Masalimo 40
Mawu a Mulungu mu Chichewa Chalero
Kwa mtsogoleri wa mayimbidwe. Salimo la Davide.
40 Mofatsa ndinadikira Yehova
Iye anatembenukira kwa ine ndipo anamva kulira kwanga.
2 Ananditulutsa mʼdzenje lachitayiko,
mʼthope ndi mʼchithaphwi;
Iye anakhazikitsa mapazi anga pa thanthwe
ndipo anandipatsa malo oyimapo olimba.
3 Iye anayika nyimbo yatsopano mʼkamwa mwanga,
nyimbo yamatamando kwa Mulungu wanga.
Ambiri adzaona,
nadzaopa ndipo adzakhulupirira Yehova.
4 Ndi wodala munthu
amakhulupirira Yehova;
amene sayembekezera kwa odzikuza,
kapena kwa amene amatembenukira kwa milungu yabodza.
5 Zambiri, Yehova Mulungu wanga,
ndi zodabwitsa zimene Inu mwachita.
Zinthu zimene munazikonzera ife
palibe amene angathe kukuwerengerani.
Nditati ndiyankhule ndi kufotokozera,
zidzakhala zambiri kuzifotokoza.
6 Nsembe ndi zopereka Inu simuzifuna,
koma makutu anga mwawatsekula;
zopereka zopsereza ndi zopereka chifukwa cha tchimo
Inu simunazipemphe.
7 Kotero ndinati, “Ndili pano, ndabwera.
Mʼbuku mwalembedwa za ine.
8 Ndikufuna kuchita chifuniro chanu, Inu Mulungu wanga;
lamulo lanu lili mu mtima mwanga.”
9 Ndikulalikira uthenga wa chilungamo chanu mu msonkhano waukulu;
sinditseka milomo yanga
monga mukudziwa Inu Yehova.
10 Sindibisa chilungamo chanu mu mtima mwanga;
ndinayankhula za kukhulupirika kwanu ndi chipulumutso chanu.
Ine sindiphimba chikondi chanu ndi choonadi chanu
pa msonkhano waukulu.
11 Musandichotsere chifundo chanu Yehova;
chikondi chanu ndi choonadi chanu zinditeteze nthawi zonse.
12 Pakuti mavuto osawerengeka andizungulira;
machimo anga andigonjetsa, ndipo sindingathe kuona.
Alipo ambiri kuposa tsitsi la mʼmutu mwanga,
ndipo mtima wanga ukufowoka mʼkati mwanga.
13 Pulumutseni Yehova;
Bwerani msanga Yehova kudzandithandiza.
14 Onse amene akufunafuna kuchotsa moyo wanga
achititsidwe manyazi ndi kusokonezedwa;
onse amene amakhumba chiwonongeko changa
abwezedwe mwamanyazi.
15 Iwo amene amanena kwa ine kuti, “Hee! Hee!”
abwerere akuchita manyazi.
16 Koma iwo amene amafunafuna Inu
akondwere ndi kusangalala mwa Inu;
iwo amene amakonda chipulumutso chanu
nthawi zonse anene kuti, “Yehova akwezeke!”
17 Komabe Ine ndine wosauka ndi wosowa;
Ambuye andiganizire.
Inu ndinu thandizo langa ndi wondiwombola wanga;
Inu Mulungu wanga, musachedwe.
Psalm 40
New International Version
Psalm 40
New International Version
Psalm 40[a](A)
For the director of music. Of David. A psalm.
1 I waited patiently(B) for the Lord;
he turned to me and heard my cry.(C)
2 He lifted me out of the slimy pit,(D)
out of the mud(E) and mire;(F)
he set my feet(G) on a rock(H)
and gave me a firm place to stand.
3 He put a new song(I) in my mouth,
a hymn of praise to our God.
Many will see and fear the Lord(J)
and put their trust(K) in him.
4 Blessed is the one(L)
who trusts in the Lord,(M)
who does not look to the proud,(N)
to those who turn aside to false gods.[b](O)
5 Many, Lord my God,
are the wonders(P) you have done,
the things you planned for us.
None can compare(Q) with you;
were I to speak and tell of your deeds,
they would be too many(R) to declare.
6 Sacrifice and offering you did not desire—(S)
but my ears you have opened[c]—(T)
burnt offerings(U) and sin offerings[d] you did not require.
7 Then I said, “Here I am, I have come—
it is written about me in the scroll.[e](V)
8 I desire to do your will,(W) my God;(X)
your law is within my heart.”(Y)
9 I proclaim your saving acts(Z) in the great assembly;(AA)
I do not seal my lips, Lord,
as you know.(AB)
10 I do not hide your righteousness in my heart;
I speak of your faithfulness(AC) and your saving help.
I do not conceal your love and your faithfulness
from the great assembly.(AD)
11 Do not withhold your mercy(AE) from me, Lord;
may your love(AF) and faithfulness(AG) always protect(AH) me.
12 For troubles(AI) without number surround me;
my sins have overtaken me, and I cannot see.(AJ)
They are more than the hairs of my head,(AK)
and my heart fails(AL) within me.
13 Be pleased to save me, Lord;
come quickly, Lord, to help me.(AM)
14 May all who want to take my life(AN)
be put to shame and confusion;(AO)
may all who desire my ruin(AP)
be turned back in disgrace.
15 May those who say to me, “Aha! Aha!”(AQ)
be appalled at their own shame.
16 But may all who seek you(AR)
rejoice and be glad(AS) in you;
may those who long for your saving help always say,
“The Lord is great!”(AT)
