Psalms 28
1 A psalm of David. To you, Yahweh, I cry out; my rock, do not ignore me. If you do not respond to me, I will join those who go down to the grave.
Pisarema raDhavhidhi. Ndinodana kwamuri, imi Jehovha Dombo rangu; musandinyararira. Nokuti kana mukaramba munyerere, ini ndichaita savaya vakaburukira kugomba.
2 Hear the sound of my pleading when I call for help from you, when I lift up my hands toward your most holy place!
Inzwai kuchemera ngoni kwangu, sezvo ndichichemera rubatsiro kwamuri, sezvo ndichisimudza maoko angu ndakatarira kuNzvimbo yenyu Tsvene-tsvene.
3 Do not drag me away with the wicked, those who do iniquity, who speak peace with their neighbors but have evil in their hearts.
Musandikwekweredzera kure pamwe chete navakaipa, naavo vanoita zvakaipa, vanotaura rugare navavakidzani vavo asi vakaviga zvakaipa mumwoyo yavo.
4 Give them what their deeds deserve and repay them what their wickedness demands, repay them for the work of their hands and render to them their due.
Vatsivei pamabasa avo napabasa ravo rakaipa, vatsivei pane zvakaitwa namaoko avo; mugodzosera pamusoro pavo zvakavafanira.
5 Because they do not understand the deeds of Yahweh or the work of his hands, he will tear them down and never rebuild them.
Sezvo vasina hanya namabasa aJehovha uye nezvakaitwa namaoko ake, achavaputsira pasi akasavavakazve.
6 Blessed be Yahweh because he has heard the sound of my pleading!
Jehovha ngaarumbidzwe, nokuti akanzwa kuchemera kwangu ngoni.
7 Yahweh is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and I am helped. Therefore my heart greatly rejoices, and I will praise him with singing.
Jehovha ndiye simba rangu nenhoo yangu; mwoyo wangu unovimba naye, uye ndinobatsirwa. Mwoyo wangu unokwakuka nomufaro uye ndichamuvonga nenziyo.
8 Yahweh is the strength of his people, and he is the saving refuge of his anointed one.
Jehovha ndiye simba ravanhu vake, nhare yoruponeso yomuzodziwa wake.
9 Save your people and bless your inheritance. Be their shepherd and carry them forever.
Ponesai vanhu venyu uye muropafadze nhaka yenyu; ivai mufudzi wavo uye muvatakure nokusingaperi.
