Wodziwika mu Yuda
Kwa mtsogoleri wa oimba: pa zoimba za zingwe. Salmo la Asafu, nyimbo.
Nkhondo yatha kale pamene salmo likuyamba. Ku Salemu mivi, zishango ndi malupanga zagona zitaphwanyika, ankhondo agona tulo, akavalo agona chizungulire. Mfundo si luso la Israeli koma kuti Atate wathu anauka kudzapulumutsa odzichepetsa a dziko lapansi.
76 1Atate wathu ndi wodziwika mu Yuda; mu Israeli dzina lake ndi lalikulu. 2Chihema chake chili mu Salemu, malo ake okhala ali mu Ziyoni. a a v2 Salemu ndi dzina lakale la Yerusalemu — mzinda umene Atate wathu anasankha kukhala. 3Kumeneko anaswa mivi yonyezimira, chishango ndi lupanga ndi zida za nkhondo.
4Inu ndinu owala, aulemu kuposa mapiri a zolanda. 5Ankhondo amphamvu kwambiri analandidwa zofunkha zawo; anagona tulo tawo; palibe wankhondo ngakhale mmodzi anatha kukweza manja ake. 6Pakudzudzula kwanu, Mulungu wa Yakobo, galeta ndi kavalo zonse zinagona zitakomoka. 7Inu, Inu ndinu woopsa! Ndani angathe kuima pamaso panu pamene mkwiyo wanu wauka? 8Kuchokera Kumwamba munalengeza chiweruzo; dziko lapansi linaopa nalikhala chete, 9pamene Atate wathu anauka kukaweruza, kupulumutsa onse odzichepetsa a dziko lapansi.
10Zoonadi mkwiyo wa anthu udzatamanda Inu, ndipo Inu mudzadziveka ndi zotsala zake. b b v10 Ngakhale ukali wa anthu wotsutsana ndi Mulungu umathera potamanda Iye — amavala ukali wawo ngati mphotho ya chigonjetso. 11Chitani malumbiro anu kwa Atate wanu ndipo muwakwaniritse; onse omuzungulira abweretse mphatso kwa Iye amene ayenera kuopedwa, 12amene amadula mzimu wa akalonga, amene amaopedwa ndi mafumu a dziko lapansi.
