Nyimbo Yotamanda ya Davide
7 Tsiku limeneli Davide anayamba nʼkusankha Asafu ndi anzake kuti ndiwo apereke nyimbo iyi ya matamando kwa Yehova:
8 Yamikani Yehova, itanani dzina lake;
lalikani za ntchito zake pakati pa mitundu ya anthu.
9 Imbirani Iye, muyimbireni nyimbo zamatamando;
nenani za ntchito zake zonse zodabwitsa.
10 Nyadirani dzina lake loyera;
ikondwere mitima ya iwo akufunafuna Yehova.
11 Dalirani Yehova ndi mphamvu zake;
funafunani nkhope yake nthawi zonse.
12 Kumbukirani ntchito zodabwitsa wazichita,
zozizwitsa zake, ndi kuweruza kwa mʼkamwa mwake,
13 inu zidzukulu za Israeli mtumiki wake,
inu ana a Yakobo, osankhidwa ake.
14 Iye ndiye Yehova Mulungu wathu;
chiweruzo chake chili pa dziko lonse lapansi.
15 Iye amakumbukira pangano lake nthawi zonse,
mawu amene Iye analamula, kwa mibado miyandamiyanda,
16 pangano limene anachita ndi Abrahamu,
lonjezo limene analumbira kwa Isake.
17 Iye analitsimikiza kwa Yakobo monga lamulo,
kwa Israeli monga pangano lamuyaya.
18 “Kwa iwe, ine ndidzapereka dziko la Kanaani
monga cholowa chimene udzachilandira.”
19 Ali anthu owerengeka,
ochepa ndithu, komanso alendo mʼdzikomo,
20 iwo anayendayenda kuchoka ku mtundu wina kupita ku mtundu wina,
ku ufumu wina kupita ku ufumu wina.
21 Iye sanalole munthu aliyense kuti awapondereze;
chifukwa cha iwo, Iye anadzudzula mafumu:
22 “Musakhudze odzozedwa anga;
musawachitire choyipa aneneri anga.”
23 Imbirani Yehova, dziko lonse lapansi;
lalikani za chipulumutso chake tsiku ndi tsiku.
24 Lengezani za ulemerero wake kwa mitundu yonse,
ntchito zake zonse zodabwitsa kwa anthu onse.
25 Pakuti Yehova ndi wamkulu ndi woyenera kwambiri kumutamanda;
Iyeyo ayenera kuopedwa kuposa milungu yonse.
26 Pakuti milungu yonse ya anthu a mitundu ina ndi mafano wopanda pake,
koma Yehova analenga kumwamba.
27 Ulemerero ndi ufumu zili pamaso pake;
mphamvu ndi chimwemwe zili pa malo pokhala Iye.
28 Perekani kwa Yehova, Inu mabanja a anthu a mitundu ina,
perekani kwa Yehova ulemerero ndi mphamvu,
29 perekani kwa Yehova ulemerero woyenera dzina lake.
Bweretsani chopereka ndipo mufike pamaso pake;
pembedzani Yehova mu ulemerero wachiyero chake.
30 Njenjemerani pamaso pake, dziko lonse lapansi!
Dziko linakhazikika kolimba; silingasunthidwe.
31 Zakumwamba zisangalale, dziko lapansi likondwere;
anene anthu a mitundu ina, “Yehova ndi mfumu!”
32 Nyanja ikokome, ndi zonse zili mʼmenemo;
minda ikondwere, ndi zonse zili mʼmenemo!
33 Ndipo mitengo ya mʼnkhalango idzayimba,
idzayimba chifukwa cha chimwemwe pamaso pa Yehova,
pakuti akubwera kudzaweruza dziko lapansi.
34 Yamikani Yehova, pakuti Iye ndi wabwino;
chikondi chake chikhala mpaka muyaya.
35 Fuwulani kuti, “Tipulumutseni, Inu Mulungu wa chipulumutso chathu,
mutisonkhanitse ndipo mutipulumutse kwa anthu a mitundu ina,
kuti tiyamike dzina lanu loyera,
kuti tikutamandeni.”
36 Atamandike Yehova Mulungu wa Israeli,
kuyambira muyaya mpaka muyaya.
Ndipo anthu onse anati, “Ameni” ndipo “Tikutamandani Yehova.”
37 Ndipo Davide anasiya Asafu pamodzi ndi anzake kumene kunali Bokosi la Chipangano la Yehova kuti azitumikira kumeneko nthawi zonse, monga mwa zoyenera kuchita pa tsiku lililonse. 38 Iye anasiyanso Obedi-Edomu pamodzi ndi anzake 68 kuti azitumikira nawo pamodzi.

Ana a Yedutuni anawayika kuti aziyangʼanira pa chipata.
