< Psalms 118 >
1 O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: because his mercy endures for ever.
Vongai Jehovha, nokuti akanaka; rudo rwake runogara nokusingaperi.
2 Let Israel now say, that his mercy endures for ever.
Israeri ngaati, “Rudo rwake runogara nokusingaperi.”
3 Let the house of Aaron now say, that his mercy endures for ever.
Imba yaAroni ngaiti, “Rudo rwake runogara nokusingaperi.”
4 Let them now that fear the LORD say, that his mercy endures for ever.
Avo vanotya Jehovha ngavati, “Rudo rwake runogara nokusingaperi.”
5 I called upon the LORD in distress: the LORD answered me, and set me in a large place.
Mukurwadziwa kwangu ndakadana kuna Jehovha, uye akandipindura nokundisunungura.
6 The LORD is on my side; I will not fear: what can man do unto me?
Jehovha aneni; handingatyi. Munhu angandiiteiko?
7 The LORD takes my part with them that help me: therefore shall I see my desire upon them that hate me.
Jehovha aneni; ndiye mubatsiri wangu. Ndichatarira vavengi vangu nokukunda.
8 It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man.
Zviri nani kutizira kuna Jehovha pano kuvimba nomunhu.
9 It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in princes.
Zviri nani kutizira kuna Jehovha pano kuvimba namachinda.
10 All nations compassed me about: but in the name of the LORD will I destroy them.
Ndudzi dzose dzakandikomba, asi ndakavaparadza muzita raJehovha.
11 They compassed me about; yea, they compassed me about: but in the name of the LORD I will destroy them.
Vakandikomba pamativi ose, asi ndakavaparadza muzita raJehovha.
12 They compassed me about like bees: they are quenched as the fire of thorns: for in the name of the LORD I will destroy them.
Vakandimomotera senyuchi, asi vakakurumidza kufa seminzwa inotsva, ndakavaparadza muzita raJehovha.
13 You have thrust sore at me that I might fall: but the LORD helped me.
Ndakasundidzirwa shure uye ndikada kuwa, asi Jehovha akandibatsira.
14 The LORD is my strength and song, and is become my salvation.
Jehovha ndiye simba rangu norwiyo rwangu; ndiye ava ruponeso rwangu.
15 The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tabernacles of the righteous: the right hand of the LORD does valiantly.
Kupembera kwomufaro nokukunda kunonzwika mumatende avakarurama kuchiti: “Ruoko rworudyi rwaJehovha rwakaita zvinhu zvikuru!
16 The right hand of the LORD is exalted: the right hand of the LORD does valiantly.
Ruoko rworudyi rwaJehovha rwakasimudzirwa kumusoro; ruoko rworudyi rwaJehovha rwakaita zvinhu zvikuru!”
17 I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the LORD.
Handingafi asi ndichararama, uye ndichaparidza zvakaitwa naJehovha.
18 The LORD has chastened me sore: but he has not given me over unto death.
Jehovha akandiranga kwazvo, asi haana kundiisa kurufu.
19 Open to me the gates of righteousness: I will go into them, and I will praise the LORD:
Ndizarurireiwo masuo okururama; ndichapinda ndigovonga Jehovha.
20 This gate of the LORD, into which the righteous shall enter.
Iri ndiro suo raJehovha panopinda navakarurama.
21 I will praise you: for you have heard me, and are become my salvation.
Ndichakuvongai, nokuti makandipindura; makava ruponeso rwangu.
22 The stone which the builders refused is become the head stone of the corner.
Dombo rakarambwa navavaki ndiro rakazova musoro wekona;
23 This is the LORD's doing; it is marvellous in our eyes.
Jehovha akaita izvi, uye zvinoshamisa pamberi pedu.
24 This is the day which the LORD has made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.
Iri ndiro zuva rakaitwa naJehovha; ngatifarei kwazvo tifarisise mariri.
25 Save now, I plead to you, O LORD: O LORD, I plead to you, send now prosperity.
Haiwa Jehovha, tiponesei; haiwa Jehovha, tipeiwo kubudirira.
26 Blessed be he that comes in the name of the LORD: we have blessed you out of the house of the LORD.
Akaropafadzwa uyo anouya muzita raJehovha. Tiri mumba maJehovha tinokuropafadzai.
27 God is the LORD, which has showed us light: bind the sacrifice with cords, even unto the horns of the altar.
Jehovha ndiye Mwari, uye akaita kuti chiedza chake chivhenekere pamusoro pedu. Namatavi muruoko, pinda mumudungwe ubatane navamwe vari kuenda kunyanga dzearitari.
28 You are my God, and I will praise you: you are my God, I will exalt you.
Imi muri Mwari wangu, uye ndichakuvongai; ndimi Mwari wangu, uye ndichakukudzai.
29 O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: for his mercy endures for ever.
Vongai Jehovha, nokuti akanaka; rudo rwake runogara nokusingaperi.
