Psalms 119
1 ALEPH. Happy are they that are upright in the way, who walk in the law of the LORD.
Vakaropafadzwa avo vane nzira isina chaingapomerwa, vanofamba mumurayiro waJehovha.
2 Happy are they that keep His testimonies, that seek Him with the whole heart.
Vakaropafadzwa avo vanochengeta zvaakatema, vanomutsvaka nomwoyo wavo wose.
3 Yea, they do no unrighteousness; they walk in His ways.
Havaiti chinhu chakaipa; vanofamba munzira yake.
4 Thou hast ordained Thy precepts, that we should observe them diligently.
Imi makaisa zvirevo zvinofanira kuteererwa.
5 Oh that my ways were directed to observe Thy statutes!
Haiwa, dai nzira dzangu dzakasimba pakuteerera zvirevo zvenyu!
6 Then should I not be ashamed, when I have regard unto all Thy commandments.
Ipapo handaizonyadziswa pandinorangarira mirayiro yenyu.
7 I will give thanks unto Thee with uprightness of heart, when I learn Thy righteous ordinances.
Ndichakurumbidzai nomwoyo wakarurama, sezvo ndichidzidza mirayiro yenyu yakarurama.
8 I will observe Thy statutes; O forsake me not utterly.
Ndichateerera mitemo yenyu; regai kundirasa zvachose.
9 BETH. Wherewithal shall a young man keep his way pure? By taking heed thereto according to Thy word.
Ko, jaya ringanatsa nzira yaro nei? Nokurarama sezvinoreva shoko renyu.
10 With my whole heart have I sought Thee; O let me not err from Thy commandments.
Ndinokutsvakai nomwoyo wangu wose; musandirega ndichitsauka pamirayiro yenyu.
11 Thy word have I laid up in my heart, that I might not sin against Thee.
Shoko renyu ndakariviga mumwoyo mangu, kuti ndirege kukutadzirai.
12 Blessed art Thou, O LORD; teach me Thy statutes.
Imi munofanira kukudzwa, Jehovha; ndidzidzisei mitemo yenyu.
13 With my lips have I told all the ordinances of Thy mouth.
Nemiromo yangu ndichataurazve mirayiro yose inobva pamuromo wenyu.
14 I have rejoiced in the way of Thy testimonies, as much as in all riches.
Ndinofarira kutevera zvirevo zvenyu, somunhu anofarira pfuma huru.
15 I will meditate in Thy precepts, and have respect unto Thy ways.
Ndinofungisisa zvirevo zvenyu, uye ndinorangarira nzira dzenyu.
16 I will delight myself in Thy statutes; I will not forget Thy word.
Ndinofarira mitemo yenyu; handingakanganwi shoko renyu.
17 GIMEL. Deal bountifully with Thy servant that I may live, and I will observe Thy word.
Itirai muranda wenyu zvakanaka, ndigorarama; ndichateerera shoko renyu.
18 Open Thou mine eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of Thy law.
Ndisvinudzei meso angu kuti ndione. Zvinhu zvinoshamisa zviri pamurayiro wenyu.
19 I am a sojourner in the earth; hide not Thy commandments from me.
Ndiri mutorwa panyika; regai kundivanzira mirayiro yenyu.
20 My soul breaketh for the longing that it hath unto Thine ordinances at all times.
Mweya wangu wapedzwa nokushuva mitemo yenyu nguva dzose.
21 Thou hast rebuked the proud that are cursed, that do err from Thy commandments.
Munotsiura vanozvikudza, avo vakatukwa, uye vanotsauka kubva pamirayiro yenyu.
22 Take away from me reproach and contempt; for I have kept Thy testimonies.
Bvisai kwandiri kushorwa nokuzvidzwa, nokuti ndinochengeta zvirevo zvenyu.
23 Even though princes sit and talk against me, thy servant doth meditate in Thy statutes.
Kunyange vatongi vachigara pamwe chete vachindireva, muranda wenyu achafungisisa mitemo yenyu.
24 Yea, Thy testimonies are my delight, they are my counsellors.
Ndinofadzwa nezvirevo zvenyu; ndizvo zvinondipanga mazano.
