< Amahubo 28 >
1 Ngiyakhala kuwe, Nkosi; dwala lami, ungangithuleli, hlezi nxa ungithulela, ngifanane labehlela emgodini.
Salimo la Davide. Kwa Inu ine ndiyitana, Yehova ndinu Thanthwe langa; musakhale osamva kwa ine. Pakuti mukapitirira kukhala chete, ndidzakhala ngati iwo amene atsikira ku dzenje.
2 Zwana ilizwi lokuncenga kwami lapho ngikhala kuwe, lapho ngiphakamisela izandla zami endaweni yakho yelizwi engcwele.
Imvani kupempha chifundo kwanga pomwe ndikuyitana kwa Inu kuti mundithandize, pomwe ndikukweza manja anga kuloza ku malo anu oyeretsetsa.
3 Ungangihuduli kanye lababi njalo kanye labenzi bobubi, abakhuluma ukuthula labomakhelwane babo, kodwa ububi busenhliziyweni yabo.
Musandikokere kutali pamodzi ndi anthu oyipa, pamodzi ndi iwo amene amachita zoyipa, amene amayankhula mwachikondi ndi anzawo koma akusunga chiwembu mʼmitima mwawo.
4 Ubanike njengokwenza kwabo, lanjengobubi bezenzo zabo; ubanike njengokomsebenzi wezandla zabo, ubabuyisele isenzo sabo.
Muwabwezere chifukwa cha zochita zawo ndi ntchito zawo zoyipa; abwezereni chifuwa cha zimene manja awo achita ndipo mubweretse pa iwo zimene zowayenera.
5 Ngoba kabayinanzi imisebenzi yeNkosi lokwenza kwezandla zayo, izababhidliza ingabakhi.
Popeza iwowo sakhudzidwa ndi ntchito za Yehova, ndi zimene manja ake anazichita, Iye adzawakhadzula ndipo sadzawathandizanso.
6 Kayibongwe iNkosi, ngoba ilizwile ilizwi lokuncenga kwami.
Matamando apite kwa Yehova, popeza Iye wamva kupempha chifundo kwanga.
7 INkosi ingamandla ami lesihlangu sami; inhliziyo yami ithembela kuyo, ngiyasizwa; ngakho inhliziyo yami iyathokoza, ngiyidumise ngengoma yami.
Yehova ndiye mphamvu yanga ndi chishango changa; mtima wanga umadalira Iye, ndipo Ine ndathandizidwa. Mtima wanga umalumphalumpha chifukwa cha chimwemwe ndipo ndidzayamika Iye mʼnyimbo.
8 INkosi ingamandla abo, njalo iyinqaba yezinsindiso zogcotshiweyo wayo.
Yehova ndi mphamvu ya anthu ake, linga la chipulumutso kwa wodzozedwa wake.
9 Sindisa abantu bakho, ubusise ilifa lakho, beluse, ubaphakamise kuze kube nininini.
Pulumutsani anthu anu ndipo mudalitse cholowa chanu; mukhale mʼbusa wawo ndipo muwakweze kwamuyaya.
