< Psalms 10 >

1 Why, O LORD, do You stand far off? Why do You hide in times of trouble?
Munomirireiko kure, imi Jehovha? Munozvivanzireiko panguva yokutambudzika?
2 In pride the wicked pursue the needy; let them be caught in the schemes they devise.
Pakuzvikudza kwake munhu akaipa anovhima vasina simba, vanobatwa namano okufunga kwake.
3 For the wicked man boasts in the cravings of his heart; he blesses the greedy and reviles the LORD.
Anozvirumbidza pamusoro pezvinopangwa nomwoyo wake; anoropafadza vanokara uye anozvidza Jehovha.
4 In his pride the wicked man does not seek Him; in all his schemes there is no God.
Pakuzvikudza kwake akaipa haamutsvaki; mundangariro dzake dzose hamuna nzvimbo yaMwari.
5 He is secure in his ways at all times; Your lofty judgments are far from him; he sneers at all his foes.
Nzira dzake dzinobudirira nguva dzose; anozvikudza uye mirayiro yenyu iri kure naye; anodadira vavengi vake vose.
6 He says to himself, “I will not be moved; from age to age I am free of distress.”
Anoti pakufunga kwake, “Hakuna chichandizungunusa; ndichagara ndakafara uye handingatongotambudziki.”
7 His mouth is full of cursing, deceit, and violence; trouble and malice are under his tongue.
Muromo wake uzere nokutuka, kureva nhema, uye nokutyisidzira; matambudziko nezvakaipa zviri pasi porurimi rwake.
8 He lies in wait near the villages; in ambush he slays the innocent; his eyes watch in stealth for the helpless.
Anovandira ari pedyo nemisha; pakuvandira uku anouraya vasina mhosva, ari panzvimbo yakavanzika anotarira vaachaparadza.
9 He lies in wait like a lion in a thicket; he lurks to seize the oppressed; he catches the lowly in his net.
Anovandira seshumba iri panzvimbo yayo; anovandira kuti abate vasina anovabatsira; anobata vasina anobatsira uye anovakweva achienda navo mumumbure wake.
10 They are crushed and beaten down; the hapless fall prey to his strength.
Vabatwa vake anovapwanya, vanowa; vanowira pasi pesimba rake.
11 He says to himself, “God has forgotten; He hides His face and never sees.”
Anoti mumwoyo make, “Mwari akanganwa; akafukidza chiso chake uye haazoonizve.”
12 Arise, O LORD! Lift up Your hand, O God! Do not forget the helpless.
Simukai, imi Jehovha! Simudzai ruoko rwenyu, imi Mwari. Regai kukanganwa vanomanikidzwa.
13 Why has the wicked man renounced God? He says to himself, “You will never call me to account.”
Munhu akaipa anozvidzireiko Mwari? Seiko achiti mumwoyo make, “Haazondibvunzi?”
14 But You have regarded trouble and grief; You see to repay it by Your hand. The victim entrusts himself to You; You are the helper of the fatherless.
Asi imi, iyemi Mwari, munoona kutambudzika nokusuwa; munokutarisisa kuti mukupedze. Asina simba anozviisa kwamuri; muri mubatsiri wenherera.
15 Break the arm of the wicked and evildoer; call him to account for his wickedness until none is left to be found.
Vhunai ruoko rweakaipa nerwomunhu akaipa; ngaazvidavirire pazvakaipa zvake zvakanga zvisingazoonekwi.
16 The LORD is King forever and ever; the nations perish from His land.
Jehovha ndiye Mambo nokusingaperi-peri; ndudzi dzichaparara munyika yake.
17 You have heard, O LORD, the desire of the humble; You will strengthen their hearts. You will incline Your ear,
Munonzwa henyu, imi Jehovha, zvishuvo zvavanotambura; munovakurudzira, uye munoteerera kuchema kwavo,
18 to vindicate the fatherless and oppressed, that the men of the earth may strike terror no more.
muchiruramisira nherera nevakamanikidzwa, kuti munhu wenyika, arege kuramba achingovhundutsa.
