< Mapisarema 13 >
1 Kumutungamiri wokuimba. Pisarema raDhavhidhi. Kusvikira riniko, nhai Jehovha? Muchandikanganwa nokusingaperi here? Muchasvika riniko makandivanzira chiso chenyu?
Yahweh, how long will you continue to forget about me [RHQ]? Will you hide yourself [SYN] from me forever?
2 Ndichaita mutsimba nepfungwa dzangu kusvikira riniko, uye ndine shungu mumwoyo mangu zuva rimwe nerimwe? Muvengi wangu achandikurira kusvikira riniko?
How long must I endure anguish/worry? Must I be miserable/sad every day? How long will my enemies continue to defeat me?
3 Tarirai kwandiri mugondipindura, imi Jehovha Mwari wangu. Vhenekerai meso angu, kana kuti ndichafa ndakarara;
Yahweh my God, look at me and answer me. Enable me to become strong [again] [IDM], and do not allow me to die.
4 muvengi wangu achati, “Ndamukurira ndamukunda,” uye vadzivisi vangu vachapembera kana ndawa.
Do not allow my enemies [to boast] saying, “We have defeated him!” Do not allow them to defeat me, with the result that they will rejoice about it!
5 Asi ini ndinovimba norudo rwenyu rusingaperi; mwoyo wangu unofarira ruponeso rwenyu.
But I trust that you will faithfully love me; I will rejoice when you rescue me.
6 Ndichaimbira Jehovha, nokuti akandinakira.
Yahweh, you have done many good things for me, so I will sing to you.
