< Psalms 7 >

1 Shiggaion of David, which he sang unto the LORD, concerning Cush a Benjamite. O LORD my God, in Thee have I taken refuge; save me from all them that pursue me, and deliver me;
Rwiyo rwaDhavhidhi, rwaakaimbira Jehovha pamusoro paKushi, muBhenjamini. Haiwa Jehovha, Mwari wangu, ndinovanda mamuri; ndiponesei uye mundirwire pane vose vanondidzinganisa,
2 Lest he tear my soul like a lion, rending it in pieces, while there is none to deliver.
kuti varege kundibvambura seshumba nokundibvambura-bvambura pasina anondinunura.
3 O LORD my God, if I have done this; if there be iniquity in my hands;
Haiwa Jehovha, Mwari wangu, kana ndichinge ndakaita izvi uye ndine mhosva pamaoko angu,
4 If I have requited him that did evil unto me, or spoiled mine adversary unto emptiness;
kana ndakaita zvakaipa kuno uya akanga ane rugare neni kana kupamba muvengi wangu pasina mhaka,
5 Let the enemy pursue my soul, and overtake it, and tread my life down to the earth; yea, let him lay my glory in the dust. (Selah)
ipapo muvengi wangu ngaandidzinganise andibate; ngaatsike-tsike upenyu hwangu muvhu uye andivatise muguruva.
6 Arise, O LORD, in Thine anger, lift up Thyself in indignation against mine adversaries; yea, awake for me at the judgment which Thou hast commanded.
Simukai, imi Jehovha pakutsamwa kwenyu; simukai murwise hasha dzavavengi vangu. Simukai, Mwari wangu; rayirai kururamisira.
7 And let the congregation of the peoples compass Thee about, and over them return Thou on high.
Marudzi akaungana ngaaungane akakupoteredzai. Vatongei imi muri kumusoro;
8 O LORD, who ministerest judgment to the peoples, judge me, O LORD, according to my righteousness, and according to mine integrity that is in me.
Jehovha ngaatonge marudzi. Nditongei, imi Jehovha, zvakafanira kururama kwangu, zvakafanira kukwaniswa kwangu, imi Wokumusoro-soro.
9 Oh that a full measure of evil might come upon the wicked, and that Thou wouldest establish the righteous; for the righteous God trieth the heart and reins.
Haiwa, Mwari akarurama, iyemi munonzvera ndangariro nomwoyo, gumisai kuita nesimba kwavakaipa mugoita kuti vakarurama vagare zvakanaka.
10 My shield is with God, who saveth the upright in heart.
Nhoo yangu ndimi Mwari Wokumusoro-soro, iye anoponesa vane mwoyo yakarurama.
11 God is a righteous judge, yea, a God that hath indignation every day:
Mwari ndiye mutongi akarurama, iye Mwari anoratidza hasha dzake zuva nezuva.
12 If a man turn not, He will whet His sword, He hath bent His bow, and made it ready;
Kana munhu asingatendeuki, iye acharodza munondo wake; achakunga uta hwake agogadzirira.
13 He hath also prepared for him the weapons of death, yea, His arrows which He made sharp.
Agadzirira zvombo zvake zvinouraya; anozvigadzirira miseve yake inopisa.
14 Behold, he travaileth with iniquity; yea, he conceiveth mischief, and bringeth forth falsehood.
Iye ane mimba yezvakaipa akatakura mimba yokutambudzika achabereka nhema.
15 He hath digged a pit, and hollowed it, and is fallen into the ditch which he made.
Uyo anochera gomba, akaridzikisa achawira mugomba raachera.
16 His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violence shall come down upon his own pate.
Zvakashata zvake zvichadzokera pamusoro wake; uye kumanikidza kwake kuchauya pamusoro wake.
17 I will give thanks unto the LORD according to His righteousness; and will sing praise to the name of the LORD Most High.
Ndichatenda Jehovha nokuda kwokururama kwake, uye ndichaimbira zita raJehovha Wokumusoro-soro nziyo dzokurumbidza.
