2 Samueri 22
1 Dhavhidhi akaimbira Jehovha mashoko orwiyo urwu paakarwirwa naJehovha kubva muruoko rwavavengi vake vose nomuruoko rwaSauro.
UDavida wahlabelela uThixo amazwi alelihubo lapho uThixo wamsindisa esandleni sezitha zakhe zonke lasesandleni sikaSawuli.
2 Akati: “Jehovha ndiye dombo rangu, nhare yangu uye mununuri wangu;
Wathi: “UThixo ulidwala lami, inqaba yami lomsindisi wami;
3 Mwari wangu ndiye dombo rangu, ndinovanda maari, nhoo yangu, norunyanga rworuponeso rwangu. Ndiye nhare yangu, utiziro hwangu nomuponesi wangu, munondiponesa pavanhu vanoita nechisimba.
uNkulunkulu wami ulidwala lami, lapho engiphephela khona, isihlangu sami lophondo lokusindiswa kwami. Uyinqaba yami, isiphephelo sami lomsindisi wami uyangisindisa ebantwini abalodlakela.
4 Ndinodana kuna Jehovha, iye anofanira kurumbidzwa, uye ndinoponeswa kubva kuvavengi vangu.
Ngakhuleka kuThixo ofanele ukudunyiswa, njalo ngikhululwe ezitheni zami.
5 “Mafungu orufu akandikomba; mvura zhinji yokuparadza yakandifukidza.
Amagagasi okufa angikhulela; lezikhukhula zokubhubhisa zangikhulela.
Izibopho zengcwaba zangithandela; imijibila yokufa yangijamela. (Sheol h7585)
7 Mukutambudzika kwangu ndakadana kuna Jehovha; ndakadanidzira kuna Mwari wangu. Akanzwa inzwi rangu ari mutemberi yake; kuchema kwangu kwakasvika munzeve dzake.
Ekukhathazekeni kwami ngakhuleka kuThixo; ngakhala kuNkulunkulu wami. Esethempelini lakhe walizwa ilizwi lami; ukukhala kwami kwafika ezindlebeni zakhe.
8 “Nyika yakadedera uye ikazungunuka, nheyo dzokudenga dzakadengenyeka; dzakadedera nokuti akanga atsamwa.
Umhlaba wagedezela wazamazama, izisekelo zamazulu zanyikinyeka; zagedezela ngoba wayethukuthele.
9 Utsi hwakakwira kubva mumhino dzake; moto unoparadza wakabuda mumuromo make, mazimbe anopisa akapfutamo.
Intuthu yalanquka emakhaleni akhe; umlilo ohangulayo waphuma emlonyeni wakhe, amalahle avuthayo alavuka ephuma kuwo.
10 Akakamura matenga akaburuka pasi; makore erima akanga ari pasi petsoka dzake.
Waqhekeza amazulu wehlela phansi; amayezi amnyama ayengaphansi kwezinyawo zakhe.
11 Akatasva makerubhi akabhururuka; akabhururuka mudenga denga pamapapiro emhepo.
Wagada amakherubhi waphapha; wantweza phezu kwamaphiko omoya.
12 Akaita kuti rima rimupoteredze setende, iwo makore matema emvura yokudenga.
Wenza umnyama isigubuzelo esimhanqileyo, amayezi ezulu amnyama asemkhathini.
13 Kubva pakupenya kwokuvapo kwake mabhananʼana emheni akapenya.
Phakathi kokukhazimula kobukhona bakhe, izikhatha zombane zalavuza khona.
14 Jehovha akatinhira ari kudenga; inzwi reWokumusoro-soro rakanzwikazve.
UThixo wakhwaza esezulwini; ilizwi loPhezukonke lanqenqetha.
15 Akapfura miseve akaparadzira vavengi, mabhananʼana emheni akavaparadza.
Waciba imitshoko wazihlakaza izitha, ngezikhatha zombane waziqothula.
16 Mipata yegungwa yakaiswa pachena uye nheyo dzenyika dzakabudiswa pachena nokutuka kwaJehovha, nokufema kwomweya wemhino dzake.
Izigodi zolwandle zambulwa lezisekelo zomhlaba zavezwa obala ekukhuzeni kukaThixo, ngomfutho wokuphefumula kwamakhala akhe.
