1 Rwiyo rworwendo. Vanovimba naJehovha vakafanana neGomo reZioni, risingazungunuswi asi rinogara nokusingaperi.
A Canticle in steps. Those who trust in the Lord will be like the mountain of Zion. He will not be disturbed for eternity, who dwells
2 Sokupoteredzwa kwakaitwa Jerusarema namakomo, saizvozvo Jehovha anopoteredza vanhu vake kubva zvino nokusingaperi.
in Jerusalem. Mountains surround it. And the Lord surrounds his people, from this time forward and even forever.
3 Tsvimbo yavasakarurama haingagari pamusoro penyika yakagoverwa vakarurama, nokuti ipapo vakarurama vangazotambanudzira maoko avo kuita zvakaipa.
For the Lord will not allow the rod of sinners to remain over the lot of the just, so that the just may not extend their hands toward iniquity.
4 Haiwa Jehovha, itirai zvakanaka, kuna avo vakanaka, kuna avo vane mwoyo yakarurama.
Do good, O Lord, to the good and to the upright of heart.
5 Asi avo vanotsaukira kunzira dzakaminama, Jehovha achavaparadza pamwe chete navaiti vezvakaipa. Rugare ngaruve pana Israeri.
But those who turn away into obligation, the Lord will lead away with the workers of iniquity. Peace be upon Israel.
