Salimo
Nyimbo ya Davide.
141 Inu Yehova, ine ndakuitanani.+
Bwerani mofulumira kuti mudzandithandize.+
Mutchere khutu ndikamakuitanani.+
2 Pemphero langa likhale ngati zofukiza+ zokonzedwa pamaso panu,+
Mapembedzero anga akhale ngati nsembe yambewu yamadzulo.+
4 Musalole kuti mtima wanga uzikonda chinthu chilichonse choipa,+
Komanso kuti ndizichita zinthu zoipa limodzi ndi anthu oipa.
Sindikufuna kudya chakudya chawo chapamwamba.
5 Wolungama akandimenya ndiye kuti wandisonyeza chikondi chokhulupirika.+
Akandidzudzula zingakhale ngati wandidzoza mafuta pamutu,+
Mafuta amene mutu wanga sungawakane.+
Ndidzapemphererabe anthu olungama ngakhale pamene masoka awagwera.
6 Ngakhale oweruza awo atawagwetsera pansi kuchokera pathanthwe,
Anthu adzamvetsera mawu anga chifukwa ndi osangalatsa.
8 Koma ine maso anga ali pa inu Yehova, Ambuye Wamkulu Koposa.+
Ine ndathawira kwa inu.
Musachotse moyo wanga.
9 Nditetezeni kuti ndisagwidwe pamsampha umene anditchera,
Kuti ndisakodwe ndi makhwekhwe a anthu ochita zoipa.
