Masalimo 12
Mawu a Mulungu mu Chichewa Chalero
Kwa mtsogoleri wa mayimbidwe. Monga mwa mayimbidwe seminiti. Salimo la Davide.
12 Thandizeni Yehova pakuti palibe munthu wokhulupirika;
okhulupirika akusowa pakati pa anthu.
2 Aliyense amanamiza mʼbale wake;
ndi pakamwa pawo pabodza amayankhula zachinyengo.
3 Inu Yehova tsekani milomo yonse yachinyengo
ndi pakamwa paliponse podzikuza.
4 Pakamwa pamene pamati, “Ife tidzapambana ndi kuyankhula kwathu;
pakamwapa ndi pathupathu, tsono mbuye wathu ndani?”
5 “Chifukwa cha kuponderezedwa kwa anthu opanda mphamvu
ndi kubuwula kwa anthu osowa,
Ine ndidzauka tsopano,” akutero Yehova,
“Ndidzawateteza kwa owazunza.”
6 Ndipo mawu a Yehova ndi angwiro
monga siliva oyengedwa mʼngʼanjo yadothi,
oyengedwa kasanu nʼkawiri.
7 Inu Yehova mudzatitchinjiriza ndipo
mudzatiteteza kwa anthu otere kwamuyaya.
8 Oyipa amangoyendayenda ponseponse
anthu akamayamikira zochita zawo.
Psalm 12
New International Version
Psalm 12[a]
For the director of music. According to sheminith.[b] A psalm of David.
1 Help, Lord, for no one is faithful anymore;(A)
those who are loyal have vanished from the human race.
2 Everyone lies(B) to their neighbor;
they flatter with their lips
but harbor deception in their hearts.(C)
3 May the Lord silence all flattering lips(D)
and every boastful tongue—(E)
4 those who say,
“By our tongues we will prevail;(F)
our own lips will defend us—who is lord over us?”
