Psalms 139
1 Yahweh, you have examined me, and you know [everything about] me.
Kumutungamiri wokuimba. Pisarema raDhavhidhi. Haiwa Jehovha, makandinzvera uye munondiziva.
2 You know when I sit down and when I stand up. [Even though you are] far away from me, you know what I am thinking.
Munoziva nguva yandinogara neyandinosimuka; munonzwisisa pfungwa dzangu muri kure.
3 When I travel and when I lie down, you know everything that I do.
Munonzvera kubuda kwangu nokuvata kwangu pasi; munoziva nzira dzangu dzose.
4 Yahweh, even before I say [MTY] anything, you know everything that I am going to say!
Shoko risati rava parurimi rwangu, tarirai, imi Jehovha, munoriziva rose.
5 You protect me on all sides; you put your hand on me [to protect me with your power] [MTY].
Munondikomberedza shure nemberi; makaisa ruoko rwenyu pamusoro pangu.
6 I am not able to understand that you know [everything about me]. That is too great for me to really understand.
Kuziva kwakadai kunondishamisa, kwakanyanya kukwirira zvokuti handingasvikiri.
7 (Where could I go to escape from your Spirit?/I could not go anywhere to escape from your Spirit.) [RHQ] (Where could I go to get away from you?/I could not go anywhere to get away from you.) [RHQ]
Ndingaendepiko kuti ndibve paMweya wenyu? Ndingatizirepiko kuti ndibve pamberi penyu?
8 If I went up to heaven, you would be there. If I lay down in the place where the dead people are, you would be there. (Sheol h7585)
Kana ndikakwira kumatenga, imi muriko; kana ndikawarira mubhedha wangu kwakadzika, imi muriko. (Sheol h7585)
9 If I had wings and flew very far east [MTY], or if I flew west and made a place to live [on an island] in the ocean,
Kana ndikasimuka namapapiro amambakwedza, kana ndikandogara kumagumo egungwa,
10 you would be there also, to lead me by your hand, and you would help me.
kunyange ipapo ruoko rwenyu runondisesedza, ruoko rwenyu rworudyi runondimbundikira.
11 I could request the darkness to hide me, or I could request the light around me to become darkness,
Kana ndikati, “Zvirokwazvo rima richandivanza, uye chiedza chinondikomberedza chichava usiku kwandiri,”
12 but even [if that happened], the darkness would not be darkness for you! For you, the night is [as bright] as the daytime is, because for you, daylight and darkness are (not different/the same).
kunyange rima haringavi rima kwamuri; usiku huchapenya samasikati, nokuti rima rakaita sechiedza kwamuri.
13 You created [all] the parts of my body; you put [the parts of] my body together when I was still in my mother’s womb.
Nokuti imi makasika zvomukatikati mangu; makandiruka ndiri mudumbu ramai vangu.
14 I praise you because you made my [body in a very] awesome and wonderful way. Everything that you do is amazing! I know that very well.
Ndinokurumbidzai nokuti ndakaitwa nomutoo unotyisa uye unoshamisa; mabasa enyu anoshamisa, ndinonyatsozviziva kwazvo.
15 When my body was being formed, while it was being put together where no one else could see it, you saw it!
Mapfupa angu akanga asina kuvanzika kwamuri, pandakanga ndaiswa munzvimbo yakavanda. Pandakarukwa ndiri pakadzika penyika,
16 You saw me before I was born. You wrote in your book the number of days that you had decided that I would live. You did that before any of those days had [even] started!
meso enyu akaona muviri usati waumbwa. Mazuva ose andakarongerwa akanga akanyorwa mubhuku renyu, rimwe rawo risati ravapo.
17 God, what you think about me is very precious (OR, is very hard to understand). There is a great number of things that you think about.
Mirangariro yenyu inokosha sei kwandiri, imi Mwari! Yakakura sei pakuverengwa kwayo!
18 If I could count them, [I would see that] they are more than the grains of sand [at the seashore]. And when I wake up, I am still with you [and I know that there are still more of your thoughts about me to count].
Dai ndaiverenga, ingadai yaikunda tsanga dzejecha pakuwanda. Pandinopepuka, ndinenge ndinemi.
19 God, I desire that you would kill all the wicked people! And I wish that violent [MTY] men would (leave/go away from) me.
Dai mukangouraya vakaipa, imi Mwari! Endai kure neni, imi vanhu vokuteura ropa!
20 They say wicked/malicious things about you; they slander your name.
Ivo vanotaura nemi nomurangariro wakaipa; vadzivisi venyu vanoshandisa zita renyu zvakaipa.
21 Yahweh, I certainly [RHQ] hate those who hate you! And I despise [RHQ] those who rebel against you.
Ko, ini handivengi vanokuvengai here, imi Jehovha, nokusema vaya vanokumukirai?
22 I hate them completely, and I consider that they are my enemies.
Handina chimwe chinhu asi kuvavenga ivo; ndinovati vavengi vangu.
23 God, search my inner being; find out what I am thinking!
Ndinzverei, imi Mwari, mugoziva mwoyo wangu; ndiedzei mugoziva kushuva kwendangariro dzangu.
24 Find out whether there is anything evil in my [inner being], and lead me along the road [that leads to my being with you] forever.
Muone kana musina nzira yakaipa mandiri, mugondifambisa munzira isingaperi.