25 DALETH. My soul cleaveth unto the dust; quicken Thou me according to Thy word.
Ndakaradzikwa pasi muguruva; chengetedzai upenyu hwangu sezvinoreva shoko renyu.
26 I told of my ways, and Thou didst answer me; teach me Thy statutes.
Ndakarevazve nzira dzangu imi mukandipindura; ndidzidzisei mitemo yenyu.
27 Make me to understand the way of Thy precepts, that I may talk of Thy wondrous works.
Itai kuti ndinzwisise zvirevo zvenyu; ipapo ndichafungisisa pamusoro pezvishamiso zvenyu.
28 My soul melteth away for heaviness; sustain me according unto Thy word.
Mweya wangu waziya nokusuwa; ndisimbisei sezvinoreva shoko renyu.
29 Remove from me the way of falsehood; and grant me Thy law graciously.
Ndibvisei panzira dzokunyengera; ndinzwirei nyasha kubudikidza nomurayiro wenyu.
30 I have chosen the way of faithfulness; Thine ordinances have I set before me.
Ndakasarudza nzira yechokwadi; ndakaisa mwoyo wangu pamurayiro wenyu.
31 I cleave unto Thy testimonies; O LORD, put me not to shame.
Haiwa Jehovha, ini ndichabatirira pazvirevo zvenyu; musandirega ndichinyadziswa.
32 I will run the way of Thy commandments, for Thou dost enlarge my heart.
Ndinomhanya munzira yomurayiro wenyu, nokuti makasunungura mwoyo wangu.
33 HE. Teach me, O LORD, the way of Thy statutes; and I will keep it at every step.
Ndidzidzisei, imi Jehovha, kutevera mitemo yenyu; ipapo ndichaichengeta kusvikira kumagumo.
34 Give me understanding, that I keep Thy law and observe it with my whole heart.
Ndipei kunzwisisa, ndigochengeta murayiro wenyu uye ndigouteerera nomwoyo wangu wose.
35 Make me to tread in the path of Thy commandments; for therein do I delight.
Nditungamirirei munzira yemirayiro yenyu, nokuti imomo ndinowana mufaro.
36 Incline my heart unto Thy testimonies, and not to covetousness.
Dzorerai mwoyo wangu pane zvamakatema kwete pakuchiva kwenyama.
37 Turn away mine eyes from beholding vanity, and quicken me in Thy ways.
Dzorai meso angu pazvinhu zvisina maturo; chengetedzai upenyu hwangu sezvinoreva shoko renyu.

Ndinoshuva zvirevo zvenyu sei! Chengetedzai upenyu hwangu mukururama kwenyu.
41 VAV. Let Thy mercies also come unto me, O LORD, even Thy salvation, according to Thy word;
Rudo rwenyu rusingaperi ngaruuye kwandiri, Jehovha, noruponeso rwenyu sezvamakavimbisa;
42 That I may have an answer for him that taunteth me; for I trust in Thy word.
ipapo ndichapindura vanondishora, nokuti ndinovimba neshoko renyu.
43 And take not the word of truth utterly out of my mouth; for I hope in Thine ordinances;
Regai kubvisa shoko rechokwadi pamuromo pangu, nokuti ndakaisa tariro yangu mumurayiro wenyu.
44 So shall I observe Thy law continually for ever and ever;
Ndichagara ndichiteerera murayiro wenyu, nokusingaperi-peri.
45 And I will walk at ease, for I have sought Thy precepts;
Ndichafamba-famba ndakasununguka, nokuti ndakatsvaka zvirevo zvenyu.
46 I will also speak of Thy testimonies before kings, and will not be ashamed.
Ndichataura zvamakatema pamberi pamadzimambo, uye handinganyadziswi,
47 And I will delight myself in Thy commandments, which I have loved.
nokuti ndinofarira mirayiro yenyu nokuti ndinoida.
48 I will lift up my hands also unto Thy commandments, which I have loved; and I will meditate in Thy statutes.
Ndinosimudzira maoko angu kumirayiro yenyu yandinoda, uye ndinofungisisa zvirevo zvenyu.
