Masalimo
Lurombo lwa Davide.
17 A Yehova, pulikani apo nkhuŵeya kuti nisange urunji.
Pulikani kulira kwane kupempha wovwiri.
Tegherezgani lurombo lwane lwambura upusikizgi.+
2 Munidumulire mulandu wane mu urunji.+
Maso ghinu ghawone icho ntchakwenelera.
3 Mwasanda mtima wane, mwaniskora usiku,+
Mwaniyenga,+
Musangenge kuti nindaghanaghanepo chinthu chiheni,
Ndipo mulomo wane undaswe dango.
4 Kweniso pa vyakuchita vya ŵanthu,
Nkhupulikira mazgu gha milomo yinu, nkhugega nthowa za wakupoka vyaŵene.+
5 Mphanyi nalutilira kwenda mu nthowa zinu,
Mwakuti malundi ghane ghaleke kukhuŵara.+
6 Nkhumuchemani, A Chiuta, chifukwa munizgorenge.+
Thyani khutu linu kwa ine. Pulikani mazgu ghane.+
7 Longorani lusungu* lwinu mu nthowa yakuzizwiska,+
Mwe Mponoski wa awo ŵali ku woko linu lamalyero,
Kubisama ku awo ŵakumugalukirani.
9 Nisungilirani ku ŵaheni awo ŵakuniwukira,
Ku ŵalwani ŵane awo ŵakunizingilizga.+
10 Ŵakulungara.*
Ŵakuyowoya mwakujikuzga na mulomo wawo.
11 Sono ŵakutifinyilizga.+
Ŵakupenja m’pata kuti ŵatiwiskire pasi.
12 Wali nga ni nkhalamu iyo yanozgeka kutwazura nyama,
Nga ni mwana wa nkhalamu uyo wakukhazga nyama.
