your God, all ye that are round about him: let men bring presents unto him that exciteth fear.

Chitani malumbiro kwa Yehova Mulungu wanu ndipo muwakwaniritse; anthu onse omuzungulira abweretse mphatso kwa Iye amene ayenera kuopedwa.

12 He will cut down the spirit of the powerful: he is terrible to the kings of the earth.

Iye amaswa mzimu wa olamulira; amaopedwa ndi mafumu a dziko lapansi.
