< Psalms 4 >
1 Hear me when I call, O God of my righteousness: you have enlarged me when I was in distress; have mercy upon me, and hear my prayer.
Kumutungamiri wenziyo nemitengeranwa. Pisarema raDhavhidhi. Ndipindurei pandinodana kwamuri, imi Mwari wangu makarurama. Ndisunungurei pakutambudzika kwangu; ndinzwirei ngoni uye munzwe munyengetero wangu.
2 O all of you sons of men, how long will all of you turn my glory into shame? how long will all of you love vanity, and seek after leasing? (Selah)
Nhai imi vanhu, muchashandura kukudzwa kwangu kukava chinyadziso kusvikira riniko? Muchada kutsauswa nokutsvaka vamwari venhema kusvikira riniko? Sera
3 But know that the LORD has set apart him that is godly for himself: the LORD will hear when I call unto him.
Zivai kuti Jehovha akazvitsaurira vanomuda; Jehovha achandinzwa pandinodana kwaari.
4 Stand in awe, and sin not: commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still. (Selah)
Pakutsamwa kwenyu, regai kutadza; pamunenge muri pamibhedha yenyu, nzverai mwoyo yenyu uye munyarare. Sera
5 Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and put your trust in the LORD.
Ipai zvibayiro zvakarurama uye muvimbe naJehovha.
6 There be many that say, Who will show us any good? LORD, lift you up the light of your countenance upon us.
Vazhinji vanobvunza vachiti, “Ndianiko angatiratidza chakanaka?” Chiedza chechiso chenyu ngachipenye pamusoro pedu, imi Jehovha.
7 You have put gladness in my heart, more than in the time that their corn and their wine increased.
Makazadza mwoyo wangu nomufaro mukuru kupfuura zviyo zvavo newaini yavo itsva yakawanda.
8 I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for you, LORD, only make me dwell in safety.
Ndichavata pasi ndigokotsira norugare, nokuti imi moga, Jehovha, munoita kuti ndigare pakasimba.
