< Psalms 58 >

1 For the Chief Musician; [set to] Al-tashheth. [A Psalm] of David: Michtam. Do ye indeed in silence speak righteousness? do ye judge uprightly, O ye sons of men?
Kumutungamiri wokuimba namaimbiro okuti, “Musaparadza.” Pisarema raDhavhidhi. Rwiyo rweMikitami. Ko, imi vatongi munotaura mukururama here? Munotonga pakati pavanhu nokururamisira here?
2 Yea, in heart ye work wickedness; ye weigh out the violence of your hands in the earth.
Kwete, munofunga kusaruramisira mumwoyo menyu, uye maoko enyu anomanikidza panyika.
3 The wicked are estranged from the womb: they go astray as soon as they be born, speaking lies.
Kunyange kubvira pakuberekwa, vakaipa vanofamba mukutsauka; kubva mudumbu ramai, vakaipa uye vanoreva nhema.
4 Their poison is like the poison of a serpent: [they are] like the deaf adder that stoppeth her ear;
Uturu hwavo hwakaita souturu hwenyoka, vakafanana nemhakure yadzivira nzeve dzayo,
5 Which hearkeneth not to the voice of charmers, charming never so wisely.
isingateereri maimbiro enʼanga kunyange zvazvo achiimba nouchenjeri hukuru.
6 Break their teeth, O God, in their mouth: break out the great teeth of the young lions, O LORD.
Vhunai mazino mumiromo yavo, imi Mwari; bvisai, imi Jehovha, mazino marefu eshumba!
7 Let them melt away as water that runneth apace: when he aimeth his arrows, let them be as though they were cut off.
Ngavatsakatike semvura yapera kuerera; pavanowembura uta, miseve yavo ngaigomare.
8 [Let them be] as a snail which melteth and passeth away: [like] the untimely birth of a woman, that hath not seen the sun.
Vafanane nehozhwa inonyakatika painofamba, kufanana negavamwedzi, ngavarege kuona zuva.
9 Before your pots can feel the thorns, he shall take them away with a whirlwind, the green and the burning alike.
Hari dzenyu dzisati dzanzwa kupisa kweminzwa pamoto, ingava minyoro kana yakaoma, vakaipa vachakukurwa.
10 The righteous shall rejoice when he seeth the vengeance: he shall wash his feet in the blood of the wicked.
Vakarurama vachafara pavachatsivirwa, pavachashambidza tsoka dzavo muropa ravakaipa.
11 So that men shall say, Verily there is a reward for the righteous: verily there is a God that judgeth in the earth.
Ipapo vanhu vachati, “Zvirokwazvo vakarurama vachiri kungowana mubayiro; zvirokwazvo Mwari ariko anotonga nyika.”
