< Mapisarema 149 >
1 Rumbidzai Jehovha. Imbirai Jehovha rwiyo rutsva, rumbidzo yake paungano yavatsvene.
Hallelujah. Sing unto the LORD a new song, and His praise in the assembly of the saints.
2 Israeri ngavafarire Muiti wavo; vanhu veZioni ngavafarire Mambo wavo.
Let Israel rejoice in his Maker; let the children of Zion be joyful in their King.
3 Ngavarumbidze zita rake vachitamba, uye vamuridzire nziyo namatambureni nembira.
Let them praise His name in the dance; let them sing praises unto Him with the timbrel and harp.
4 Nokuti Jehovha anofarira vanhu vake; vanozvininipisa anovashongedza korona noruponeso.
For the LORD taketh pleasure in His people; He adorneth the humble with salvation.
5 Vatsvene ngavafare nokukudzwa kwake, uye vaimbe nomufaro vari pamibhedha yavo.
Let the saints exult in glory; let them sing for joy upon their beds.
6 Kurumbidzwa kwaMwari ngakuve pamiromo yavo, nomunondo unocheka kwose, mumaoko avo,
Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, and a two-edged sword in their hand;
7 kuti vatsive pamusoro pendudzi, uye varange marudzi avanhu,
To execute vengeance upon the nations, and chastisements upon the peoples;
8 vasunge madzimambo avo nengetani, namakurukota avo nezvisungo zvamatare,
To bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron;
9 kuti vaite zvavakatongwa nazvo, zvakanyorwa pamusoro pavo. Ndiko kukudzwa kwavatsvene vose. Rumbidzai Jehovha.
To execute upon them the judgment written; He is the glory of all His saints. Hallelujah.