49 ZAIN. Remember the word unto Thy servant, because Thou hast made me to hope.
Rangarirai shoko renyu kumuranda wenyu, nokuti makandipa tariro.
50 This is my comfort in my affliction, that Thy word hath quickened me.
Zvinondinyaradza pakutambura kwangu ndezvizvi: Vimbiso yenyu inochengetedza upenyu hwangu.
51 The proud have had me greatly in derision; yet have I not turned aside from Thy law.
Vanozvikudza vanondiseka vasingaregi, asi ini handitsauki pamurayiro wenyu.
52 I have remembered Thine ordinances which are of old, O LORD, and have comforted myself.
Ndinorangarira mirayiro yenyu yekare, imi Jehovha, uye ndinonyaradzwa mairi.
53 Burning indignation hath taken hold upon me, because of the wicked that forsake Thy law.
Shungu dzinondibata nokuda kwavakaipa, vakasiya murayiro wenyu.
54 Thy statutes have been my songs in the house of my pilgrimage.
Mitemo yenyu ndiro dingindira rorwiyo rwangu pose pandinogara.
55 I have remembered Thy name, O LORD, in the night, and have observed Thy law.
Haiwa, Jehovha, ndinorangarira zita renyu usiku, uye ndichachengeta murayiro wenyu.
56 This I have had, that I have kept Thy precepts.
Aya ndiwo anga ari maitiro angu: Ndinoteerera zvirevo zvenyu.
57 HETH. My portion is the LORD, I have said that I would observe Thy words.
Haiwa, Jehovha, ndimi mugove wangu; ndakavimbisa kuteerera mashoko enyu.
58 I have entreated Thy favour with my whole heart; be gracious unto me according to Thy word.
Ndakatsvaka chiso chenyu nomwoyo wangu wose; ndinzwirei nyasha sezvamakavimbisa.
59 I considered my ways, and turned my feet unto Thy testimonies.
Ndakacherechedza nzira dzangu ndikadzorera tsoka dzangu kune zvamakatema.
60 I made haste, and delayed not, to observe Thy commandments.
Ndichakurumidza uye handinganonoki kuteerera mirayiro yenyu.
61 The bands of the wicked have enclosed me; but I have not forgotten Thy law.
Kunyange vakaipa vakandisunga namabote, handizokanganwi murayiro wenyu.
62 At midnight I will rise to give thanks unto Thee because of Thy righteous ordinances.
Ndinomuka pakati pousiku ndichikuvongai nokuda kwemirayiro yenyu yakarurama.
63 I am a companion of all them that fear Thee, and of them that observe Thy precepts.
Ndiri shamwari yavose vanokutyai, nokuna vose vanotevera zvirevo zvenyu.
64 The earth, O LORD, is full of Thy mercy; teach me Thy statutes.
Haiwa Jehovha, nyika izere norudo rwenyu, ndidzidzisei zvirevo zvenyu.
65 TETH. Thou hast dealt well with Thy servant, O LORD, according unto Thy word.
Makaitira muranda wenyu zvakanaka, imi Jehovha, sezvakafanira shoko renyu.
66 Teach me good discernment and knowledge; for I have believed Thy commandments.
Ndidzidzisei zivo nokutonga kwakanaka, nokuti ndakatenda mirayiro yenyu.
67 Before I was afflicted, I did err; but now I observe Thy word.
Pandakanga ndisati ndatambudzika, ndakatsauka, asi zvino ndinoteerera shoko renyu.
68 Thou art good, and doest good; teach me Thy statutes.
Imi makanaka, uye munoita zvakanaka; ndidzidzisei mitemo yenyu.
69 The proud have forged a lie against me; but I with my whole heart will keep Thy precepts.
Kunyange vanozvikudza vakandipomera nhema, ndinochengeta zvamakatema nomwoyo wangu wose.
70 Their heart is gross like fat; but I delight in Thy law.
Mwoyo yavo yakasindimara uye hainzwisisi, asi ndinofarira murayiro wenyu.
