Masalimo
Kwa wakulongozga sumu. Sumu ya Davide.
31 Nabisama mwa imwe, A Yehova.+
Ningalengeskekanga chara.+
Nithaskani chifukwa cha urunji winu.+
2 Thyani khutu kwa ine.
Zani luŵiro na kunithaska.+
Muŵe phiri lane lakukhora,
Malo ghakuvikilirika kuti muniponoske.+
3 Pakuti ndimwe jalawe lane na linga lane lakukhora.+
5 Naŵikizga mzimu wane mu woko linu.+
Mwaniwombora, A Yehova Chiuta waunenesko.*+
6 Nkhutinkha awo ŵakujipeleka ku vikozgo vyawakawaka na vyambura ntchito.
Kweni ine, nkhuthemba Yehova.
7 Nisekelerenge chomene mu lusungu* lwinu,
Chifukwa mwawona visuzgo vyane.+
Mukumanya kukweŵeka kwane.
8 Mundanipeleke mu woko la mulwani,
Kweni mukuniyimika mu malo ghachivikiliro.*
9 Munilongore lusungu, A Yehova, pakuti nili mu suzgo.
Maso ghane ghalopwa na ulwilwi,+ kweniso thupi lane lose.+
Nkhongono zane zikumara chifukwa cha mphuvya zane,
Viwangwa vyane vyalopwa.+
11 Nkhuhoyeka na wose awo ŵakupindikana nane,+
Chomenechomene na ŵazengezgani ŵane.
Ŵanyane ŵakutenthema nane.
Para ŵaniwona, ŵakunichimbira.+
12 Ŵaniwuskamo mu mitima yawo na kuniluwa, nga ni para nili kufwa.
Nili nga ntchiŵiya chakusweka.
13 Napulika mahumuhumu ghanandi ghaheni,
Wofi wanizingilizga.+
Para ŵawungana pamoza kwimikana nane,
Ŵakunozga chiŵembu kuti ŵatore umoyo wane.+
14 Kweni ine nkhuthemba imwe, A Yehova.+
Nkhuti: “Ndimwe Chiuta wane.”+
15 Mazuŵa ghane ghali mu woko linu.*
Nithaskani mu woko la ŵalwani ŵane na ku awo ŵakunitambuzga.+
16 Ngweluskirani chisko chinu pa muteŵeti winu.+
Niponoskani na lusungu* lwinu.
17 A Yehova, ningalengeskekanga chara para nkhuchema pa imwe.+
18 Milomo yitesi yichetamiskike,+
Milomo iyo mwakujituntha yikunena ŵarunji, pamoza na kujikuzga na miyuyuro.
20 Muŵabisenge ku udesi uko imwe muli+
Kuŵajoŵeska ku viŵembu vya ŵanthu.
Muŵabisenge mu chisakasa chinu
21 Yehova walumbike,
Pakuti wanilongora lusungu* lwake mu nthowa yakuzizwiska+ mu msumba wakuzingilizgika.+
22 Apo nkhafinyilizgika, nkhati:
“Nimalenge imwe mukuwona.”+
Kweni nkhati nalilira kwa imwe, mukapulika kuŵeya kwane kuti munovwire.+
