Psalms 69
1 For the end, [a Psalm] of David, for alternate [strains]. Save me, O God; for the waters have come in to my soul.
Kwa mtsogoleri wa mayimbidwe. Salimo la Davide. Potsata mayimbidwe a “Akakombo.” Pulumutseni Inu Mulungu, pakuti madzi afika mʼkhosi
2 I am stuck fast in deep mire, and there is no standing: I am come in to the depths of the sea, and a storm has overwhelmed me.
Ine ndikumira mʼthope lozama mʼmene mulibe popondapo. Ndalowa mʼmadzi ozama; mafunde andimiza.
3 I am weary [of] crying, my throat has become hoarse; mine eyes have failed by my waiting on my God.
Ndafowoka ndikupempha chithandizo; kummero kwanga kwawuma gwaa, mʼmaso mwanga mwada kuyembekezera Mulungu wanga.
4 They that hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head: my enemies that persecute me unrighteously are strengthened: then I restored that which I took not away.
Iwo amene amadana nane popanda chifukwa ndi ochuluka kuposa tsitsi la kumutu kwanga; ambiri ndi adani anga popanda chifukwa, iwo amene akufunafuna kundiwononga. Ndikukakamizidwa kubwezera zomwe sindinabe.
5 O God, you know my foolishness; and my transgressions are not hidden from you.
Mukudziwa uchitsiru wanga, Inu Mulungu, kulakwa kwanga sikuli kobisika kwa Inu.
6 Let not them that wait on you, O Lord of hosts, be ashamed on my account: let not them that seek you, be ashamed on my account, O God of Israel.
Iwo amene amadalira Inu asanyozedwe chifukwa cha ine, Inu Ambuye Wamphamvuzonse. Iwo amene amafunafuna Inu asachititsidwe manyazi chifukwa cha ine, Inu Mulungu wa Israeli.
7 For I have suffered reproach for your sake; shame has covered my face.
Pakuti ndimapirira kunyozedwa chifukwa cha Inu, ndipo manyazi amaphimba nkhope yanga.
8 I became strange to my brethren, and a stranger to my mother's children.
Ndine mlendo kwa abale anga, munthu wakudza kwa ana aamuna a amayi anga;
9 For the zeal of your house has eaten me up; and the reproaches of them that reproached you are fallen upon me.
pakuti changu chochitira nyumba yanu chandiphetsa ndipo chipongwe cha iwo amene amanyoza Inu chandigwera.
10 And I bowed down my soul with fasting, and that was made my reproach.
Pamene ndikulira ndi kusala kudya, ndiyenera kupirira kunyozedwa;
11 And I put on sackcloth for my covering; and I became a proverb to them.
pomwe ndavala chiguduli, anthu amandiseweretsa.
12 They that sit in the gate talked against me, and they that drank wine sang against me.
Iwo amene amakhala pa chipata amandinena, ndipo ine ndine nyimbo ya zidakwa.
13 But I [will cry] to you, O Lord, in my prayer; O God, it is a propitious time: in the multitude of your mercy hear me, in the truth of your salvation.
Koma ndikupempha kwa Inu Ambuye, pa nthawi yanu yondikomera mtima; mwa chikondi chanu chachikulu Inu Mulungu, mundiyankhe pondipulumutsa.
14 Save me from the mire, that I stick not [in it]: let me be delivered from them that hate me, and from the deep waters.
Mundilanditse kuchoka mʼmatope, musalole kuti ndimire, pulumutseni ine kwa iwo amene amadana nane, kuchoka mʼmadzi ozama.
15 Let not the waterflood drown me, nor let the deep swallow me up; neither let the well shut its mouth upon me.
Musalole kuti chigumula chindimeze, kuya kusandimeze ndipo dzenje lisatseke pakamwa pake kundimiza.
16 Hear me, O Lord; for your mercy is good: according to the multitude of your compassions look upon me.
Ndiyankheni Inu Yehova mwa ubwino wanu wa chikondi chanu; mwa chifundo chanu chachikulu tembenukirani kwa ine.
17 And turn not away your face from your servant; for I am afflicted: hear me speedily.
Musabisire nkhope yanu mtumiki wanu, ndiyankheni msanga, pakuti ndili pa mavuto.
