Mapisarema 20

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

For the music director. A psalm of David. May the Lord answer you when you are in trouble; may the name of the God of Jacob protect you.

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

May the Lord send you help from the sanctuary, and may he support you from Zion.

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

May the Lord remember all your offerings, and accept all your burnt sacrifices. (Selah)

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

May the Lord give you whatever you really want; may he make all your plans successful.

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

May we shout for joy over your victory, and set up banners in the name of our God. May the Lord answer all your requests.

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 the one he has anointed. He will answer him from his holy heaven, and save his anointed by his powerful right hand.

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

Some trust in chariots and some in war horses, but we trust in who the Lord our God is.

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

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

9 Haiwa Jehovha, ponesai mambo! Tipindurei patinodana!

May the Lord save the king! Please answer us when we call for help!
