Madandawulo a Yeremiya

7Inu Yehova, mwandinamiza, ndipo ndinapusadi;
Inu ndi wamphamvu kuposa ine ndipo munandipambana.
Anthu akundinyoza tsiku lonse.
Aliyense akundiseka kosalekeza.
8Nthawi iliyonse ndikamayankhula,
ndimafuwula kunena kuti, ziwawa kuno! Tikuwonongeka!
Mawu anu Yehova andisandutsa chinthu chonyozeka
ndipo ndimachitidwa chipongwe tsiku lonse.
9Koma ndikanena kuti, “Sindidzalalikiranso za Iye
kapena kuyankhulanso mʼdzina lake,”
mawu anu amayaka ngati moto mu mtima mwanga,
amakhaladi ngati moto wotsekeredwa mʼmafupa anga.
Ndapirira kusunga mawu anu mu mtima mwanga osawatulutsa,
koma sindingathe kupirirabe.
10Ndimamva anthu ambiri akunongʼona kuti,
“Zoopsa ku mbali zonse!
Kamunenezeni! Tiyeni tikamuneneze!”
Onse amene anali abwenzi anga
akuyembekezera kuti ndigwa pansi, akumanena kuti,
“Mwina mwake adzanyengedwa;
tidzamugwira
ndi kulipsira pa iye.”

11Koma Yehova ali nane, ndiye wankhondo wamphamvu.
Nʼchifukwa chake ondizunza adzalephera ndipo sadzandipambana.
Adzachita manyazi kwambiri chifukwa sadzapambana.
Manyazi awo sadzayiwalika konse.
12Inu Yehova Wamphamvuzonse, Inu amene mumayesa anthu molungama
ndipo mupenya za mu mtima mwa munthu.
Ndiloleni kuti ndione kuti mwalipsira adani anga
popeza ndapereka mlandu wanga kwa Inu.

13Imbirani Yehova!
Mutamandeni Yehova!
Iye amapulumutsa wosauka
mʼmanja mwa anthu oyipa.

14Litembereredwe tsiku limene ndinabadwa!
Tsiku limene amayi anga anandibereka lisatamandidwe!
15Wotembereredwa munthu amene anapita kukasangalatsa abambo anga
ndi uthenga woti:
“Kwabadwa mwana wamwamuna!”
16Munthu ameneyo akhale ngati mizinda imene
Yehova anayiwononga mopanda chisoni.
Amve mfuwu mmawa,
phokoso la nkhondo masana.
17Chifukwa sanandiphere mʼmimba,
kuti amayi anga asanduke manda anga,
mimba yawo ikhale yayikulu mpaka kalekale.
18Kodi ndinabadwira mavuto ndi chisoni
kuti moyo wanga
ukhale wamanyazi wokhawokha?
