< Mapisarema 3 >

1 Pisarema raDhavhidhi. Panguva yaakatiza Abhusaromu mwanakomana wake. Haiwa Jehovha, vadzivisi vangu vakawanda sei! Vakawanda sei vanondimukira!
A Psalm of David. When he fled from the face of his son, Absalom. Lord, why have those who trouble me been multiplied? Many rise up against me.
2 Vazhinji vanoti kwandiri, “Mwari haangamudzikinuri.” Sera
Many say to my soul, “There is no salvation for him in his God.” (Pause)
3 Asi imi Jehovha, muri nhoo yakandipoteredza; munoisa rukudzo pandiri uye munosimudza musoro wangu.
But you, Lord, are my supporter, my glory, and the one who raises up my head.
4 Kuna Jehovha ndinodana nenzwi guru, uye anondipindura ari pagomo rake dzvene. Sera
I have cried out to the Lord with my voice, and he has heard me from his holy mountain. (Pause)
5 Ndinovata pasi ndigokotsira; ndinomukazve, nokuti Jehovha anonditsigira.
I have slept, and I have been stupefied. But I awakened because the Lord has taken me up.
6 Handizotyi makumi ezviuru vakandikomba kuti vandirwise.
I will not fear the thousands of people surrounding me. Rise up, Lord. Save me, my God.
7 Simukai, imi Jehovha! Ndirwirei, imi Mwari wangu! Rovai vavengi vangu vose pashaya; gurai meno avakaipa.
For you have struck all those who oppose me without cause. You have broken the teeth of sinners.
8 Rusununguko runobva kuna Jehovha. Maropafadzo enyu ngaave pamusoro pavanhu venyu. Sera
Salvation is of the Lord, and your blessing is upon your people. (Pause)
