Chilengedwe Chimalankhula

Kwa mtsogoleri wa oimba. Salmo la Davide.

Mboni ziwiri, zolumikizana pamodzi. Dzuwa ndi thambo zimalankhula popanda mawu mpaka kumalekezero a dziko lapansi; kenako malangizo a Atate wathu amalankhula momveka bwino, okoma kuposa uchi wa m'chisa. Atamva zonse ziwiri, wolemba masalimo akupempha kuti ayeretsedwe ku zolakwa zimene sangathe kuziona.

Chaputala 19.

Zakumwamba zimalalikira ulemerero wa Atate wathu; thambo limalengeza ntchito ya manja ake. Tsiku ndi tsiku zimatulutsa mau awo; usiku ndi usiku zimaonetsa nzeru. Palibe kuyankhula, palibe mau—mawu awo samamveka. Komabe mawu awo amapita pa dziko lonse lapansi, mau awo kufika ku malekezero a dziko. Kumwamba Iye wamanga chihema cha dzuwa, limene lili ngati mkwati wotuluka m'chipinda chake, ngati ngwazi yosangalala kuthamanga njira yake. Limatuluka kumbali ina ya kumwamba, ndipo kuzungulira kwake kumafika kumbali inayo; palibe chinthu chobisika ku kutentha kwake.

Lamulo la Atate wathu ndi langwiro, lotsitsimutsa moyo; umboni wa Atate wathu ndi wokhulupirika, wochititsa anthu opusa kukhala anzeru. Malangizo a Atate wathu ndi olungama, opatsa mtima chimwemwe; lamulo la Atate wathu ndi lowala, lounikira maso. Kuopa Atate wathu ndi koyera, kokhalabe ku nthawi zonse; maweruzo a Atate wathu ndi oona, ndi olungama kwathunthu. Ndi ofunika kuposa golide, kuposa ngakhale golide wabwino koposa; okoma kuposa uchi, kuposa uchi wochokera ku chisa. Zimachenjeza mtumiki wanu; kuzisunga kumabweretsa mphoto yaikulu.

Ndani angadziwe zolakwa zake? Ndiyeretseni ku zolakwa zanga zobisika. Mutetezenso mtumiki wanu ku machimo adala; asandilamulire ine. Pamenepo ndidzakhala wopanda chilema, wosalakwa ku kuwukira kwakukulu.

Mau a pakamwa panga ndi zolingalira za mtima wanga zikondweretse pamaso panu, Atate wanga, thanthwe langa ndi mpulumutsi wanga.
