< Psalms 2 >

1 Why do the heathen rage, And the nations meditate a vain thing?
Ndudzi dzinoitireiko bope? Uye vanhu vanofungireiko zvisina maturo?
2 Why do the kings of the earth rise up, And the princes combine together, Against Jehovah, and against his anointed king?
Madzimambo enyika azvigadzirira uye vabati vanoungana pamwe chete kuti vazorwa naJehovha, uye kuti vazorwisa Muzodziwa Wake.
3 “Let us break their bonds asunder; Let us cast away from us their fetters!”
Vanoti, “Ngatidamburei ngetani dzavo, tigorasa mabote avo.”
4 He that sitteth in heaven will laugh; The Lord will have them in derision.
Iye agere pachigaro choushe chokudenga anoseka; Ishe anovadadira.
5 Then shall he speak to them in his wrath, And confound them in his hot displeasure.
Ipapo anovatuka mukutsamwa kwake uye anovavhundutsa muhasha dzake, achiti,
6 “I myself have anointed my king, Upon Zion, my holy hill!”
“Ndakagadza Mambo wangu paZioni, gomo rangu dzvene.”
7 I will declare the decree of Jehovah: He hath said to me, “Thou art my son; This day I have begotten thee.
Ndichaparidza chirevo chaJehovha, ndichiti: Iye akati kwandiri, “Ndiwe Mwanakomana wangu; nhasi ndava Baba vako.
8 Ask of me, and I will give thee the nations for thine inheritance, And the ends of the earth for thy possession.
Kumbira kwandiri, uye ndichaita kuti ndudzi dzive nhaka yako, migumo yenyika ive yako.
9 Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; Thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel.”
Uchavatonga netsvimbo yesimbi; uchavaputsa kuita zvimedu zvimedu sehari.”
10 Be wise, therefore, O ye kings! Be admonished, ye rulers of the earth!
Naizvozvo, imi madzimambo, ngwarai; munyeverwe, imi vabati venyika.
11 Be subject to Jehovah with awe, And fear with trembling!
Shumirai Jehovha nokutya, uye mufare nokudedera.
12 Kiss the son, lest He be angry, and ye perish in your way; For soon shall his wrath be kindled. Happy are all they who seek refuge in him.
Tsvodai Mwanakomana, kuti arege kutsamwa mukazoparadzwa munzira yenyu, nokuti hasha dzake dzingakurumidza kumuka. Vakaropafadzwa vose vanovanda maari.
