Psalms 101

1 A psalm of David. I will sing of your faithful love and good judgment. I will sing praises to you, Lord.

Pisarema raDhavhidhi. Ndichaimba nezvorudo rwenyu nokururamisira kwenyu; kwamuri, imi Jehovha, ndichaimba nziyo dzokurumbidza.

2 I will make sure my life is blameless. When will you come and help me? My life will be one of integrity even in private.

Ndichangwarira kurarama upenyu husina chahungapomerwa. Muchauya riniko kwandiri? Ndichafamba mumba mangu nomwoyo usina chaungapomerwa.

3 I will not look at anything evil. I hate doing wrong—I won't have anything to do with it.

Handingaisi chinhu chakaipa pamberi pangu. Ndinovenga mabasa avanhu vasingatendi; haanganamatiri kwandiri.

4 I won't think bad thoughts—I won't even consider anything evil.

Vanhu vane mwoyo yakatsauka vachava kure neni; handichazovi nechokuita nechakaipa.

5 I will silence anyone who secretly slanders their neighbor. I won't tolerate anyone who is proud and arrogant.

Ani naani anoitira muvakidzani wake makuhwa pakavanda, iyeye ndiye wandichaita kuti anyarare; ani naani ane meso anozvikudza nomwoyo unozvikudza, iyeye handingamuregi akadaro.

6 I look for faithful people to live with me; only those who are trustworthy will serve me.

Meso angu achava pamusoro pavakatendeka vari munyika, kuti vagare neni; iye ane mafambiro asina chaangapomerwa, achandishumira.

7 No one who is dishonest will live in my house; no liars will be allowed in my presence.

Hakuna munhu anonyengera achagara mumba mangu; hakuna munhu anotaura nhema achamira pamberi pangu.

8 I work every day to silence the wicked in the land, to rid the city of the Lord of all who do evil.

Mangwanani oga oga ndichaita kuti vakaipa vose vari panyika vanyarare; ndichauraya vaiti vezvakaipa vose, vabve muguta raJehovha.