71 It is good for me that I have been afflicted, in order that I might learn Thy statutes.
Zvakanga zvakanaka kuti nditambudzike, kuitira kuti ndigodzidza mitemo yenyu.
72 The law of Thy mouth is better unto me than thousands of gold and silver.
Murayiro unobva pamuromo wenyu unokosha kwandiri, kupfuura zviuru zvezvimedu zvesirivha negoridhe.
73 JOD. Thy hands have made me and fashioned me; give me understanding, that I may learn Thy commandments.
Maoko enyu akandisika uye akandiumba; ndipei kunzwisisa kuti ndigodzidza mirayiro yenyu.
74 They that fear Thee shall see me and be glad, because I have hope in Thy word.
Avo vanokutyai ngavafare pavanondiona, nokuti ndakaisa tariro yangu pashoko renyu.
75 I know, O LORD, that Thy judgments are righteous, and that in faithfulness Thou hast afflicted me.
Haiwa Jehovha, ndinoziva kuti mirayiro yenyu yakarurama, uye kuti makanditambudza mukutendeka kwenyu.
76 Let, I pray Thee, Thy lovingkindness be ready to comfort me, according to Thy promise unto Thy servant.
Rudo rwenyu rusingaperi ngarutinyaradze, maererano nechivimbiso chenyu kumuranda wenyu.
77 Let Thy tender mercies come unto me, that I may live; for Thy law is my delight.
Tsitsi dzenyu ngadziuye kwandiri kuti ndirarame, nokuti murayiro wenyu ndiwo mufaro wangu.
78 Let the proud be put to shame, for they have distorted my cause with falsehood; but I will meditate in Thy precepts.
Vanozvikudza ngavanyadziswe pakundikanganisira ndisina mhaka, asi ini ndichafungisisa zvirevo zvenyu.
79 Let those that fear Thee return unto me, and they that know Thy testimonies.
Vanokutyai ngavadzokere kwandiri, ivo vanonzwisisa zvamakatema.
80 Let my heart be undivided in Thy statutes, in order that I may not be put to shame.
Mwoyo wangu ngaushaye chaungapomerwa pamitemo yenyu, kuti ndirege kunyadziswa.
81 CAPH. My soul pineth for Thy salvation; in Thy word do I hope.
Mweya wangu unoziya nokuda kwekushuva ruponeso rwenyu, asi ndakaisa tariro yangu pashoko renyu.
82 Mine eyes fail for Thy word, saying: 'When wilt Thou comfort me?'
Meso angu aneta nokutsvaga chivimbiso chenyu; ndinoti, “Muchandinyaradza riniko?”
83 For I am become like a wine-skin in the smoke; yet do I not forget Thy statutes.
Kunyange ndakaita sehomwe yewaini ndiri muutsi, handikanganwi mitemo yenyu.
84 How many are the days of Thy servant? When wilt Thou execute judgment on them that persecute me?
Muranda wenyu acharindira kusvikira riniko? Mucharanga vatambudzi vangu riniko?
85 The proud have digged pits for me, which is not according to Thy law.
Vanozvikudza vakandicherera makomba, zvinopesana nomurayiro wenyu.
86 All Thy commandments are faithful; they persecute me for nought; help Thou me.
Mirayiro yenyu yose yakavimbika, ndibatsirei, nokuti vanhu vanonditambudza ndisina mhaka.
87 They had almost consumed me upon earth; but as for me, I forsook not Thy precepts.
Vakanga voda kundibvisa panyika, asi handina kusiya zvamakatema.
88 Quicken me after Thy lovingkindness, and I will observe the testimony of Thy mouth.
Chengetedzai upenyu hwangu zvakafanira rudo rwenyu, uye ini ndichateerera zvirevo zvomuromo wenyu.
89 LAMED. For ever, O LORD, Thy word standeth fast in heaven.
Haiwa Jehovha, shoko renyu rinogara nokusingaperi; rinomira rakasimba kudenga denga.
90 Thy faithfulness is unto all generations; Thou hast established the earth, and it standeth.
Kutendeka kwenyu kunoramba kuripo kusvikira kuzvizvarwa zvose; makasimbisa nyika uye inogara nokusingaperi.
