< Psalms 6 >

1 For the music director. To be accompanied by stringed instruments, according to the sheminith. A psalm of David. Lord, please don't condemn me because you're angry with me; please don't punish me because you're angry with me!
Kumutungamiri wokuimba nemitengeranwa. Nesheminiti. Pisarema raDhavhidhi. Haiwa Jehovha, regai kundirayira mukutsamwa kwenyu, kana kundiranga muhasha dzenyu.
2 Have mercy on me, Lord, for I am weak; heal me, Lord, for I am sick to the bone.
Ndinzwirei ngoni, Jehovha, nokuti ndava kuziya; haiwa Jehovha, ndiporesei, nokuti mapfupa angu ava kurwadza.
3 I'm shaking all over in fear. How long will it be, Lord, before you do something?
Mweya wangu uri kurwadziwa. Haiwa Jehovha, kusvikira riniko, kusvikira riniko?
4 Turn, Lord, and rescue me! Save me because of your trustworthy love!
Dzokai, imi Jehovha, mugondirwira; ndiponesei nokuda kworudo rwenyu rusingaperi.
5 For no one remembers you when they're dead. Who is able to praise you from the grave? (Sheol h7585)
Hakuna anokurangarirai kana afa. Ndiani anokurumbidzai kubva muguva? (Sheol h7585)
6 My groaning has exhausted me. Every night I soak my bed with my crying; I drench my couch with my tears.
Ndaneta nokugomera; ndinonyorovesa mubhedha wangu nemisodzi ndichichema usiku hwose, ndinonyorovesa uvato hwangu nemisodzi.
7 With all my crying I can hardly see; my eyes grow weak because of the trouble my enemies cause me.
Meso angu aneta nokuchema; haachaoni nokuda kwavavengi vangu vose.
8 Leave me alone, all you people who do evil, for the Lord has heard me crying!
Ibvai pandiri, imi mose munoita zvakaipa, nokuti Jehovha anzwa kuchema kwangu.
9 The Lord has heard me calling out for help; the Lord answers my prayer.
Jehovha anzwa kukumbira kwangu nyasha; Jehovha anogamuchira munyengetero wangu.
10 All who hate me will be shamefully defeated and terrified; they will run away in disgrace.
Vavengi vangu vose vachanyadziswa uye vachavhundutswa; vachadzokera shure pakarepo mukunyadziswa.
