Mapisarema 108
1 Rwiyo. Pisarema raDhavhidhi. Mwoyo wangu wakasimba, Mwari imi; ndichaimba uye ndichaimba zvakanaka nomwoyo wangu wose.
A Song, a Psalm of David. My heart is fixed, O God: I will sing, yea, I will sing psalms, even [with] my glory.
2 Muka iwe mutengeranwa nembira! Ndichamutsa mambakwedza.
Awake, lute and harp: I will wake the dawn.
3 Haiwa Jehovha ndichakurumbidzai pakati pendudzi; ndichaimba nezvenyu pakati pamarudzi. Kutendeka kwenyu kunosvika kumatenga.
I will give thee thanks among the peoples, O Jehovah; of thee will I sing psalms among the nations:
4 Nokuti rudo rwenyu rukuru, kupfuura kudenga denga;
For thy loving-kindness is great above the heavens, and thy truth is unto the clouds.
5 Kudzwai, imi Mwari, kumusoro kwokudenga, uye kurumbidzwa kwenyu ngakuve pamusoro penyika yose.
Be thou exalted above the heavens, O God, and thy glory above all the earth.
6 Tiponesei uye mutibatsire noruoko rwenyu rworudyi, kuti vamunoda varwirwe.
That thy beloved ones may be delivered: save with thy right hand, and answer me.
7 Mwari akataura ari panzvimbo yake tsvene achiti, “Pakukunda kwangu ndichaganhura Shekemu, uye ndigoyera Mupata weSukoti.
God hath spoken in his holiness: I will exult, I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.
8 Gireadhi ndeyangu, Manase ndowangu; Efuremu inguwani yangu, Judha itsvimbo yangu.
Gilead is mine, Manasseh is mine, and Ephraim is the strength of my head; Judah is my law-giver;
9 Moabhu ndiwo mudziyo wangu wokugezera, pamusoro paEdhomu ndichapotsera shangu dzangu; pamusoro paFiristia ndichapembera mukukunda.”
Moab is my wash-pot; upon Edom will I cast my sandal; over Philistia will I shout aloud.
10 Ndianiko achandiuyisa muguta rakakomberedzwa namasvingo? Ndianiko achanditungamirira kuEdhomu?
Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me unto Edom?
11 Ko, hamusimi here, imi Mwari, iyemi makatiramba uye mukasazobudazve kuenda nehondo dzedu?
[Wilt] not [thou], O God, who didst cast us off? and didst not go forth, O God, with our armies?
12 Tibatsirei pamuvengi wedu, nokuti rubatsiro rwomunhu haruna maturo.
Give us help from trouble; for vain is man's deliverance.
13 Tichapiwa kukunda naMwari, uye achatsika-tsika vavengi vedu.
Through God we shall do valiantly; and he it is that will tread down our adversaries.