91 They stand this day according to Thine ordinances; for all things are Thy servants.
Mirayiro yenyu iripo kusvikira iye nhasi, nokuti zvinhu zvose zvinokushumirai.
92 Unless Thy law had been my delight, I should then have perished in mine affliction.
Dai murayiro wenyu wanga usiri mufaro wangu, ndingadai ndakafira mumatambudziko angu.
93 I will never forget Thy precepts; for with them Thou hast quickened me.
Handichazokanganwi zvamakatema, nokuti nazvo makachengetedza upenyu hwangu.
94 I am Thine, save me; for I have sought Thy precepts.
Ndiponesei, nokuti ndiri wenyu; ndakatsvaka zvamakatema.
95 The wicked have waited for me to destroy me; but I will consider Thy testimonies.
Vakaipa vakarindira kundiparadza, asi ini ndichafunga zvirevo zvenyu.
96 I have seen an end to every purpose; but Thy commandment is exceeding broad.
Ndinoona kuguma kwezvose zvakakwana, asi mirayiro yenyu haina magumo.
97 MEM. O how love I Thy law! It is my meditation all the day.
Haiwa, ndinoda murayiro wenyu sei! Ndinoufungisisa zuva rose.
98 Thy commandments make me wiser than mine enemies: for they are ever with me.
Mirayiro yenyu inoita kuti ndive akachenjera kupfuura vavengi vangu, nokuti inogara neni nguva dzose.
99 I have more understanding than all my teachers; for Thy testimonies are my (meditation)
Ndinonzwisisa zvakawanda kupfuura vadzidzisi vangu, nokuti ndinofungisisa pamusoro pezvamakatema.
100 I understand more than mine elders, because I have keep Thy precepts.
Ndinonzwisisa zvikuru kupfuura vakuru, nokuti ndinoteerera zvirevo zvenyu.
101 I have refrained my feet from every evil way, in order that I might observe Thy word.
Ndakadzora tsoka dzangu panzira dzose dzakaipa kuti nditeerere shoko renyu.
102 I have not turned aside from Thine ordinances; for Thou hast instructed me.
Handina kubva pamirayiro yenyu, nokuti imi pachenyu makandidzidzisa.
103 How sweet are Thy words unto my palate! yea, sweeter than honey to my mouth!
Mashoko enyu anotapira seiko pakuaravira, anotapira kukunda uchi mumukanwa mangu!
104 From Thy precepts I get understanding; therefore I hate every false way.
Ndinowana kunzwisisa kubva pazvirevo zvenyu; naizvozvo ndinovenga nzira dzose dzakaipa.
105 NUN. Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.
Shoko renyu ndiwo mwenje wetsoka dzangu, nechiedza chenzira yangu.
106 I have sworn, and have confirmed it, to observe Thy righteous ordinances.
Ndakaita mhiko ndikaisimbisa, kuti ndichatevera mirayiro yenyu yakarurama.
107 I am afflicted very much; quicken me, O LORD, according unto Thy word.
Ndakatambudzika kwazvo; chengetedzai upenyu hwangu, imi Jehovha, zvakafanira shoko renyu.
108 Accept, I beseech Thee, the freewill-offerings of my mouth, O LORD, and teach me Thine ordinances.
Haiwa Jehovha, gamuchirai henyu kurumbidza kwomuromo wangu, mugondidzidzisa mirayiro yenyu.
109 My soul is continually in my hand; yet have I not forgotten Thy law.
Kunyange ndichiramba ndakabata upenyu hwangu mumaoko angu, handizokanganwi murayiro wenyu.
110 The wicked have laid a snare for me; yet went I not astray from Thy precepts.
Vakaipa vakanditeya nomusungo, asi handina kutsauka pazvirevo zvenyu.
111 Thy testimonies have I taken as a heritage for ever; for they are the rejoicing of my heart.
Zvirevo zvenyu inhaka yangu nokusingaperi; ndizvo mufaro womwoyo wangu.
112 I have inclined my heart to perform Thy statutes, for ever, at every step.
Mwoyo wangu wakagarira kuchengeta zvirevo zvenyu, kusvikira kumagumo.
