Psalms 90
1 A Prayer by Moses, the Man of God. Lord! a dwelling-place, hast, thou, become to us, From generation to generation:
Munyengetero waMozisi munhu waMwari. Jehovha, imi makava ugaro hwedu kuzvizvarwa zvose.
2 Before, the mountains, were born, Or thou hadst brought forth the earth and the world, Even, from age to age, thou, [wast] GOD.
Makomo asati azvarwa uye musati mabudisa nyika nepasi rose, kubva pakusingaperi kusvikira pakusingaperi muri Mwari.
3 Thou causest man to return unto dust, And hast said—Return, ye sons of Adam!
Munodzosera vanhu kuguruva zvakare, muchiti, “Dzokerai kuguruva, imi vanakomana vavanhu.”
4 For, a thousand years, in thine eyes, [are], As yesterday, in that it passed away, Or [as] a watch in the night.
Nokuti pamberi penyu makore chiuru akangofanana nezuva richangopfuura, kana senguva yokurinda usiku.
5 Thou hast snatched them away, A sleep, do they become, In the morning, [they are] like grass that shooteth up,
Munokukura vanhu pakuvata kworufu; vakaita sebundo idzva ramangwanani,
6 In the morning, it sprouteth and shooteth up, By the evening, it is cut down and withered.
kunyange richimera riri idzva mangwanani, nenguva yamadekwana rinenge raoma uye rasvava.
7 For we are consumed in thine anger, And, in thy wrath, are we dismayed;
Tapera nokutsamwa kwenyu uye tinovhundutswa nehasha dzenyu.
8 Thou hast set, Our iniquities before thee, Our secret near the luminary of thy face.
Makaisa zvakaipa zvedu pamberi penyu, makaisa zvivi zvedu zvakavanzika muchiedza chokuvapo kwenyu.
9 For, all our days, decline in thy wrath, —We end our years like a sigh.
Mazuva edu ose anopfuura napasi pehasha dzenyu; tinopedza makore edu nokuchema.
10 The days of our years, have, in them, three score years and ten, And, if, by reason of strength, they have fourscore years, Yet, their boast, is labour and sorrow, For it hath passed quickly, and we have flown away.
Uwandu hwamazuva edu hunosvika makore makumi manomwe, kana makumi masere, kana tiine simba; kunyange zvakadaro uwandu hwawo hunongova nhamo nokusuwa, nokuti anokurumidza kupfuura, uye isu tobhururuka toenda.
11 Who knoweth the strength of thine anger? Even, according to the fear of thee, is thy wrath!
Ndianiko anoziva simba rokutsamwa kwenyu? Nokuti hasha dzenyu dzakakura sokutyiwa kwakakufanirai imi.
12 How to number our days, so grant us to know, That we may win us a heart that hath wisdom.
Tidzidzisei kuverenga mazuva edu zvakanaka, kuti tiwane mwoyo wouchenjeri.
13 Return, Yahweh, oh how long? And have compassion upon thy servants;
Dzokai, imi Jehovha! Zvichadaro kusvikira riniko? Ivai netsitsi pamusoro pavaranda venyu.
14 Satisfy us, in the morning, with thy lovingkindness, That we may shout aloud and be glad, Throughout all our days.
Tigutsei mangwanani norudo rwenyu rusingaperi, kuti tigoimba nomufaro tigofara mazuva edu ose.
15 Make us glad, according to, The days thou hast humbled us, The years we have seen misfortune:
Tifadzei zvinoenzana namazuva amakatitambudza, samakore mazhinji atakaona nhamo.
16 Let thy work, appear unto thy servants, And, thy majesty, upon their children;
Mabasa enyu ngaaratidzwe kuvaranda venyu, nokubwinya kwenyu kuvana vavo.
17 And let the delightfulness of Adonay our God be upon us, —And, the work of our hands, establish thou upon us, Yea, the work of our hands, establish thou it.
Nyasha dzaIshe Mwari wedu ngadzive pamusoro pedu; tisimbisirei mabasa amaoko edu, hongu, simbisai basa ramaoko edu.
