Mapisarema 13

1 Kumutungamiri wokuimba. Pisarema raDhavhidhi. Kusvikira riniko, nhai Jehovha? Muchandikanganwa nokusingaperi here? Muchasvika riniko makandivanzira chiso chenyu?

HOW long wilt thou forget me, O Lord? for ever? how long wilt thou hide thy face from me?

2 Ndichaita mutsimba nepfungwa dzangu kusvikira riniko, uye ndine shungu mumwoyo mangu zuva rimwe nerimwe? Muvengi wangu achandikurira kusvikira riniko?

How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrow in my heart daily? how long shall mine enemy be exalted over me?

3 Tarirai kwandiri mugondipindura, imi Jehovha Mwari wangu. Vhenekerai meso angu, kana kuti ndichafa ndakarara;

Consider and hear me, O Lord my God: lighten mine eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death;

4 muvengi wangu achati, “Ndamukurira ndamukunda,” uye vadzivisi vangu vachapembera kana ndawa.

Lest mine enemy say, I have prevailed against him; and those that trouble me rejoice when I am moved.

5 Asi ini ndinovimba norudo rwenyu rusingaperi; mwoyo wangu unofarira ruponeso rwenyu.

But I have trusted in thy mercy; my heart shall rejoice in thy salvation.

6 Ndichaimbira Jehovha, nokuti akandinakira.

I will sing unto the Lord, because he hath dealt bountifully with me.
