Mapisarema 20

1 Kumutungamiri wokuimba. Pisarema raDhavhidhi. Jehovha ngaakupindure paunotambudzika; zita raMwari waJakobho ngarikudzivirire.

For the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. May the LORD answer you in the day of trouble; may the name of the God of Jacob protect you.

2 Ngaakutumire rubatsiro runobva panzvimbo tsvene, uye akupe rutsigiro runobva kuZioni.

May He send you help from the sanctuary and sustain you from Zion.

3 Ngaarangarire zvibayiro zvako zvose uye agogamuchira zvibayiro zvako zvinopiswa. Sera

May He remember all your gifts and look favorably on your burnt offerings.

4 Ngaakupe zvinodikanwa nomwoyo wako, uye aite kuti urongwa hwako hwose hubudirire.

May He give you the desires of your heart and make all your plans succeed.

5 Tichadanidzira nomufaro pakukunda kwako, uye tichasimudza mireza yedu muzita raMwari wedu. Jehovha ngaakupe zvose zvawakakumbira.

May we shout for joy at your victory and raise a banner in the name of our God. May the LORD grant all your petitions.

6 Zvino ndava kuziva kuti Jehovha anoponesa muzodziwa wake; anomupindura ari kudenga rake dzvene, nesimba rokuponesa kworuoko rwake rworudyi.

Now I know that the LORD saves His anointed; He answers him from His holy heaven with the saving power of His right hand.

7 Vamwe vanovimba nengoro, vamwe namabhiza, asi isu tinovimba nezita raJehovha Mwari wedu.

Some trust in chariots and others in horses, but we trust in the name of the LORD our God.

8 Vanowisirwa pasi namabvi avo vagowa, asi isu tinosimuka tigomira takasimba.

They collapse and fall, but we rise up and stand firm.

9 Haiwa Jehovha, ponesai mambo! Tipindurei patinodana!

O LORD, save the king. Answer us on the day we call.
