< Psalms 110 >
1 Yahweh said to my lord [the king], “Sit [here], close to me, in the place of highest honor [MTY] until I [completely defeat] your enemies [MET] [and] make [them like] a stool for your feet!”
Salimo la Davide. Yehova akuwuza Mbuye wanga kuti, “Khala ku dzanja langa lamanja mpaka nditasandutsa adani ako kukhala chopondapo mapazi ako.”
2 Yahweh [also said to him], “I will extend your power as king from Jerusalem [to other lands]; you will rule over all your enemies.
Yehova adzakuza ndodo yamphamvu ya ufumu wako kuchokera mʼZiyoni; udzalamulira pakati pa adani ako.
3 On the day that you lead your armies into battle, many of your people will volunteer [to join your army]. Like the dew refreshes the earth early in the morning, young men will [encourage you by] coming to help you.”
Ankhondo ako adzakhala odzipereka pa tsiku lako la nkhondo. Atavala chiyero chaulemerero, kuchokera mʼmimba ya mʼbandakucha, udzalandira mame a unyamata wako.
4 Yahweh has made a solemn promise, and he will never change his mind; he has said to the king, “You will be a priest forever [serving Yahweh] like Melchizedek did.”
Yehova walumbira ndipo sadzasintha maganizo ake: “Ndiwe wansembe mpaka muyaya monga mwa unsembe wa Melikizedeki.”
5 Yahweh stands [in the place of highest honor] your right side; when he becomes angry, he will defeat [many kings].
Ambuye ali kudzanja lako lamanja; Iye adzaponda mafumu pa tsiku la ukali wake.
6 He will judge and punish the people of [many] nations; he will fill the land with their corpses. He will crush the heads of other kings all over the earth.
Adzaweruza anthu a mitundu ina, adzadzaza dziko lapansi ndi mitembo ndipo adzaphwanya olamulira a pa dziko lonse lapansi.
7 But my lord the king will drink from streams near the road; he will be refreshed after defeating his enemies.
Iye adzamwa mu mtsinje wa mʼmbali mwa njira; choncho adzaweramutsa mutu wake.
