Psalms 48

1 A SONG. A PSALM OF THE SONS OF KORAH. Great [is] YHWH, and greatly praised, In the city of our God—His holy hill.

Rwiyo. Pisarema raVanakomana vaKora. Jehovha mukuru, uye anofanira kurumbidzwa kwazvo, muguta raMwari wedu, mugomo rake dzvene.

2 Beautiful [for] elevation, A joy of all the land, [is] Mount Zion, The sides of the north, the city of [the] great King.

Rakanaka pakukwirira kwaro, mufaro wenyika yose. Sokumusoro-soro kweZafoni, ndizvo zvakaita Gomo reZioni, guta raMambo Mukuru.

3 God is known for a tower in her high places.

Mwari ari munhare dzaro; akazviratidza kwariri kuti ndiye nharirire yaro.

4 For behold, the kings met, they passed by together,

Madzimambo akati abatanidza mauto, vakati vafamba pamwe chete kundorwa,

5 They have seen—so they have marveled, They have been troubled, they were hurried away.

vakariona vakashamiswa; vakatiza nokutya.

6 Trembling has seized them there, Pain, as of a travailing woman.

Vakabatwa nokudedera ipapo, nokurwadziwa sekwomukadzi osununguka.

7 By an east wind You shatter ships of Tarshish.

Makavaparadza sezvakaitwa zvikepe zveTashishi, zvakaputswa-putswa nemhepo yokumabvazuva.

8 As we have heard, so we have seen, In the city of YHWH of hosts, In the city of our God, God establishes her for all time. (Selah)

Sezvatakanzwa, ndizvo zvataona, muguta raJehovha Wamasimba Ose, muguta raMwari wedu: Mwari anorisimbisa nokusingaperi. Sera

9 We have thought, O God, of Your kindness, In the midst of Your temple,

Tiri mukati metemberi yenyu, imi Mwari, tinofungisisa nezvorudo rwenyu rusingaperi.

10 As [is] Your Name, O God, so [is] Your praise, Over the ends of the earth, Righteousness has filled Your right hand.

Sezvakaita zita renyu, imi Mwari, kurumbidzwa kwenyu kunosvika kumagumo enyika; ruoko rwenyu rworudyi ruzere nokururama.

11 Mount Zion rejoices, The daughters of Judah are joyful, For the sake of Your judgments.

Gomo reZioni rinofarisisa, misha yeJudha inofara nokuda kwokutonga kwenyu.

12 Surround Zion, and go around her, count her towers,

Famba-fambai muZioni, ripoteredzei, verengai shongwe dzaro,

13 Set your heart to her bulwark, Consider her high places, So that you recount to a later generation,

fungisisai zvakanaka nezvamasvingo aro, cherechedzai nhare dzaro, kuti mugotaura nezvazvo kuchizvarwa chinotevera.

14 That this God [is] our God—For all time and forever, He leads us over death!

Nokuti Mwari uyu ndiye Mwari wedu nokusingaperi-peri; iye achava muperekedzi wedu kusvikira kumagumo.
