< Mapisarema 138 >
1 Pisarema raDhavhidhi. Ndichakurumbidzai, imi Jehovha, nomwoyo wangu wose; ndichaimba nziyo dzokukurumbidzai pamberi pa“vamwari.”
Salimo la Davide. Ndidzakuyamikani Yehova ndi mtima wanga wonse; ndidzayimba nyimbo zokutamandani pamaso pa “milungu.”
2 Ndichakotamira pasi ndakatarisa kutemberi yenyu tsvene, uye ndicharumbidza zita renyu nokuda kworudo rwenyu nokutendeka kwenyu, nokuti makakudza zita renyu neshoko renyu pamusoro pezvinhu zvose.
Ndidzagwada kuyangʼana ku Nyumba yanu yoyera ndipo ndidzayamika dzina lanu chifukwa cha chikondi chanu ndi kukhulupirika kwanu, pakuti Inu mwakuza dzina lanu ndi mawu anu kupambana zinthu zonse.
3 Pandakadana, imi makandipindura; makandishingisa nomwoyo wakasimba.
Pamene ndinayitana, munandiyankha; munandisandutsa wamphamvu ndi wolimba mtima.
4 Madzimambo ose enyika ngaakurumbidzei, imi Jehovha, pavanonzwa mashoko omuromo wenyu.
Mafumu onse a dziko lapansi akuyamikeni Yehova, pamene amva mawu a pakamwa panu.
5 Ngavaimbe pamusoro penzira dzaJehovha, nokuti kubwinya kwaJehovha kukuru.
Iwo ayimbe za njira za Yehova, pakuti ulemerero wa Yehova ndi waukulu.
6 Kunyange Jehovha ari kumusoro, anoona vanozvininipisa, asi vanozvikudza anovaziva vari kure.
Ngakhale kuti Yehova ngokwezeka, amasamalira odzichepetsa, koma anthu onyada amawadziwira chapatali.
7 Kunyange ndikafamba pakati penhamo, munochengetedza upenyu hwangu; munotambanudza ruoko rwenyu pamusoro pehasha dzavavengi vangu, munondiponesa noruoko rwenyu rworudyi.
Ngakhale ndiyende pakati pa masautso, mumasunga moyo wanga; mumatambasula dzanja lanu kutsutsana ndi mkwiyo wa adani anga, mumandipulumutsa ndi dzanja lanu lamanja.
8 Jehovha achazadzisa zvirongwa zvake neni; rudo rwenyu, imi Jehovha, runogara nokusingaperi, musasiya mabasa amaoko enyu.
Yehova adzakwaniritsa cholinga chake pa ine; chikondi chanu chosasinthika Yehova, ndi chosatha musasiye ntchito ya manja anu.