18 Draw near to my soul and redeem it: deliver me because of mine enemies.
Bwerani pafupi ndi kundilanditsa; ndiwomboleni chifukwa cha adani anga.
19 For you know my reproach, and my shame, and my confusion; all that afflict me are before you.
Inu mukudziwa momwe ndanyozedwera, kunyozedwa ndi kuchititsidwa manyazi; adani anga onse ali pamaso panu.
20 My soul has waited for reproach and misery; and I waited for one to grieve with me, but there was none; and for one to comfort me, but I found none.
Mnyozo waswa mtima wanga ndipo wandisiya wopanda thandizo lililonse; ndinafunafuna ena woti andichitire chisoni, koma panalibe ndi mmodzi yemwe woti anditonthoze, sindinapeze ndi mmodzi yemwe.
21 They gave [me] also gall for my food, and made me drink vinegar for my thirst.
Iwo anayika ndulu mʼchakudya changa ndi kundipatsa vinyo wosasa chifukwa cha ludzu.
22 Let their table before them be for a snare, and for a recompense, and for a stumbling block.
Chakudya chomwe chayikidwa patsogolo pawo chikhale msampha; chikhale chobwezera chilango ndiponso khwekhwe.
23 Let their eyes be darkened that they should not see; and bow down their back continually.
Maso awo adetsedwe kotero kuti asaonenso ndipo misana yawo ipindike mpaka kalekale.
24 Pour out your wrath upon them, and let the fury of your anger take hold on them.
Khuthulirani ukali wanu pa iwo; mkwiyo wanu woyaka moto uwathe mphamvu.
25 Let their habitation be made desolate; and let there be no inhabitant in their tents:
Malo awo akhale wopanda anthu pasapezeke ndi mmodzi yemwe wokhala mʼmatenti awo.
26 Because they persecuted him whom you have struck; and they have added to the grief of my wounds.
Pakuti iwo amazunza amene inu munamuvulaza ndi kuyankhula zowawa kwa amene munawapweteka.
27 Add iniquity to their iniquity; and let them not come into your righteousness.
Awonjezereni kulakwa pa kulakwa kwawo, musalole kuti akhale ndi gawo pa chipulumutso chanu.
28 Let them be blotted out of the book of the living, and let them not be written with the righteous.
Iwo afufutidwe mʼbuku la amoyo ndipo asalembedwe pamodzi ndi olungama.
29 I am poor and sorrowful; but the salvation of your countenance has helped me.
Ndikumva zowawa ndi kuzunzika; lolani chipulumutso chanu, Inu Mulungu, chinditeteze.
30 I will praise the name of my God with a song, I will magnify him with praise;
Ine ndidzatamanda dzina la Mulungu mʼnyimbo, ndidzalemekeza Iye ndi chiyamiko.
31 and [this] shall please God more than a young calf having horns and hoofs.
Izi zidzakondweretsa Yehova kupambana ngʼombe, kupambananso ngʼombe yayimuna, pamodzi ndi nyanga ndi ziboda zake.
32 Let the poor see and rejoice; seek the Lord diligently, and you shall live.
Wosauka adzaona ndipo adzasangalala, Inu amene mumafunafuna Mulungu, mitima yanu ikhale ndi moyo!
33 For the Lord hears the poor, and does not set at nothing his fettered ones.
Yehova amamvera anthu osowa ndipo sanyoza anthu ake omangidwa.
34 Let the heavens and the earth raise him, the sea, and all things moving in them.
Kumwamba ndi dziko lapansi zitamanda Iye, nyanja ndi zonse zomwe zimayenda mʼmenemo,
35 For God will save Sion, and the cities of Judea shall be built; and [men] shall dwell there, and inherit it.
pakuti Mulungu adzapulumutsa Ziyoni ndi kumanganso mizinda ya Yuda, anthu adzakhala kumeneko ndipo dzikolo lidzakhala lawo;
36 And the seed of his servants shall possess it, and they that love his name shall dwell therein.
ana atumiki ake adzalitenga kukhala cholowa chawo, ndipo iwo amene amakonda dzina lake adzakhala kumeneko.
