< 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 before Abshalom his son.” Lord, how numerous are my assailants! how many, that rise up against me!
2 Vazhinji vanoti kwandiri, “Mwari haangamudzikinuri.” Sera
Many say of my soul, There is no help for him with God. (Selah)
3 Asi imi Jehovha, muri nhoo yakandipoteredza; munoisa rukudzo pandiri uye munosimudza musoro wangu.
But thou, O Lord, art a shield around me, my glory, and he that lifteth up my head.
4 Kuna Jehovha ndinodana nenzwi guru, uye anondipindura ari pagomo rake dzvene. Sera
With my voice I call unto the Lord, and he answereth me out of his holy mountain. (Selah)
5 Ndinovata pasi ndigokotsira; ndinomukazve, nokuti Jehovha anonditsigira.
I laid myself down and slept: I awoke; for the Lord sustaineth me.
6 Handizotyi makumi ezviuru vakandikomba kuti vandirwise.
I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people, that have placed themselves round about against me.
7 Simukai, imi Jehovha! Ndirwirei, imi Mwari wangu! Rovai vavengi vangu vose pashaya; gurai meno avakaipa.
Arise, O Lord, help me, O my God; for thou smitest all my enemies upon the cheek bone: the teeth of the wicked dost thou break.
8 Rusununguko runobva kuna Jehovha. Maropafadzo enyu ngaave pamusoro pavanhu venyu. Sera
Salvation belongeth unto the Lord: thy blessing be upon thy people. (Selah)
