Salimo 57
Kwa mtsogoleri wa mayimbidwe. Potsata mayimbidwe a “Musawononge.” Ndakatulo ya Davide, pamene anathawa Sauli kupita ku phanga.
Mundichitire chifundo, Inu Mulungu mundichitire chifundo,
pakuti mwa Inu moyo wanga umathawiramo.
Ndidzathawira mu mthunzi wa mapiko anu
mpaka chiwonongeko chitapita.
 
Ine ndikufuwulira kwa Mulungu Wammwambamwamba,
kwa Mulungu amene amakwaniritsa cholinga chake pa ine.
Mulungu amanditumizira kuchokera kumwamba ndi kundipulumutsa,
kudzudzula iwo amene akundithamangitsa kwambiri.
Mulungu amatumiza chikondi chake ndi kukhulupirika kwake.
 
Ine ndili pakati pa mikango,
ndagona pakati pa zirombo zolusa;
anthu amene mano awo ndi milomo yawo ndi mivi,
malilime awo ndi malupanga akuthwa.
 
Mukwezekedwe Inu Mulungu, kuposa mayiko onse akumwamba;
mulole kuti ulemerero wanu ukhale pa dziko lonse lapansi.
 
Iwo anatchera mapazi anga ukonde
ndipo ndinawerama pansi mosautsidwa.
Anakumba dzenje mʼnjira yanga
koma agweramo okha mʼmenemo.
 
Mtima wanga ndi wokhazikika, Inu Mulungu
mtima wanga ndi wokhazikika.
Ndidzayimba nyimbo, nyimbo yake yamatamando.
Dzuka moyo wanga!
Dzukani zeze ndi pangwe!
Ndidzadzuka mʼbandakucha.
 
Ndidzakutamandani Ambuye, pakati pa mitundu ya anthu,
ndidzayimba za Inu pakati pa mayiko.
10 Pakuti chikondi chanu nʼchachikulu, kufikira ku mayiko akumwamba;
kukhulupirika kwanu kwafika ku mitambo.
 
11 Mukwezekedwe Inu Mulungu kuposa mayiko akumwamba,
mulole kuti ulemerero wanu ukhale pa dziko lonse lapansi.
