Psalms 97
1 Jehovah hath reigned, The earth is joyful, many isles rejoice.
Jehovha anobata ushe, nyika ngaifare; zviwi zviri kure ngazvifare.
2 Cloud and darkness [are] round about Him, Righteousness and judgment the basis of His throne.
Makore nerima guru zvakamukomberedza; kururama nokururamisira ndidzo nheyo dzechigaro chake choushe.
3 Fire before Him goeth, And burneth round about His adversaries.
Moto unoenda mberi kwake uchipisa vavengi vake kumativi ose.
4 Lightened have His lightnings the world, The earth hath seen, and is pained.
Mheni yake inovhenekera pasi; nyika inozviona igodedera.
5 Hills, like wax, melted before Jehovah, Before the Lord of all the earth.
Makomo anonyungudika senamo pamberi paJehovha, pamberi paIshe wenyika yose.
6 The heavens declared His righteousness, And all the peoples have seen His honour.
Kudenga denga kunoparidza kururama kwake, uye vanhu vose vanoona kubwinya kwake.
7 Ashamed are all servants of a graven image, Those boasting themselves in idols, Bow yourselves to him, all ye gods.
Vose vanonamata zvifananidzo vanonyadziswa, avo vanozvirumbidza nezvifananidzo, munamatei, imi vamwari vose!
8 Zion hath heard and rejoiceth, And daughters of Judah are joyful, Because of Thy judgments, O Jehovah.
Zioni rinonzwa rigofara uye misha yeJudha inofara nokuda kwezvamakatonga, imi Jehovha.
9 For Thou, Jehovah, [art] Most High over all the earth, Greatly Thou hast been exalted over all gods.
Nokuti imi, iyemi Jehovha, ndimi Wokumusoro-soro pasi pose; makasimudzirwa kupfuura vamwari vose.
10 Ye who love Jehovah, hate evil, He is keeping the souls of His saints, From the hand of the wicked he delivereth them.
Vanoda Jehovha ngavavenge zvakaipa, nokuti anorinda upenyu kwavanhu vake vakatendeka uye anovarwira muruoko rwowakaipa.
11 Light [is] sown for the righteous, And for the upright of heart — joy.
Chiedza chinovhenekera pamusoro pavakarurama, nomufaro pamusoro pavane mwoyo yakarurama.
12 Rejoice, ye righteous, in Jehovah, And give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness!
Farai muna Jehovha, imi vakarurama, uye mukudze zita rake dzvene.
