Mapisarema 135
1 Rumbidzai Jehovha. Rumbidzai zita raJehovha; murumbidzei, imi varanda vaJehovha,
Hallelujah. Praise ye the name of the LORD; give praise, O ye servants of the LORD,
2 imi munoshumira muimba yaJehovha, muvanze dzeimba yaMwari wedu.
Ye that stand in the house of the LORD, in the courts of the house of our God.
3 Rumbidzai Jehovha, nokuti Jehovha akanaka; imbirai zita rake nziyo dzokurumbidza, nokuti ndizvo zvakanaka.
Praise ye the LORD, for the LORD is good; sing praises unto His name, for it is pleasant.
4 Nokuti Jehovha akasarudza Jakobho kuti ave wake, naIsraeri kuti ave pfuma yake.
For the LORD hath chosen Jacob unto Himself, and Israel for His own treasure.
5 Ndinoziva kuti Jehovha mukuru, uye kuti Ishe wedu mukuru kupfuura vamwari vose.
For I know that the LORD is great, and that our Lord is above all gods.
6 Jehovha anoita zvose zvinomufadza, kudenga napasi, nomumakungwa napakadzika pose.
Whatsoever the LORD pleased, that hath He done, in heaven and in earth, in the seas and in all deeps;
7 Anoita kuti makore akwire kubva kumagumo enyika; anotumira mheni nemvura, uye anobudisa mhepo kubva mumatura ake.
Who causeth the vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth; He maketh lightnings for the rain; He bringeth forth the wind out of His treasuries.
8 Ndiye akaparadza matangwe eIjipiti, matangwe avanhu neemhuka.
Who smote the first-born of Egypt, both of man and beast.
9 Akatumira zviratidzo nezvishamiso zvake mukati mako, iwe Ijipiti, pamusoro paFaro navaranda vake vose.
He sent signs and wonders into the midst of thee, O Egypt, upon Pharaoh, and upon all his servants.
10 Akaparadza ndudzi dzakawanda uye akauraya madzimambo ane simba,
Who smote many nations, and slew mighty kings:
11 Sihoni mambo weAmori, Ogi mambo weBhashani namadzimambo ose eKenani,
Sihon king of the Amorites, and Og king of Bashan, and all the kingdoms of Canaan;
12 akapa nyika yavo kuti ive nhaka, nhaka yavanhu vake Israeri.
And gave their land for a heritage, a heritage unto Israel His people.
13 Haiwa Jehovha, zita renyu rinogara nokusingaperi, mukurumbira wenyu, imi Jehovha, kuzvizvarwa zvose.
O LORD, Thy name endureth for ever; thy memorial, O LORD, throughout all generations.
14 Nokuti Jehovha achapupurira vanhu vake uye achava nenyasha pamusoro pavaranda vake.
For the LORD will judge His people, and repent Himself for His servants.
15 Zvifananidzo zvendudzi isirivha negoridhe, zvakaitwa namaoko avanhu.
The idols of the nations are silver and gold, the work of men's hands.
16 Zvine miromo, asi hazvigoni kutaura, zvina meso, asi hazvigoni kuona;
They have mouths, but they speak not; eyes have they, but they see not;
17 nenzeve, asi hazvigoni kunzwa, uye hamuna kufema mumuromo mazvo.
They have ears, but they hear not; neither is there any breath in their mouths.
18 Vaya vanozviita vachafanana nazvo, saizvozvowo, naivo vanovimba nazvo.
They that make them shall be like unto them; yea, every one that trusteth in them.
19 Haiwa imi imba yaIsraeri, rumbidzai Jehovha; haiwa imba yaAroni, rumbidzai Jehovha;
O house of Israel, bless ye the LORD; O house of Aaron, bless ye the LORD;
20 Haiwa imi imba yaRevhi, rumbidzai Jehovha; imi vanomutya, rumbidzai Jehovha.
O house of Levi, bless ye the LORD; ye that fear the LORD, bless ye the LORD.
21 Jehovha ngaarumbidzwe kubva kuZioni, iye agere muJerusarema. Rumbidzai Jehovha.
Blessed be the LORD out of Zion, who dwelleth at Jerusalem. Hallelujah.
