Mapisarema 112

1 Rumbidzai Jehovha. Akaropafadzwa munhu anotya Jehovha, anofarira mirayiro yake zvikuru.

Let the Lord be praised. Happy is the man who gives honour to the Lord, and has great delight in his laws.

2 Vana vake vachava nesimba panyika; zvizvarwa zvavakarurama zvicharopafadzwa.

His seed will be strong on the earth; blessings will be on the generation of the upright.

3 Pfuma nezvakawanda zviri mumba make, uye kururama kwake kunogara nokusingaperi.

A store of wealth will be in his house, and his righteousness will be for ever.

4 Kunyange murima akarurama anobudirwa nechiedza, iye munhu ane nyasha nengoni uye akarurama.

For the upright there is a light shining in the dark; he is full of grace and pity.

5 Zvakanaka zvinouya kumunhu anopa zvizhinji uye anokweretesa pachena, anofambisa nzira dzake nokururamisira.

All is well for the man who is kind and gives freely to others; he will make good his cause when he is judged.

6 Zvirokwazvo, haangatongozungunuswi; munhu akarurama acharangarirwa nokusingaperi.

He will not ever be moved; the memory of the upright will be living for ever.

7 Haangatyi mashoko akaipa; mwoyo wake wakasimba, anovimba naJehovha.

He will have no fear of evil news; his heart is fixed, for his hope is in the Lord.

8 Mwoyo wake wakachengetedzeka, haangatyi chinhu; pakupedzisira achatarira nokukunda kuvavengi vake.

His heart is resting safely, he will have no fear, till he sees trouble come on his haters.

9 Akaparadzira zvipo zvake kuvarombo, kururama kwake kunogara nokusingaperi; runyanga rwake ruchasimudzwa mudenga mukukudzwa.

He has given with open hands to the poor; his righteousness is for ever; his horn will be lifted up with honour.

10 Akaipa achazviona uye acharwadziwa, acharumanya meno ake uye achaonda; kushuva kwowakaipa kuchava pasina.

The sinner will see it with grief; he will be wasted away with envy; the desire of the evil-doers will come to nothing.