113 SAMECH. I hate them that are of a double mind; but Thy law do I love.
Ndinovenga vanhu vane mwoyo miviri, asi ndinoda murayiro wenyu.
114 Thou art my covert and my shield; in Thy word do I hope.
Imi muri utiziro hwangu nenhoo yangu; ndakaisa tariro yangu pashoko renyu.
115 Depart from me, ye evildoers; that I may keep the commandments of my God.
Ibvai kwandiri, imi vaiti vezvakaipa, kuti ndichengete mirayiro yaMwari wangu!
116 Uphold me according unto Thy word, that I may live; and put me not to shame in my hope.
Nditsigirei sezvamakavimbisa, ipapo ndichararama; musarega tariro yangu ichidzimwa.
117 Support Thou me, and I shall be saved; and I will occupy myself with Thy statutes continually.
Nditsigirei, ipapo ndicharwirwa; ndicharamba ndine hanya nemitemo yenyu.
118 Thou hast made light of all them that err from Thy statutes; for their deceit is vain.
Munoramba vose vanotsauka pamitemo yenyu, nokuti kunyengera kwavo hakuna maturo.
119 Thou puttest away all the wicked of the earth like dross; therefore I love Thy testimonies.
Vakaipa vose venyika munovaita sengura; naizvozvo ndinoda zvamakatema.
120 My flesh shuddereth for fear of Thee; and I am afraid of Thy judgments.
Nyama yangu inodedera nokuda kwokukutyai; ndinomira ndichitya mirayiro yenyu.
121 AIN. I have done justice and righteousness; leave me not to mine oppressors.
Ndakaita zvakarurama nokururamisira; musandisiya mumaoko avadzvinyiriri vangu.
122 Be surety for Thy servant for good; let not the proud oppress me.
Itai kuti muranda wenyu agare zvakanaka; musarega vanozvikudza vachimudzvinyirira.
123 Mine eyes fail for Thy salvation, and for Thy righteous word.
Meso angu aneta nokutsvaka ruponeso rwenyu, ndichitsvaga vimbiso yenyu yakarurama.
124 Deal with Thy servant according unto Thy mercy, and teach me Thy statutes.
Itirai muranda wenyu zvinoringana norudo rwenyu, uye ndidzidzisei mitemo yenyu.
125 I am Thy servant, give me understanding, that I may know Thy testimonies.
Ndiri muranda wenyu; ndipeiwo kunzvera kuti ndigonzwisisa zvamakatema.
126 It is time for the LORD to work; they have made void Thy law.
Haiwa Jehovha, inguva yenyu yokubata; murayiro wenyu uri kuputswa.
127 Therefore I love Thy commandments above gold, yea, above fine gold.
Nokuti ndinoda mirayiro yenyu kupfuura goridhe, kupfuura goridhe rakanatswa,
128 Therefore I esteem all Thy precepts concerning all things to be right; every false way I hate.
uye nokuti ndinoti zvirevo zvenyu zvose zvakarurama, ndinovenga nzira dzose dzakaipa.
129 PE. Thy testimonies are wonderful; therefore doth my soul keep them.
Zvirevo zvenyu zvinoshamisa; naizvozvo ndinozviteerera.
130 The opening of Thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple.
Kuzarurwa kweshoko renyu kunopa chiedza; kunopa kunzwisisa kuna vasina mano.
131 I opened wide my mouth, and panted; for I longed for Thy commandments.
Ndinoshamisa muromo wangu ndigodokwaira, ndichishuva mirayiro yenyu.
132 Turn Thee towards me, and be gracious unto me, as is Thy wont to do unto those that love Thy name.
Dzokerai kwandiri mugondinzwira ngoni, sezvamunogara muchiita kuna avo vanoda zita renyu.
133 Order my footsteps by Thy word; and let not any iniquity have dominion over me.
Rayirai nhambwe dzetsoka dzangu zviri maererano neshoko renyu; chivi ngachirege kunditonga.
134 Redeem me from the oppression of man, and I will observe Thy precepts.
Ndidzikinurei pakudzvinyirira kwavanhu, kuti ndigoteerera zvirevo zvenyu.
