Psalms 118
1 Give thanks to Yahweh, for he is good, for his loving kindness endures forever.
Vongai Jehovha, nokuti akanaka; rudo rwake runogara nokusingaperi.
2 Let Israel now say that his loving kindness endures forever.
Israeri ngaati, “Rudo rwake runogara nokusingaperi.”
3 Let the house of Aaron now say that his loving kindness endures forever.
Imba yaAroni ngaiti, “Rudo rwake runogara nokusingaperi.”
4 Now let those who fear Yahweh say that his loving kindness endures forever.
Avo vanotya Jehovha ngavati, “Rudo rwake runogara nokusingaperi.”
5 Out of my distress, I called on Yah. Yah answered me with freedom.
Mukurwadziwa kwangu ndakadana kuna Jehovha, uye akandipindura nokundisunungura.
6 Yahweh is on my side. I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?
Jehovha aneni; handingatyi. Munhu angandiiteiko?
7 Yahweh is on my side among those who help me. Therefore I will look in triumph at those who hate me.
Jehovha aneni; ndiye mubatsiri wangu. Ndichatarira vavengi vangu nokukunda.
8 It is better to take refuge in Yahweh, than to put confidence in man.
Zviri nani kutizira kuna Jehovha pano kuvimba nomunhu.
9 It is better to take refuge in Yahweh, than to put confidence in princes.
Zviri nani kutizira kuna Jehovha pano kuvimba namachinda.
10 All the nations surrounded me, but in Yahweh’s name I cut them off.
Ndudzi dzose dzakandikomba, asi ndakavaparadza muzita raJehovha.
11 They surrounded me, yes, they surrounded me. In Yahweh’s name I indeed cut them off.
Vakandikomba pamativi ose, asi ndakavaparadza muzita raJehovha.
12 They surrounded me like bees. They are quenched like the burning thorns. In Yahweh’s name I cut them off.
Vakandimomotera senyuchi, asi vakakurumidza kufa seminzwa inotsva, ndakavaparadza muzita raJehovha.
13 You pushed me back hard, to make me fall, but Yahweh helped me.
Ndakasundidzirwa shure uye ndikada kuwa, asi Jehovha akandibatsira.
14 Yah is my strength and song. He has become my salvation.
Jehovha ndiye simba rangu norwiyo rwangu; ndiye ava ruponeso rwangu.
15 The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tents of the righteous. “The right hand of Yahweh does valiantly.
Kupembera kwomufaro nokukunda kunonzwika mumatende avakarurama kuchiti: “Ruoko rworudyi rwaJehovha rwakaita zvinhu zvikuru!
16 The right hand of Yahweh is exalted! The right hand of Yahweh does valiantly!”
Ruoko rworudyi rwaJehovha rwakasimudzirwa kumusoro; ruoko rworudyi rwaJehovha rwakaita zvinhu zvikuru!”
17 I will not die, but live, and declare Yah’s works.
Handingafi asi ndichararama, uye ndichaparidza zvakaitwa naJehovha.
18 Yah has punished me severely, but he has not given me over to death.
Jehovha akandiranga kwazvo, asi haana kundiisa kurufu.
19 Open to me the gates of righteousness. I will enter into them. I will give thanks to Yah.
Ndizarurireiwo masuo okururama; ndichapinda ndigovonga Jehovha.
20 This is the gate of Yahweh; the righteous will enter into it.
Iri ndiro suo raJehovha panopinda navakarurama.
21 I will give thanks to you, for you have answered me, and have become my salvation.
Ndichakuvongai, nokuti makandipindura; makava ruponeso rwangu.
22 The stone which the builders rejected has become the cornerstone.
Dombo rakarambwa navavaki ndiro rakazova musoro wekona;
23 This is Yahweh’s doing. It is marvelous in our eyes.
Jehovha akaita izvi, uye zvinoshamisa pamberi pedu.
24 This is the day that Yahweh has made. We will rejoice and be glad in it!
Iri ndiro zuva rakaitwa naJehovha; ngatifarei kwazvo tifarisise mariri.
25 Save us now, we beg you, Yahweh! Yahweh, we beg you, send prosperity now.
Haiwa Jehovha, tiponesei; haiwa Jehovha, tipeiwo kubudirira.
26 Blessed is he who comes in Yahweh’s name! We have blessed you out of Yahweh’s house.
Akaropafadzwa uyo anouya muzita raJehovha. Tiri mumba maJehovha tinokuropafadzai.
27 Yahweh is God, and he has given us light. Bind the sacrifice with cords, even to the horns of the altar.
Jehovha ndiye Mwari, uye akaita kuti chiedza chake chivhenekere pamusoro pedu. Namatavi muruoko, pinda mumudungwe ubatane navamwe vari kuenda kunyanga dzearitari.
28 You are my God, and I will give thanks to you. You are my God, I will exalt you.
Imi muri Mwari wangu, uye ndichakuvongai; ndimi Mwari wangu, uye ndichakukudzai.
29 Oh give thanks to Yahweh, for he is good, for his loving kindness endures forever.
Vongai Jehovha, nokuti akanaka; rudo rwake runogara nokusingaperi.
