< Psalms 43 >
1 Judge me, O God, And plead my cause against a nation not pious, From a man of deceit and perverseness Thou dost deliver me,
Onetsani kusalakwa kwanga Inu Mulungu; ndipo mundinenere mlandu wanga kutsutsana ndi mtundu wosapembedza; mundilanditse mʼmanja mwa achinyengo ndi anthu oyipa.
2 For thou [art] the God of my strength. Why hast Thou cast me off? Why mourning do I go up and down, In the oppression of an enemy?
Pajatu Inu Mulungu ndinu mphamvu zanga. Nʼchifukwa chiyani mwandikana ine? Nʼchifukwa chiyani ndiyenera kuyenda ndikulira, woponderezedwa ndi mdani?
3 Send forth Thy light and Thy truth, They — they lead me, they bring me in, Unto Thy holy hill, and unto Thy tabernacles.
Tumizani kuwunika kwanu ndi choonadi chanu kuti zinditsogolere; mulole kuti zindifikitse ku phiri lanu loyera, kumalo kumene inu mumakhala.
4 And I go in unto the altar of God, Unto God, the joy of my rejoicing. And I thank Thee with a harp, O God, my God.
Ndipo ndidzapita ku guwa lansembe la Mulungu, kwa Mulungu, chimwemwe changa ndi chikondwerero changa. Ndidzakutamandani ndi zeze, Inu Mulungu wanga.
5 What! bowest thou thyself, O my soul? And what! art thou troubled within me? Wait for God, for still I confess Him, The salvation of my countenance, and my God!
Nʼchifukwa chiyani uli ndi chisoni iwe moyo wanga? Nʼchifukwa chiyani wakhumudwa iwe mʼkati mwanga? Khulupirira Mulungu, pakuti ndidzamutamandabe Iye, Mpulumutsi wanga ndi Mulungu wanga.
