Psalm 64
English Standard Version
Hide Me from the Wicked
To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David.
64 Hear my voice, O God, in my (A)complaint;
preserve my life from dread of the enemy.
2 Hide me from (B)the secret plots of the wicked,
from the throng of evildoers,
3 who (C)whet their tongues like swords,
who (D)aim bitter words like arrows,
4 shooting from (E)ambush at the blameless,
shooting at him suddenly and (F)without fear.
5 They (G)hold fast to their evil purpose;
they talk of (H)laying snares secretly,
thinking, (I)“Who can see them?”
6 They search out injustice,
saying, “We have accomplished a diligent search.”
For (J)the inward mind and heart of a man are deep.
Masalimo 64
Mawu a Mulungu mu Chichewa Chalero
Kwa mtsogoleri wa mayimbidwe. Salimo la Davide.
64 Ndimvereni Mulungu pomwe ndikunena madandawulo anga;
tetezani moyo wanga ku chiopsezo cha mdani.
2 Ndibiseni ku chiwembu cha anthu oyipa,
ku gulu laphokoso la anthu ochita zoyipa.
3 Iwo amanola malilime awo ngati malupanga,
amaponya mawu awo olasa ngati mivi.
4 Iwo amaponya mivi yawo ali pa malo wobisala kwa munthu wosalakwa;
amamulasa modzidzimutsa ndi mopanda mantha.
5 Iwo amalimbikitsana wina ndi mnzake pa chikonzero chawo choyipa,
amayankhula zobisa misampha yawo;
ndipo amati, “Adzayiona ndani?”
6 Iwo amakonzekera zosalungama ndipo amati,
“Takonza ndondomeko yabwino kwambiri!”
Ndithu maganizo ndi mtima wa munthu ndi zachinyengo.
7 Koma Mulungu adzawalasa ndi mivi;
mwadzidzidzi adzakanthidwa.
8 Iye adzatembenuza milomo yawoyo kuwatsutsa
ndi kuwasandutsa bwinja;
onse amene adzawaona adzagwedeza mitu yawo mowanyoza.
9 Anthu onse adzachita mantha;
adzalengeza ntchito za Mulungu
ndi kulingalira mozama zomwe Iye wazichita.
10 Lolani wolungama akondwere mwa Yehova
ndi kubisala mwa Iye,
owongoka mtima onse atamande Iye!