17 “Akatambanudza ruoko ari kudenga akandibata; akandibudisa kubva pamvura yakadzika.
Welula isandla sakho usezulwini wangibamba wangihlenga enzikini yamanzi.
18 Akandinunura kubva pamuvengi wangu ane simba, kubva kuvavengi, vakanga vachindikurira pasimba.
Wangihlenga esitheni sami esilamandla, ezitheni zami ezazingigabhela ngamandla.
19 Vakandivinga muzuva renjodzi yangu, asi Jehovha akanga ari mutsigiri wangu.
Zangijamela mhla ngisebunzimeni, kodwa uThixo waba yinsika yami.
20 Akandibudisira kunzvimbo yakafarikana; akandinunura nokuti akanga achindifarira.
Wangikhupha wangibeka endaweni ebanzi; wangihlenga ngoba wayethokoza ngami.
21 “Jehovha akandiitira zviri maererano nokururama kwangu; maererano nokuchena kwamaoko angu, akandipa mubayiro.
UThixo ungenzele okulingene ukulunga kwami; wangivuza ngokufanele ukuhlanzeka kwezandla zami.
22 Nokuti ndakachengeta nzira dzaJehovha; handina kuita chakaipa ndichitsauka kubva kuna Mwari wangu.
Ngoba ngizigcinile izindlela zikaThixo; angenzanga okubi ngokufulathela uNkulunkulu wami.
23 Mirayiro yake yose iri pamberi pangu; handina kutsauka kubva pamitemo yake.
Yonke imithetho yakhe iphambi kwami; angizifulathelanga izimiso zakhe.
24 Ndakanga ndisina chandinopomerwa pamberi pake, uye ndakazvichengeta kuti ndirege kutadza.
Ngibe ngilokhu ngimsulwa phambi kwakhe njalo ngisixwayile isono.
25 Jehovha akandipa mubayiro maererano nokururama kwangu, maererano nokuchema kwangu pamberi pake.
UThixo ungivuze ngokufanele ukulunga kwami; ngokufanele ukuhlanzeka kwami phambi kwakhe.
26 “Kune vakatendeka munoratidza kutendeka kwenyu, kune vasina chavanopomerwa munoratidza kusapomerwa kwenyu,
Kwabathembekileyo lawe uthembekile, kwabamsulwa lawe umsulwa,
27 kune vakachena munozviratidza makachena, asi kune vasakarurama munozviratidza nehasha.
kwabahlanzekileyo uziveza uhlanzekile, kodwa kwabangaqondanga uziveza ukhaliphile.
28 Munoponesa vanozvininipisa, asi meso enyu ari pamusoro pavanozvikudza kuti muvaderedze.
Uyabasindisa abathobekileyo; kodwa amehlo akho akhangele abazigqajayo ukuba ubehlisele phansi.
29 Imi muri mwenje wangu, Jehovha; Jehovha anoshandura rima rangu kuti rive chiedza.
Uyisibane sami, Oh Thixo, uThixo uguqula ubumnyama bami bube yikukhanya.
30 Norubatsiro rwenyu ndinogona kuenda kundorwa neboka ravarwi; naMwari wangu ndinogona kukwira rusvingo.
Ngosizo lwakho ngingaphuma ngimelane lebutho lempi, ngoNkulunkulu wami ngingawukhwela umduli.
31 “Kana ari Mwari, nzira yake yakarurama kwazvo; shoko raJehovha harina charingapomerwa. Ndiye nhoo yavose vanovanda maari.
Izindlela zikaNkulunkulu uqobo lwakhe ziphelele; ilizwi likaThixo kalilasici. Ulihawu labo bonke abaphephela kuye.
32 Nokuti ndianiko Mwari kunze kwaJehovha? Uye ndianiko Dombo kunze kwaMwari wedu?
Ngoba ngubani uNkulunkulu ngaphandle kukaThixo? Njalo ngubani oliDwala ngaphandle kukaNkulunkulu wethu na?
33 NdiMwari anondishongedza nesimba uye anoruramisa nzira yangu.
NguNkulunkulu ongihlomisa amandla enze indlela yami iphelele.
34 Anoita tsoka dzangu kuti dzive setsoka dzenondo; anoita kuti ndigone kumira pakakwirira.
Wenza inyawo zami zibe njengezempala; ungenza ngime ezingqongweni.
