Psalms 41

1 For the Leader. A Psalm of David. Happy is he that considereth the poor; the LORD will deliver him in the day of evil.

Kumutungamiri wokuimba. Pisarema raDhavhidhi. Akaropafadzwa uyo ane hanya navasina simba; Jehovha anomurwira panguva dzokutambudzika.

2 The LORD preserve him, and keep him alive, let him be called happy in the land; and deliver not Thou him unto the greed of his enemies.

Jehovha achamudzivirira uye achachengetedza upenyu hwake; achamuropafadza panyika uye haangamuisi kuchido chavavengi vake.

3 The LORD support him upon the bed of illness; mayest Thou turn all his lying down in his sickness.

Jehovha achamuraramisa panhoo yake yourwere uye achamuponesa panhoo yake yourwere.

4 As for me, I said: 'O LORD, be gracious unto me; heal my soul; for I have sinned against Thee.'

Ini ndakati, “Haiwa Jehovha, ndinzwirei ngoni; ndiporesei, nokuti ndakakutadzirai.”

5 Mine enemies speak evil of me: 'When shall he die, and his name perish?'

Vavengi vangu vachindigodora vanoti, “Achafa riniko uye zita rake rigoparara?”

6 And if one come to see me, he speaketh falsehood; his heart gathereth iniquity to itself; when he goeth abroad, he speaketh of it.

Kana mumwe achiuya kuzondiona, anotaura zvenhema, mwoyo uchiunganidza makuhwa; ipapo anobuda ondozviparadzira kumwe.

7 All that hate me whisper together against me, against me do they devise my hurt:

Vavengi vangu vose vanoita zevezeve pamwe chete pamusoro pangu; vanondifungira zvakaipisisa, vachiti,

8 'An evil thing cleaveth fast unto him; and now that he lieth, he shall rise up no more.'

“Chirwere chakaipa chakamubata, haachambomukizve panzvimbo paakarara.”

9 Yea, mine own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, who did eat of my bread, hath lifted up his heel against me.

Kunyange neshamwari yangu yapedyo yandaivimba nayo, yandaigovana zvokudya nayo, yandisimudzira chitsitsinho chayo.

10 But Thou, O LORD, be gracious unto me, and raise me up, that I may requite them.

Asi imi, iyemi Jehovha, mune tsitsi neni, ndisimudzei, kuti ndivatsive.

11 By this I know that Thou delightest in me, that mine enemy doth not triumph over me.

Ndinoziva kuti munofadzwa neni, nokuti muvengi wangu haandikundi.

12 And as for me, Thou upholdest me because of mine integrity, and settest me before Thy face for ever.

Munonditsigira pakutendeka kwangu, uye munondiisa pamberi penyu nokusingaperi.

13 Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, from everlasting and to everlasting. Amen, and Amen.

Kurumbidzwa ngakuve kuna Jehovha, Mwari waIsraeri, kubva pakusingaperi kusvikira nokusingaperi.
