Mapisarema 28
1 Pisarema raDhavhidhi. Ndinodana kwamuri, imi Jehovha Dombo rangu; musandinyararira. Nokuti kana mukaramba munyerere, ini ndichaita savaya vakaburukira kugomba.
A Psalm of David. Unto thee, O LORD, do I call; my Rock, be not Thou deaf unto me; lest, if Thou be silent unto me, I become like them that go down into the pit.
2 Inzwai kuchemera ngoni kwangu, sezvo ndichichemera rubatsiro kwamuri, sezvo ndichisimudza maoko angu ndakatarira kuNzvimbo yenyu Tsvene-tsvene.
Hear the voice of my supplications, when I cry unto Thee, when I lift up my hands toward Thy holy Sanctuary.
3 Musandikwekweredzera kure pamwe chete navakaipa, naavo vanoita zvakaipa, vanotaura rugare navavakidzani vavo asi vakaviga zvakaipa mumwoyo yavo.
Draw me not away with the wicked, and with the workers of iniquity; who speak peace with their neighbours, but evil is in their hearts.
4 Vatsivei pamabasa avo napabasa ravo rakaipa, vatsivei pane zvakaitwa namaoko avo; mugodzosera pamusoro pavo zvakavafanira.
Give them according to their deeds, and according to the evil of their endeavours; give them after the work of their hands; render to them their desert.
5 Sezvo vasina hanya namabasa aJehovha uye nezvakaitwa namaoko ake, achavaputsira pasi akasavavakazve.
Because they give no heed to the works of the LORD, nor to the operation of His hands; He will break them down and not build them up.
6 Jehovha ngaarumbidzwe, nokuti akanzwa kuchemera kwangu ngoni.
Blessed be the LORD, because He hath heard the voice of my supplications.
7 Jehovha ndiye simba rangu nenhoo yangu; mwoyo wangu unovimba naye, uye ndinobatsirwa. Mwoyo wangu unokwakuka nomufaro uye ndichamuvonga nenziyo.
The LORD is my strength and my shield, in Him hath my heart trusted, and I am helped; therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth, and with my song will I praise Him.
8 Jehovha ndiye simba ravanhu vake, nhare yoruponeso yomuzodziwa wake.
The LORD is a strength unto them; and He is a stronghold of salvation to His anointed.
9 Ponesai vanhu venyu uye muropafadze nhaka yenyu; ivai mufudzi wavo uye muvatakure nokusingaperi.
Save Thy people, and bless Thine inheritance; and tend them, and carry them for ever.
