Dzina Latsopano la Ziyoni
1Chifukwa chokonda Ziyoni sindidzakhala chete,
chifukwa chokonda Yerusalemu sindidzakhala chete,
mpaka chilungamo chake chitaoneka poyera ngati kuwala,
ndi chipulumutso chake chitaoneka ngati sakali yoyaka.
2Mitundu ya anthu idzaona iwe utapambana pa nkhondo
ndipo mafumu onse adzaona ulemerero wako.
Adzakuyitanira dzina latsopano
limene adzakupatse ndi Yehova.
3Udzakhala ngati chipewa chaulemerero mʼdzanja la Yehova,
ndi ngati nduwira yaufumu mʼdzanja la Mulungu wako.
4Sadzakutchanso “Wosiyidwa,”
ndipo dziko lako silidzatchedwanso “Chipululu.”
Koma dzina lako latsopano lidzakhala “Ndakondwera naye.”
Ndipo dziko lako lidzatchedwa “Wokwatiwa.”
Chifukwa Yehova akukondwera nawe,
ndipo adzakhala ngati mwamuna wa dziko lako.
5Monga mnyamata amakwatira namwali,
momwenso mmisiri wodzakumanga adzakukwatira;
monga mkwati amakondwera ndi mkwatibwi,
chonchonso Mulungu adzakondwera nawe.
6Iwe Yerusalemu, pa malinga ako ndayikapo alonda;
sadzakhala chete usana kapena usiku.
Inu amene mumakumbutsa Yehova za malonjezo ake
musapumule.
7Musamupatse mpata wopuma mpaka atakhazikitsa Yerusalemu
kukhala mzinda umene dziko lapansi lidzawutamande.
8Yehova analumbira atakweza dzanja lake.
Anati,
“Sindidzaperekanso tirigu wako
kuti akhale chakudya cha adani ako,
ndipo alendo sadzamwanso vinyo wako watsopano
pakuti unamuvutikira.
9Koma amene amakakolola ndiwo amene adzadye buledi
ndi kutamanda Yehova,
ndipo amene amasonkhanitsa pamodzi mphesa ndiwo amene adzamwe vinyo
mʼmabwalo a Nyumba yanga.”
10Tulukani, dutsani pa zipata!
Konzerani anthu njira.
Lambulani, lambulani msewu waukulu!
Chotsani miyala.
Kwezani mbendera kuti mitundu ya anthu izione.
11Yehova walengeza
ku dziko lonse lapansi kuti,
Awuzeni anthu a ku Yerusalemu kuti,
“Taonani, chipulumutso chanu chikubwera;
Yehova akubwera ndi mphotho yake
akubwera nazo zokuyenerani.”
12Iwo adzatchedwa Anthu Opatulika,
owomboledwa a Yehova;
ndipo adzakutchani “Okondwa a Yehova”
“Mzinda umene Yehova sanawusiye.”
