Mapisarema 139
1 Kumutungamiri wokuimba. Pisarema raDhavhidhi. Haiwa Jehovha, makandinzvera uye munondiziva.
For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David. LORD, you have searched me, and you know me.
2 Munoziva nguva yandinogara neyandinosimuka; munonzwisisa pfungwa dzangu muri kure.
You know my sitting down and my rising up. You perceive my thoughts from afar.
3 Munonzvera kubuda kwangu nokuvata kwangu pasi; munoziva nzira dzangu dzose.
You search out my path and my lying down, and are acquainted with all my ways.
4 Shoko risati rava parurimi rwangu, tarirai, imi Jehovha, munoriziva rose.
For there is not a word on my tongue, but behold, LORD, you know it altogether.
5 Munondikomberedza shure nemberi; makaisa ruoko rwenyu pamusoro pangu.
You hem me in behind and before. You laid your hand on me.
6 Kuziva kwakadai kunondishamisa, kwakanyanya kukwirira zvokuti handingasvikiri.
This knowledge is beyond me. It’s lofty. I cannot attain it.
7 Ndingaendepiko kuti ndibve paMweya wenyu? Ndingatizirepiko kuti ndibve pamberi penyu?
Where could I go from your Spirit? Or where could I flee from your presence?
8 Kana ndikakwira kumatenga, imi muriko; kana ndikawarira mubhedha wangu kwakadzika, imi muriko. (Sheol h7585)
If I ascend up into heaven, you are there. If I make my bed in Sheol (Sheol h7585), behold, you are there!
9 Kana ndikasimuka namapapiro amambakwedza, kana ndikandogara kumagumo egungwa,
If I take the wings of the dawn, and settle in the uttermost parts of the sea,
10 kunyange ipapo ruoko rwenyu runondisesedza, ruoko rwenyu rworudyi runondimbundikira.
even there your hand will lead me, and your right hand will hold me.
11 Kana ndikati, “Zvirokwazvo rima richandivanza, uye chiedza chinondikomberedza chichava usiku kwandiri,”
If I say, “Surely the darkness will overwhelm me. The light around me will be night,”
12 kunyange rima haringavi rima kwamuri; usiku huchapenya samasikati, nokuti rima rakaita sechiedza kwamuri.
even the darkness does not hide from you, but the night shines as the day. The darkness is like light to you.
13 Nokuti imi makasika zvomukatikati mangu; makandiruka ndiri mudumbu ramai vangu.
For you formed my inmost being. You knit me together in my mother’s womb.
14 Ndinokurumbidzai nokuti ndakaitwa nomutoo unotyisa uye unoshamisa; mabasa enyu anoshamisa, ndinonyatsozviziva kwazvo.
I will give thanks to you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Your works are wonderful. My soul knows that very well.
15 Mapfupa angu akanga asina kuvanzika kwamuri, pandakanga ndaiswa munzvimbo yakavanda. Pandakarukwa ndiri pakadzika penyika,
My frame was not hidden from you, when I was made in secret, woven together in the depths of the earth.
16 meso enyu akaona muviri usati waumbwa. Mazuva ose andakarongerwa akanga akanyorwa mubhuku renyu, rimwe rawo risati ravapo.
Your eyes saw my body. In your book they were all written, the days that were ordained for me, when as yet there were none of them.
17 Mirangariro yenyu inokosha sei kwandiri, imi Mwari! Yakakura sei pakuverengwa kwayo!
How precious to me are your thoughts, God! How vast is their sum!
18 Dai ndaiverenga, ingadai yaikunda tsanga dzejecha pakuwanda. Pandinopepuka, ndinenge ndinemi.
If I would count them, they are more in number than the sand. When I wake up, I am still with you.
19 Dai mukangouraya vakaipa, imi Mwari! Endai kure neni, imi vanhu vokuteura ropa!
If only you, God, would kill the wicked. Get away from me, you bloodthirsty men!
20 Ivo vanotaura nemi nomurangariro wakaipa; vadzivisi venyu vanoshandisa zita renyu zvakaipa.
For they speak against you wickedly. Your enemies take your name in vain.
21 Ko, ini handivengi vanokuvengai here, imi Jehovha, nokusema vaya vanokumukirai?
LORD, do not I hate those who hate you? Am I not grieved with those who rise up against you?
22 Handina chimwe chinhu asi kuvavenga ivo; ndinovati vavengi vangu.
I hate them with perfect hatred. They have become my enemies.
23 Ndinzverei, imi Mwari, mugoziva mwoyo wangu; ndiedzei mugoziva kushuva kwendangariro dzangu.
Search me, God, and know my heart. Try me, and know my thoughts.
24 Muone kana musina nzira yakaipa mandiri, mugondifambisa munzira isingaperi.
See if there is any wicked way in me, and lead me in the everlasting way.