135 Make Thy face to shine upon Thy servant; and teach me Thy statutes.
Chiso chenyu ngachipenye pamusoro pomuranda wenyu, uye ndidzidzisei mitemo yenyu.
136 Mine eyes run down with rivers of water, because they observe not Thy law.
Hova dzemisodzi dzinoerera dzichibva mumeso angu, nokuti murayiro wenyu hausi kuteererwa.
137 TZADE. Righteous art Thou, O LORD, and upright are Thy judgments.
Haiwa Jehovha, imi makarurama, uye mirayiro yenyu yakarurama.
138 Thou hast commanded Thy testimonies in righteousness and exceeding faithfulness.
Zvirevo zvenyu zvamakadzika zvakarurama; zvakavimbika kwazvo.
139 My zeal hath undone me, because mine adversaries have forgotten Thy words.
Kushingaira kwangu kunondipedza, nokuti vavengi vangu havana hanya namashoko enyu.
140 Thy word is tried to the uttermost, and Thy servant loveth it.
Vimbiso dzenyu dzakaedzwa chose, uye muranda wenyu anodzida.
141 I am small and despised; yet have I not forgotten Thy precepts.
Kunyange ndakaderedzwa uye ndichizvidzwa hangu, handikanganwi zvirevo zvenyu.
142 Thy righteousness is an everlasting righteousness, and Thy law is the truth.
Kururama kwenyu kunogara nokusingaperi, uye murayiro wenyu ndowezvokwadi.
143 Trouble and anguish have overtaken me; yet Thy commandments are my delight.
Nhamo namatambudziko zviri pamusoro pangu, asi mirayiro yenyu ndiwo mufaro wangu.
144 Thy testimonies are righteous for ever; give me understanding, and I shall live.
Zvirevo zvenyu zvinogara zvakarurama; ndipeiwo kunzwisisa kuti ndirarame.
145 KOPH. I have called with my whole heart; answer me, O LORD; I will keep Thy statutes.
Ndinodana nomwoyo wangu wose; haiwa Jehovha ndipindureiwo, uye ndichateerera mitemo yenyu.
146 I have called Thee, save me, and I will observe Thy testimonies.
Ndinodanidzira kwamuri, ndiponesei uye ndichachengeta zvamakatema.
147 I rose early at dawn, and cried; I hoped in Thy word.
Ndinomuka mambakwedza asati asvika ndigochemera kubatsirwa; ndakaisa tariro yangu pashoko renyu.
148 Mine eyes forestalled the night-watches, that I might meditate in Thy word.
Meso angu anogara akasvinura panguva dzose dzousiku, kuti ndifungisise pamusoro pevimbiso dzenyu.
149 Hear my voice according unto Thy lovingkindness; quicken me, O LORD, as Thou art wont.
Inzwai inzwi rangu sezvakafanira rudo rwenyu; haiwa Jehovha, chengetedzai upenyu hwangu zviri maererano nemirayiro yenyu.
150 They draw nigh that follow after wickedness; they are far from Thy law.
Vanoita mano akaipa vari pedyo, asi vari kure nomurayiro wenyu.
151 Thou art nigh, O LORD; and all Thy commandments are truth.
Asi imi muri pedyo, Jehovha, uye mirayiro yenyu yose ndeyezvokwadi.
152 Of old have I known from Thy testimonies that Thou hast founded them for ever.
Ndakadzidza pane zvamakatema kare, kuti makazvisimbisa kuti zvigare nokusingaperi.
153 RESH. O see mine affliction, and rescue me; for I do not forget Thy law.
Tarirai kutambudzika kwangu mugondirwira, nokuti handina kukanganwa murayiro wenyu.
154 Plead Thou my cause, and redeem me; quicken me according to Thy word.
Miririrai mhosva yangu uye mundidzikinure; chengetedzai upenyu hwangu maererano nevimbiso yenyu.
155 Salvation is far from the wicked; for they seek not Thy statutes.
Ruponeso rwuri kure navakaipa, nokuti havatsvaki mitemo yenyu.
