Masalimo 138

1 Salimo la Davide. Ndidzakuyamikani Yehova ndi mtima wanga wonse; ndidzayimba nyimbo zokutamandani pamaso pa “milungu.”

A Psalm for David, of Aggaeus and Zacharias. I will give you thanks, O Lord, with my whole heart; and I will sing psalms to you before the angels; for you have heard all the words of my mouth.

2 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.

I will worship toward your holy temple, and give thanks to your name, on account of your mercy and your truth; for you have magnified your holy name above every thing.

3 Pamene ndinayitana, munandiyankha; munandisandutsa wamphamvu ndi wolimba mtima.

In whatever day I shall call upon you, hear me speedily; you shall abundantly provide me with your power in my soul.

4 Mafumu onse a dziko lapansi akuyamikeni Yehova, pamene amva mawu a pakamwa panu.

Let all the kings of the earth, o Lord, give thanks to you; for they have heard all the words of your mouth.

5 Iwo ayimbe za njira za Yehova, pakuti ulemerero wa Yehova ndi waukulu.

And let them sing in the ways of the Lord; for great is the glory of the Lord.

6 Ngakhale kuti Yehova ngokwezeka, amasamalira odzichepetsa, koma anthu onyada amawadziwira chapatali.

For the Lord is high, and [yet] regards the lowly; and he knows high things from afar off.

7 Ngakhale ndiyende pakati pa masautso, mumasunga moyo wanga; mumatambasula dzanja lanu kutsutsana ndi mkwiyo wa adani anga, mumandipulumutsa ndi dzanja lanu lamanja.

Though I should walk in the midst of affliction, you will quicken me; you have stretched forth your hands against the wrath of mine enemies, and your right hand has saved me.

8 Yehova adzakwaniritsa cholinga chake pa ine; chikondi chanu chosasinthika Yehova, ndi chosatha musasiye ntchito ya manja anu.

O Lord, you shall recompense [them] on my behalf: your mercy, O Lord, [endures] for ever: overlook not the works of your hands.
