Psalms 99

1 The Lord reigns; let the nations tremble! He sits on his throne above the cherubim; let the earth shake!

Jehovha anobata ushe, ndudzi ngadzidedere; anogara pachigaro choushe chiri pakati pamakerubhi, nyika ngaizungunuke.

2 The Lord rules supreme in Zion, he is sovereign over all the nations.

Jehovha mukuru paZioni; iye akasimudzirwa pamusoro pendudzi dzose.

3 Let them praise his greatness, and respect him for who he is—for he is holy,

Ngavarumbidze zita renyu guru rinotyisa, iye mutsvene.

4 having kingly power. You love justice; you make impartial decisions. You have made sure everything is done in fairness and according to what's right.

Mambo mukuru, anoda kururamisira, imi makasimbisa kururama; muna Jakobho makaita kururamisira nokururama.

5 Give respect to the Lord our God! Bow down at his feet, for he is holy!

Kudzai Jehovha Mwari wedu nokunamata pachitsiko chetsoka dzake; iye mutsvene.

6 Moses and Aaron were among his priests; Samuel also prayed to him. They called out to the Lord for help, and he answered them.

Mozisi naAroni vakanga vari pakati pavaprista vake, Samueri akanga ari pakati paavo vaidana kuzita rake, vakadana kuna Jehovha akavapindura.

7 He spoke to the people from the pillar of cloud, and they kept the laws and decrees he gave them.

Akataura kwavari ari mushongwe yegore; vakachengeta zvaakatema nemitemo yaakavapa.

8 Lord our God, you answered them. You were a forgiving God to them, but you punished them when they did wrong.

Haiwa Jehovha Mwari wedu, imi makavapindura; makanga muri Mwari anokanganwira kuna Israeri, kunyange makavaranga pane zvavakaita.

9 Honor the Lord our God, and worship at his holy mountain. For the Lord our God is holy!

Kudzai Jehovha Mwari wedu mumunamate pagomo rake dzvene, nokuti Jehovha Mwari wedu ndiye mutsvene.