156 Great are Thy compassions, O LORD; quicken me as Thou art wont.
Haiwa Jehovha, tsitsi dzenyu ihuru; chengetedzai upenyu hwangu maererano nemirayiro yenyu.
157 Many are my persecutors and mine adversaries; yet have I not turned aside from Thy testimonies.
Vavengi vangu navanonditambudza vazhinji, asi handina kutsauka pane zvamakatema.
158 I beheld them that were faithless, and strove with them; because they observed not Thy word.
Ndinotarira kuna vasingatendi ndichisema, nokuti havateereri shoko renyu.
159 O see how I love Thy precepts; quicken me, O LORD, according to Thy lovingkindness.
Tarirai madiro andinoita zvirevo zvenyu; haiwa Jehovha, chengetedzai upenyu hwangu, maererano norudo rwenyu.
160 The beginning of Thy word is truth; and all Thy righteous ordinance endureth for ever.
Mashoko enyu ose ndeechokwadi; mirayiro yenyu yose yakarurama ndeyokusingaperi.
161 SCHIN. Princes have persecuted me without a cause; but my heart standeth in awe of Thy words.
Vatongi vanonditambudza ndisina mhaka, asi mwoyo wangu unodedera pashoko renyu.
162 I rejoice at Thy word, as one that findeth great spoil.
Ndinofarira vimbiso yenyu kufanana nouyo anowana zvakapambwa zvizhinji.
163 I hate and abhor falsehood; Thy law do I love.
Ndinovenga uye ndinosema nhema, asi ndinoda murayiro wenyu.
164 Seven times a day do I praise Thee, because of Thy righteous ordinances.
Ndinokurumbidzai kanomwe pazuva, nokuda kwemirayiro yenyu yakarurama.
165 Great peace have they that love Thy law; and there is no stumbling for them.
Vanoda murayiro wenyu vano rugare rukuru, uye hakuna chingavagumbusa.
166 I have hoped for Thy salvation, O LORD, and have done Thy commandments.
Haiwa Jehovha, ndakamirira ruponeso rwenyu, uye ndinotevera mirayiro yenyu.
167 My soul hath observed Thy testimonies; and I love them exceedingly.
Ndinoteerera zvirevo zvenyu, nokuti ndinozvida zvikuru.
168 I have observed Thy precepts and Thy testimonies; for all my ways are before Thee.
Ndinoteerera zvirevo zvenyu nezvamakatema, nokuti nzira dzangu dzose dzinozivikanwa nemi.
169 TAV. Let my cry come near before Thee, O LORD; give me understanding according to Thy word.
Dai kuchema kwangu kwasvika pamberi penyu, imi Jehovha; ndipeiwo kunzwisisa maererano neshoko renyu.
170 Let my supplication come before Thee; deliver me according to Thy word.
Kukumbira kwangu dai kwasvika pamberi penyu; ndirwirei maererano nevimbiso yenyu.
171 Let my lips utter praise: because Thou teachest me Thy statutes.
Miromo yangu dai yafashukira nerumbidzo, nokuti munondidzidzisa mitemo yenyu.
172 Let my tongue sing of Thy word; for all Thy commandments are righteousness.
Rurimi rwangu dai rwaimba nezveshoko renyu, nokuti mirayiro yenyu yose yakarurama.
173 Let Thy hand be ready to help me; for I have chosen Thy precepts.
Ruoko rwenyu dai rwagadzirira kundibatsira, nokuti ndakasarudza zvirevo zvenyu.
174 I have longed for Thy salvation, O LORD; and Thy law is my delight.
Haiwa Jehovha, ndinoshuva ruponeso rwenyu, uye murayiro wenyu ndiwo mufaro wangu.
175 Let my soul live, and it shall praise Thee; and let Thine ordinances help me.
Regai ndirarame kuti ndigokurumbidzai, uye dai mirayiro yenyu yandibatsira.
176 I have gone astray like a lost sheep; seek Thy servant; for I have not forgotten Thy commandments.
Ndakatsauka segwai rakarasika. Tsvakai muranda wenyu, nokuti handina kukanganwa mirayiro yenyu.
