< Psalms 71 >
1 In thee, O LORD, do I put my trust: let me never be put to confusion.
Ndinovanda mamuri, imi Jehovha; ngandirege kutongonyadziswa.
2 Deliver me in thy righteousness, and cause me to escape: incline thine ear unto me, and save me.
Ndinunurei uye mundirwire mukururama kwenyu; rerekerai nzeve yenyu kwandiri uye mundiponese.
3 Be thou my strong habitation, whereunto I may continually resort: thou hast given commandment to save me; for thou [art] my rock and my fortress.
Ivai bako rangu rokuvanda kwandingaramba ndichienda; rayirai kuti ndiponeswe, nokuti ndimi dombo rangu nenhare yangu.
4 Deliver me, O my God, out of the hand of the wicked, out of the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man.
Haiwa Mwari wangu, ndirwirei, paruoko rwowakaipa, pakubatwa navanhu vakaipa uye vane utsinye.
5 For thou [art] my hope, O Lord GOD: [thou art] my trust from my youth.
Nokuti muri tariro yangu, imi Ishe Jehovha, ndakavimba nemi kubva pauduku hwangu.
6 By thee have I been holden up from the womb: thou art he that took me out of my mother’s bowels: my praise [shall be] continually of thee.
Ndakazendamira pamuri kubva pakuberekwa kwangu; ndimi makandibudisa mudumbu ramai vangu. Ndicharamba ndichikurumbidzai.
7 I am as a wonder unto many; but thou [art] my strong refuge.
Ndava sechishamiso kuvazhinji, asi imi muri utiziro hwangu hwakasimba.
8 Let my mouth be filled [with] thy praise [and with] thy honour all the day.
Muromo wangu uzere nerumbidzo yenyu, ndinoparidza kubwinya kwenyu zuva rose.
9 Cast me not off in the time of old age; forsake me not when my strength faileth.
Regai kundirasa pandinenge ndakwegura; musandisiya kana simba rangu rapera.
10 For mine enemies speak against me; and they that lay wait for my soul take counsel together,
Nokuti vavengi vangu vanotaura zvakaipa pamusoro pangu; avo vakamirira kundiuraya vanorangana pamwe chete.
11 Saying, God hath forsaken him: persecute and take him; for [there is] none to deliver [him].
Vanoti, “Mwari amusiya; muteverei mumubate, nokuti hakuna achamununura.”
12 O God, be not far from me: O my God, make haste for my help.
Regai kuva kure neni, imi Mwari; uyai nokukurumidza, imi Mwari wangu, mundibatsire.
13 Let them be confounded [and] consumed that are adversaries to my soul; let them be covered [with] reproach and dishonour that seek my hurt.
Vapomeri vangu ngavaparare vanyadziswe; vaya vanoda kundikuvadza ngavafukidzwe nokusekwa nokunyadziswa.
14 But I will hope continually, and will yet praise thee more and more.
Asi kana ndirini, ndichagara ndine tariro; ndicharamba ndichikurumbidzai zvakanyanya.
15 My mouth shall shew forth thy righteousness [and] thy salvation all the day; for I know not the numbers [thereof].
Muromo wangu uchareva zvokururama kwenyu, nezvoruponeso rwenyu zuva rose, kunyange ndisingazivi chiyero charwo.
16 I will go in the strength of the Lord GOD: I will make mention of thy righteousness, [even] of thine only.
Ndichauya ndichiparidza mabasa enyu makuru, imi Ishe Jehovha; ndichaparidza kururama kwenyu, iyemi moga.
17 O God, thou hast taught me from my youth: and hitherto have I declared thy wondrous works.
Kubva pauduku hwangu, imi Mwari, makandidzidzisa, nanhasi uno ndinoparidza mabasa enyu anoshamisa.
18 Now also when I am old and grayheaded, O God, forsake me not; until I have shewed thy strength unto [this] generation, [and] thy power to every one [that] is to come.
Kunyange pandinenge ndakwegura uye bvudzi rachena, musandisiya, imi Mwari, kusvikira ndaparidza simba renyu kurudzi runotevera, nesimba renyu kuna vose vari kuzouya.
19 Thy righteousness also, O God, [is] very high, who hast done great things: O God, who [is] like unto thee!
Kururama kwenyu kunosvika kudenga kumusoro, imi Mwari, iyemi makaita zvinhu zvikuru. Haiwa Mwari, ndiani akafanana nemi?
20 [Thou], which hast shewed me great and sore troubles, shalt quicken me again, and shalt bring me up again from the depths of the earth.
Kunyange imi makandiratidza matambudziko mazhinji uye anorwadza, muchadzosa upenyu hwangu zvakare; kubva kwakadzika kwepasi muchandibudisazve.
21 Thou shalt increase my greatness, and comfort me on every side.
Muchawedzera kukudzwa kwangu, uye muchandinyaradzazve.
22 I will also praise thee with the psaltery, [even] thy truth, O my God: unto thee will I sing with the harp, O thou Holy One of Israel.
Ndichakurumbidzai nembira nokuda kwokutendeka kwenyu, imi Mwari wangu; ndichakurumbidzai nenziyo nomutengeranwa, imi Mutsvene woga waIsraeri.
23 My lips shall greatly rejoice when I sing unto thee; and my soul, which thou hast redeemed.
Miromo yangu ichadanidzira nomufaro pandinokurumbidzai nenziyo, iyeni, wamakadzikinura.
24 My tongue also shall talk of thy righteousness all the day long: for they are confounded, for they are brought unto shame, that seek my hurt.
Rurimi rwangu ruchataura nezvamabasa enyu akarurama zuva rose, nokuti avo vaida kundikuvadza vanyadziswa uye vakanganiswa.
