< Mapisarema 112 >
1 Rumbidzai Jehovha. Akaropafadzwa munhu anotya Jehovha, anofarira mirayiro yake zvikuru.
Praise ye Yah! How happy is the man who revereth Yahweh, In his commandments, delighteth he greatly;
2 Vana vake vachava nesimba panyika; zvizvarwa zvavakarurama zvicharopafadzwa.
Mighty in the earth, shall be his seed, The generation of the upright, shall be blessed;
3 Pfuma nezvakawanda zviri mumba make, uye kururama kwake kunogara nokusingaperi.
Wealth and riches, shall be in his house, and, his righteousness, standeth for aye.
4 Kunyange murima akarurama anobudirwa nechiedza, iye munhu ane nyasha nengoni uye akarurama.
Risen—in darkness, is light to the upright, The gracious and compassionate and righteous.
5 Zvakanaka zvinouya kumunhu anopa zvizhinji uye anokweretesa pachena, anofambisa nzira dzake nokururamisira.
Well for a man showing favour and lending! He shall sustain his affairs with justice.
6 Zvirokwazvo, haangatongozungunuswi; munhu akarurama acharangarirwa nokusingaperi.
Surely, unto times age-abiding, shall he not be shaken, In remembrance, age-abiding, shall the righteous one remain;
7 Haangatyi mashoko akaipa; mwoyo wake wakasimba, anovimba naJehovha.
Of evil tidings, shall he not be afraid, Established is his heart, led to trust in Yahweh;
8 Mwoyo wake wakachengetedzeka, haangatyi chinhu; pakupedzisira achatarira nokukunda kuvavengi vake.
Upheld is his heart, he shall not be afraid, until that he gazeth on his foes.
9 Akaparadzira zvipo zvake kuvarombo, kururama kwake kunogara nokusingaperi; runyanga rwake ruchasimudzwa mudenga mukukudzwa.
He hath scattered abroad, he hath given to the needy, His righteousness, standeth for aye, His horn, shall be exalted in honour.
10 Akaipa achazviona uye acharwadziwa, acharumanya meno ake uye achaonda; kushuva kwowakaipa kuchava pasina.
The lawless one, shall see, and be indignant, his teeth, will he gnash and melt away, The craving of the lawless, shall vanish.
