Mapisarema 24

1 Pisarema raDhavhidhi. Nyika ndeyaJehovha, nezvose zviri mairi, nyika, navose vanogaramo;

On the first day of the week, a psalm for David. The earth is the Lord’s and the fulness thereof: the world, and all they that dwell therein.

2 nokuti akaiteya pamusoro pamakungwa uye akaisimbisa pamusoro pemvura zhinji.

For he hath founded it upon the seas; and hath prepared it upon the rivers.

3 Ndianiko angakwira pachikomo chaJehovha? Ndianiko angamira panzvimbo yake tsvene?

Who shall ascend into the mountain of the Lord: or who shall stand in his holy place?

4 Uyo ana maoko akachena nomwoyo wakanaka, asingasimudziri mwoyo wake kuzvifananidzo, kana kupika nhema.

The innocent in hands, and clean of heart, who hath not taken his soul in vain, nor sworn deceitfully to his neighbour.

5 Iye achagamuchira makomborero anobva kuna Jehovha nokururamiswa kunobva kuna Mwari woruponeso rwake.

He shall receive a blessing from the Lord, and mercy from God his Saviour.

6 Ivava ndivo rudzi rwaavo vanomutsvaka, ivo vanotsvaka chiso chenyu, imi Mwari waJakobho. Sera

This is the generation of them that seek him, of them that seek the face of the God of Jacob.

7 Simudzai misoro yenyu, imi masuo; muisimudze, imi makonhi akare, kuti Mambo wokubwinya apinde.

Lift up your gates, O ye princes, and be ye lifted up, O eternal gates: and the King of Glory shall enter in.

8 Ndianiko uyu Mambo wokubwinya? Ndiye Jehovha ane simba noumhare, Jehovha ane simba pakurwa.

Who is this King of Glory? the Lord who is strong and mighty: the Lord mighty in battle.

9 Simudzai misoro yenyu, imi masuo; muasimudze, imi makonhi akare, kuti Mambo wokubwinya apinde.

Lift up your gates, O ye princes, and be ye lifted up, O eternal gates: and the King of Glory shall enter in.

10 Ndianiko, uyu Mambo wokubwinya? Jehovha Wamasimba Ose, ndiye Mambo wokubwinya. Sera

Who is this King of Glory? the Lord of hosts, he is the King of Glory.
