Salimo 19
Kwa mtsogoleri wa mayimbidwe. Salimo la Davide.
1 Zakumwamba zimalengeza za ulemerero wa Mulungu;
thambo limalalikira ntchito za manja ake.
2 Tsiku ndi tsiku zimayankhula mawu ambiri,
usiku ndi usiku zimaonetsa poyera nzeru.
3 Palibe kuyankhula, palibe mawu aliwonse;
liwu lawo silimveka.
4 Koma uthenga wawo umapita pa dziko lonse lapansi,
mawuwo amafika mpaka
kumalekezero a dziko lapansi.
5 Dzuwa lili ngati mkwatibwi wobwera kuchokera ku nsanja yake,
ngati katswiri wokondwerera kuthamanga pa mpikisano.
6 Limatuluka kuyambira mbali ina ya thambo
ndi kuzungulira mpaka mbali inanso;
palibe chinthu chotha kupewa kutentha kwake.
7 Lamulo la Yehova ndi langwiro,
kutsitsimutsa moyo.
Maumboni a Yehova ndi odalirika,
amapereka nzeru kwa wopanda nzeru.
8 Malangizo a Yehova ndi olungama,
amapereka chimwemwe mu mtima.
Malamulo a Yehova ndi onyezimira,
amapereka kuwala.
9 Kuopa Yehova ndiye chinthu changwiro,
chimakhala mpaka muyaya.
Maweruzo a Yehova ndi owona
ndipo onse ndi olungama;
10 ndi a mtengowapatali kuposa golide,
kuposa golide weniweni;
ndi otsekemera kuposa uchi,
kuposa uchi wochokera pa chisa chake.
11 Mtumiki wanu amachenjezedwa nawo;
powasunga pali mphotho yayikulu.
12 Ndani angathe kudziwa zolakwa zake?
Mundikhululukire zolakwa zanga zobisika.
13 Muteteze mtumiki wanunso ku machimo ochita akudziwa;
iwo asandilamulire.
Kotero ndidzakhala wosalakwa,
wopanda mlandu wa tchimo lalikulu.
14 Mawu a mʼkamwa mwanga ndi zolingalira za mu mtima mwanga
zikhale zokondweretsa pamaso panu,
Inu Yehova, Thanthwe langa ndi Mpulumutsi wanga.
