Psalms 36
1 For the music director. A psalm of David, servant of the Lord. Evil speaks to the wicked, deep down in their minds, for in their eyes they have no need to respect God.
Kumutungamiri wokuimba. Pisarema raDhavhidhi muranda waJehovha. Shoko riri mumwoyo mangu pamusoro pokutadza kweakaipa rinoti: Hakuna kutya Mwari pamberi pake.
2 In their own eyes they're so wonderful that they can't even see their sin and do something about it.
Pamaonero ake anozvirumbidza, nokuti anozvibata kumeso kwazvo pakuona kwake, zvokuti anotadza kuona kana kuvenga chivi chake.
3 Whatever they say is deceptive and deceitful. They no longer do anything wisely or for good.
Mashoko omuromo wake akaipa uye anonyengera; haachisiri munhu akachenjera kana anoita zvakanaka.
4 Even when they're lying in bed they think up evil schemes. They commit themselves to a way of life that is no good. They choose evil, and don't reject it.
Kunyange panhoo yake anofunga zvakaipa; anozvifambisa panzira yezvakaipa uye haarambi chakaipa.
5 Lord, your faithful love reaches to the heavens, your trustworthiness to the clouds.
Rudo rwenyu, imi Jehovha, runosvika kudenga denga, kutendeka kwenyu kunosvika kumakore.
6 Your goodness is like the highest mountains, your fairness is like the deepest oceans. Lord, you save both the people and the animals.
Kururama kwenyu kwakaita segomo guru guru, kururamisira kwenyu sepakadzika dzika. Haiwa Jehovha, imi munochengetedza zvose munhu nemhuka.
7 God, how priceless is your trustworthy love! Everyone can find protection under the shelter of your wings.
Haiwa rudo rwenyu rusingatongoperi runokosha sei! Vose vakuru navaduku pakati pavanhu vanovanda mumumvuri wamapapiro enyu.
8 They gain strength from the wonderful food you provide in your house; you give them drink from your refreshing river.
Vanogutswa nezvakawanda zvomumba menyu; munovanwisa kubva parwizi rwenyu runofadza.
9 You are the source of life; you are the light by which we see.
Nokuti kwamuri ndiko kune chitubu choupenyu; muchiedza chenyu tinoona chiedza.
10 Extend your trustworthy love to those who know you, and your goodness to those who truly live right.
Rambai muchiitira rudo kuna avo vanokuzivai, uye kururama kwenyu kuna vane mwoyo yakarurama.
11 Don't let the arrogant trample me down; don't let the wicked drive me out.
Rutsoka rwounozvikudza ngarurege kusvika kwandiri, kunyange ruoko rweakaipa ngarurege kundidzingira kure.
12 Now look! See how those who do evil have fallen—thrown down, unable to get up.
Tarirai vaiti vezvakaipa kuti vawa sei, vakandwa pasi, havagoni kumuka.