35 Anodzidzisa maoko angu kurwa; maoko angu anowembura uta hwendarira.
Ufundisa izandla zami ukulwa impi, izingalo zami zingaligobisa idandili lethusi.
36 Munondipa nhoo yenyu yokukunda, munokotamira pasi kuti mundikurise.
Uyanginika isihlangu sakho sokunqoba; uyazehlisela phansi ukuze ungenze ngibe mkhulu.
37 Munotambanudza nzira pasi pangu, kuitira kuti zvitsitsinho zvangu zvirege kutsauka.
Uqhelisa indlela enginyathela kuyo, ukuze inqagala zami zingapheci.
38 “Ndakatevera vavengi vangu ndikavaparadza; handina kudzoka kusvikira vaparadzwa.
Ngaxotshana lezitha zami ngaziqothula; kangibuyanga ngingakazibhubhisi zonke.
39 Ndakavaparadza zvachose, uye havana kugona kumuka; vakawira pasi petsoka dzangu.
Ngaziqothula okupheleleyo, njalo zazingeke zisavuka; zawela ngaphansi kwezinyawo zami.
40 Makandishongedza nesimba rokurwa; makaita kuti vadzivisi vangu vakotame patsoka dzangu.
Wangihlomisa ngamandla okulwa impi; wenza abaxabana lami bakhothama ezinyaweni zami.
41 Makaita kuti vavengi vangu vatize pakurwa, uye ndakaparadza vavengi vangu.
Wenza izitha zami zafulathela zabaleka, njalo ngazibhubhisa izitha zami.
42 Vakachemera kubatsirwa, asi hakuna munhu akavaponesa, kunyange kuna Jehovha, asi haana kupindura.
Bakhala becela uncedo, kodwa wayengekho owayengabahlenga kuThixo, kodwa kaphendulanga.
43 Ndakavapwanya vakatsetseka seguruva renyika; ndakavatswa uye ndikavatsika sedope riri munzira dzomumusha.
Ngabatshaya bacholeka njengothuli lomhlabathi; ngabagxoba ngabanyathela njengodaka ezindleleni.
44 “Makandinunura kubva pakurwisa kwavanhu vangu; makandichengetedza somutungamiri wendudzi. Vanhu vandakanga ndisingazivi vava pasi pangu.
Ungikhulule ekuhlaselweni yilababantu; ungigcine ngiyinhloko yezizwe. Abantu engangingabazi sebebuswa yimi,
45 Uye vatorwa vanouya kwandiri vachidedera, pavanongondinzwa vanonditeerera.
abezizweni bayatshotshobala phambi kwami; bathi bengizwa nje ngendaba, bangilalele.
46 Vose vanoora mwoyo; vanouya vachidedera kubva panhare dzavo.
Bonke badelile; beza bethuthumela bevela ezinqabeni zabo.
47 “Jehovha mupenyu! Dombo rangu ngarirumbidzwe! Ngaakudzwe Mwari, iye Dombo, Muponesi wangu!
UThixo uyaphila! Alidunyiswe iDwala lami! Kaphakanyiswe uNkulunkulu wami, iDwala, uMsindisi wami!
48 Ndiye Mwari anonditsivira, anoisa ndudzi pasi pangu,
UnguNkulunkulu ongiphindiselelayo, obeka izizwe ngaphansi kwami,
49 anondisunungura kubva kuvavengi vangu. Imi makandikudza pamusoro pavavengi vangu; kubva kuvanhu vanoita nechisimba, makandinunura.
ongikhululayo ezitheni zami. Wena wangiphakamisela ngaphezu kwezitha zami; wangihlenga ebantwini bodlakela.
50 Naizvozvo ndichakurumbidzai, imi Jehovha, pakati pendudzi; ndicharumbidza zita renyu nenziyo.
Ngakho ngizakudumisa, Oh Thixo, phakathi kwezizwe; ngizahlabelela indumiso yebizo lakho.
51 “Iye anopa mambo wake kukunda kukuru; anoratidza unyoro hwake kumuzodziwa wake, kuna Dhavhidhi nezvizvarwa zvake nokusingaperi.”
Unika inkosi yakhe ukunqoba okukhulu; ubonakalisa umusa wakhe ongapheliyo kogcotshiweyo wakhe, kuDavida lenzalo yakhe kuze kube phakade.”
