Mapisarema 149

1 Rumbidzai Jehovha. Imbirai Jehovha rwiyo rutsva, rumbidzo yake paungano yavatsvene.

Hallelujah! Sing to the LORD a new song— His praise in the assembly of the godly.

2 Israeri ngavafarire Muiti wavo; vanhu veZioni ngavafarire Mambo wavo.

Let Israel rejoice in their Maker; let the children of Zion rejoice in their King.

3 Ngavarumbidze zita rake vachitamba, uye vamuridzire nziyo namatambureni nembira.

Let them praise His name with dancing, and make music to Him with tambourine and harp.

4 Nokuti Jehovha anofarira vanhu vake; vanozvininipisa anovashongedza korona noruponeso.

For the LORD takes pleasure in His people; He adorns the afflicted with salvation.

5 Vatsvene ngavafare nokukudzwa kwake, uye vaimbe nomufaro vari pamibhedha yavo.

Let the saints exult in glory; let them shout for joy upon their beds.

6 Kurumbidzwa kwaMwari ngakuve pamiromo yavo, nomunondo unocheka kwose, mumaoko avo,

May the high praises of God be in their mouths, and a double-edged sword in their hands,

7 kuti vatsive pamusoro pendudzi, uye varange marudzi avanhu,

to inflict vengeance on the nations and punishment on the peoples,

8 vasunge madzimambo avo nengetani, namakurukota avo nezvisungo zvamatare,

to bind their kings with chains and their nobles with shackles of iron,

9 kuti vaite zvavakatongwa nazvo, zvakanyorwa pamusoro pavo. Ndiko kukudzwa kwavatsvene vose. Rumbidzai Jehovha.

to execute the judgment written against them. This honor is for all His saints. Hallelujah!
